Easy as riding a bike!


Yesterday I experienced blowing snow, a freezing cold draft, hard slugging and lots of sweat equity in my cleaning.  :(



Today the sun is shining, a window is open, ease as the last bits move into place and lots of glowing!  :)

I'm not sure this book case will stay but I've never worked from the end of the table, the light isn't being blocked, and it will stop me from piling things on those two lower cupboards.  The ceramic houses are for my series project so they are handy and again, I won't stash stuff up there.  ;^)

When I was shuffling fabric around it really irritated me that I hadn't moved the extension cord from between the middle and the last unit.  I had it in the middle for access but I don't need it there anymore.  So while I was tweaking the shelves I moved that cord behind the last unit and closer to the ironing station.  I hate cords all over the place.  Then I saw the nice wicker basket on the top shelf holding garment patterns. eek!  Since I had already removed the fashion fabrics and the how to fit and how to sew books, I clenched my teeth and refused to be enticed by the flashy, flirty models! okay, so I saved a couple  :}   Often when I clean things up, I cheat with a few short cuts.  This is feeling so very nice.  :]

I imagine this storage area will evolve with the using but I am terribly pleased with how well it looks!

Disclosure:  While I feel I have been very diligent in getting right down to corners and floor washing;  I didn't do drawers.  And the craft shelving unit is not as congested but I didn't do every shelf.  I also have two trays of paper stuff to go through. BUT,  I am feeling so good!   Perhaps I could now try unicycling!!!!

Things are sure looking beautiful in your sewing space these days, and I see I have missed a fair bit too, so I will catch up too. I love the new blog header/title.

Splendiferous! I'm not game to show my room - it is an absolute tip. I don't much like that, but I hate "wasting" good sewing time on cleaning. LOL
