This blog is a snippet of my life as a wife, mother, sister, aunt, cousin, friend. I may post once a week or several times a day depending on what's going on, so feel free to stop in from time to time and join me.

Craft room
I took a few days off work to celebrate my birthday and to relax before sports, school, family and life in general kick in. So what did I do over this time....well where do I start
I shifted the boy out of his space upstairs into my sisters spare room(looks good to) and I moved into his empty space and created what I call craft heaven. My inlaws had a door left over from their old house which I converted into a table and used concrete blocks that my dad had lying around into desk legs. There is also a low standing wooden cabinet that I have yet to find room for.
When I look back at the space I used to use it makes me wonder how I ever managed in such a confined area AND NOW that I have layed all my things out - wow how did i ever accumulate so much ...yikes.
I've moved things around slightly since this photo was taken but it gives you and idea of what I now enjoy.
I have placed everything that I use most in front of me and things I use less frequently in a shelving unit or in plastic drawers. I can now visual see all of my supplies and if I didn't buy another thing for the next couple of years I'd still have heaps.
I may also do some stock taking and put some unopened items on Trademe so i put this money towards more supplies in the form of tools or technology.
I would also like to mention that this couldn't have been done without my loving, supportive and long suffering husband who really does endulge my every whim - within reason...lol.

Blog list amendment
Following the paper trail (youtube) = Follow the paper trail (blog). There is a blog called following the paper trail which belongs to someone completely different but just has cool. I'm following both - you be the judge
