I'm Back!

Hello everyone! It's been ages since my last post, and I've got lots of projects to share! I thought I'd start with one that puts a huge grin on my face- my very own craft room! I moved at the end of June last year, and the place we moved into is amazing, with space for me to have a craft room and my boyfriend to have a man cave. In my old place, when I crafted it often looked like this:



I called it the craft tornado! Ha ha. I would end up taking over my desk, the dining room table, and a lot of floor space too. I got even more creative when I had to make 75 wedding invitations and response cards in the middle of my big move, and did this:



It actually worked pretty well- I used the top of a disassembled desk that I bought second-hand before moving, and turned my bed into my work space! Unfortunately, that also meant a lot of clean-up had to be done before I was able to sleep...

When I got my new craft room, it looked like this:



Pretty boring... 

I like colour, so I painted and decorated, and made it my own. Now it's a fun and organized space that inspires me to create! Here are some pics of what it looks like at the moment (it's always a work in progress, continually changing as I figure what I like, and what needs to be different...):








That's it for now- hope you enjoyed the tour! Stay tuned for more posts...

P.S.- The colourful shelves on the far right of the last picture are filled with cards that I've made up in hopes of selling!

  2. Love the pics and the space; hate the text. Some darkish colour on a purple background has too little contrast for these tired old eyes. Just sayin'... :-)
