Closet Cleanup!


The holiday's are coming and it is time for another closet cleanup. 
I really love to throw things in drawers and closets,
so this month my goal is to clean another closet, and throw the junk OUT! 

Here is one that I did this last year.  I love this closet now! 

One goal at a time!

Time to redecorate daughter's bedroom

If I could quit doing crafts, maybe I could get some things done around the house!

I need to redecorate Becca's bedroom.  I have so many ideas... now I need some energy and time! 

Love the white bedding... but is it really the brick that I love???
I wonder what my husband would think
if he came home to me putting used brick on the wall? Ha!

ooooo, look at that fabric.
reminds me of old Hollywood.
 chandi...a must! (sorry Bec's)

This makes me smile too!

I think I love this, however is it really the dress form that I want?

I can't decide... what is your favorite?

I think it's time for CRAFTING INTERVENTION!

The house is a mess!  I am truly ashamed.  This is not good for someone who acts OCD at cleaning house!  And how am I suppose to sew at this desk???  And just think I've given classes and seminars on ORGANIZATION SKILLS... YIKES.  There goes my credibility!



I haven't cooked all week, I can't even use the left-over excuse tonight.

Family... I'm thinking INTERVENTION needed


















 I keep making things.... stop me! 





I've officially lost my mind...
I'm making man-made bird nests. 


flower broach anyone?

Loving God and Loving People

We had the great opportunity to bless a lady from church yesterday, who lives in a trailer that needed some TLC.  It was a great day to see 20+ adults and youth come and serve this sweet woman.  I was truly astonished the change a little paint can make, but the joy in the hearts of those that served is far more amazing.
 Before

After :)
 
It puts a smile on my face when I see teens and young adults want to serve others!

Burlap on the Brain!


BURLAP....  here, there, EVERYWHERE.
yikes!

I'm seriously thinking of driving to JoAnn's today to buy a bolt ($19.99 w/coupon) and firing up the sewing machine... it's time to get burlap serious, with the boutique only 5 weeks away, I need to make lots of things.

Remnants of the Past was amazing.  What a wonderful weekend. 
It does the heart good to have lots of fun and laugh until you cry.

Looking forward to the next show... and maybe one on Thousand Hills Ranch this next year??? 
 I can't think of a more wonderful spot for a antique/vintage show!
