WOYWW 175

You might not believe this but the room is spotless!

I spent yesterday cleaning and reorganizing most things.  I can't say i did organize everything because i don't think i will ever be completely organised.

Last week while surfing the web i came across some very organized, beautiful rooms and was so inspired to get mine done.  It has only been over a year since it was repainted and redone, and i never finished it all then.

I'm quite happy with how it is looking right not, and with a few minor things to go i will be done for a while.

Here is my desk and notice how clean!  Wonder how long it will last!

I cut the wall words out myself with my xyron wishblade and put the rod up to hold up all the ribbon.  Finally took all my stamps in the brown bins and put them onto my paper stand for easier access.  I moved all my baskets to my desk as they are the most common things i use all the time.  Enjoy your look ground and if you like what you see follow along with the fabulous Julia.

We went away camping for the weekend and had a great time.  The weather was absolutely beautiful for the end of September.  The kids had a great time playing in the leaves and even swimming. Thank goodness for heated pools!
My daughter finally got her cast off and is doing much better.  She is still a little hesitant using it but that is normal.  She has the task of building up her strength in it again.

I have been keeping busy with getting some cards made.  I wish i could spend all day and everyday in my craft room but that is just not possible.  I even got it all cleaned up finally but have dragged a few things out to work on.  So have a little peek at the somewhat tidy space.  If you would love to see more head on over to Julia's page and follow along.


 To all the people who follow along Scraps of life by scrappymo! she has finally had her back surgery yesterday and my understanding is she is painful but otherwise doing good.

Wow, it has been about three months since the time i visited this wonderful website.  I cannot believe how busy i have been and now things are starting to settle down.
I have missed participating in Julia's weekly addiction.  So come on the fun and fascinating  tour of other peoples desks and enjoy our works of art.

It has been literally months upon months of trying to get in the door of the scrap room, but it seems I'm destine to pile more and more things into my creative space.  Now with some free time on my hands i hope to get it organized and tidied over the next couple of weeks.

My son is having his 4th birthday party at the end of October and i need to get the room cleaned to work on some creations for him.  This is one thing i have found time to work on as favors for his party.
My goal is to have it finished and complete by mid October so i can begin Christmas cards and all the fun for the season.
Come follow along on the magical computer ride!

WOYWW!!!

Wow don't know the last time i posted on WOYWW, but happy to be back.  Feel free to join along with Julia and the rest of us as we showcase our workplace.
Mine is a piled up mess:(

I have just been so busy and tired, as hubby is away, that i never find the time to go downstairs and clean up.  As a matter of fact everything from my card class is still spread out on the dinning room table and all my stuff i took to the all day crop on Saturday is sitting in my kitchen.  But i am planning on using it tonight.
Today after my doctor appointment i made a visit to Michael's and you can see what i purchased.  I forgot to include all the beautiful colored flowers i bought for hair accessories.  But love my teal colored butterfly drawer pulls!
Anyways, enjoy looking at all the wonderful spaces.  Have a great Wednesday!

WOYWW #145

Wow, can't believe it is Wednesday again.  I missed two weeks from here.  Just was not feeling very well.  Now I'm doing a bit better and wanting to get into the swing of things.  So here what is on my desk.  I have been busy trying to catch up on scrapbooking.  I was about two and a half years behind with the kids and thought i was getting it done but realized I'm missing a years worth of photos.  And too make matters worse,  my computer with the photos on them has crashed.
This weekend I'm attending an all day crop and what am i going to work on.  If your new to this take a visit over at the wonderful Julia's stamping ground to follow along with all the wonderful blog hoppers.
Have a wonderful Wednesday.

WOYWW #142

Here we are again on Wednesday and i can hardly believe that it is almost the end of February.  Wow it has gone by so quick but looking forward to getting nicer weather here.  This rain has to STOP!!!
So as you can see i have a project on the go.  I am trying desperately to finish my daughters birthday invites.  But im just not getting too far.

 I also added photos of the shelf many of you have been commenting about.  My husband made it for me a couple years ago for my birthday..  It is filled with ribbon and flowers and wish i had 2 more shelves like it.






  Also included is my paper shelf.  It is organized but could be neater.  Just love it though!
If your new at this then head over to THE WONDERFUL JULIA and follow along on what is probably the worlds largest blog hop.
HAVE FUN PEEKING!

WOYWW #141!!!

Wow it is here again.  Honestly, i had the room all cleaned up but i took out the sewing machine than worked on making tutus, and a mess!  See for yourself, join Julia and all the other fantastically clean workspace or maybe not so clean, you be the judge
So i spent around eight hours getting the room all straightened.  I managed somehow to put everything back in it's correct place and even emptying out bags that had been in the closet for two years, wow for me!!!.  So once i had the desk cleared off (took computer and put in my husbands office), i then put everything i needed to sort on the desk and worked from there.  I was quite proud of myself for getting it all done but now it is messy again, ok maybe not all that messy!
Right now i have the sewing machine, some fabric, junk to be sorted and my February counterfeit kit on my desk.  Lucky for me i got some super cute Valentine pictures of the kids so i can use the kit to scrapbook them.
I hope everyone else is enjoying their WOYWW!  Now the task of getting through everyone.  It took me about 12 hours to make it through everyone, so enjoy.

WOYWW CHECK IT OUT!

Ok i  have to admit that i have always been interested in WOYWW,  (check out the wonderful Julia's blog to follow along), but just have never had the time to really get into it, But now i am making time.  Yeah for me!!  I am trying my hardest to keep up with my blog everyday but so far I have failed on the weekends.
A year ago i decided i wanted to make over my craft room.  So in January I packed up my room and put most of it in our rec room and the rest that the kids could not touch, in my  husbands office.  My husband went to Germany for six weeks last January so when he returned in March he was going to do it.  Well one thing led to another and the last weekend in September he finished my room.  It looked amazing for one month then it looked like a bomb went off in it!  By Christmas i couldn't even get in the door.  Over the holidays i once again cleaned it all up and three days later my computer blew up.  So my husband started rebuilding my still not working computer and decided to build not just one but two on top of the counter.  So once again the room became a collecting ground for everything.  Does anyone else have this problem?!!! So my goal this week while my husband is away is to get it all put back together again and re-organize it.  Lets see how i make out.
So this is how it looks right now!              YUCKY!!!!!

This is taken standing in the hallway looking in.  I had to climb over several bags just to take this picture!

As you can see the counter top is full, no where for me to work.

Lots and lots or sorting to do.  No i do not store cereal in my room i am saving the boxes for albums.
Cant wait to see how the week goes hopefully next week these pictures will be totally different.
Enjoy your Wednesday!
