Craft Closet Organized

The Georgia Tech Office closet...aka my craft room.

Paul Frank Scrub Shirt...still waiting to be made into bathroom curtain when I redo a kids bathroom.

Walls of inspiration and fun.

Colorful neatly arranged shelves.

Note the white glass house full of Yo Yo's

Come on in. My craft closet is now organized. I need to hang a few pictures...but things are in place. Last week when mom was here we straightened it out. And while I always have hopes of sitting in here and sewing...it always ends up happening in the kitchen so Ba-Boo can play. Please over look the duct tape on the gift bag full of bags. I am southern girl after all...duct tape is in almost every drawer. (My favorite part is the white glass house full of fabric Yo Yo's that my mom made many years ago...they are spilling out and now visible...so I will use them!)

Thank you MOM! ! !

I still need to show all the treats she got me at the fabric store that was closing.

Cleaning Closets






It needs to be done. I want to be more crafty...so cleaning and organizing...must happen. (It wasn't horrible terrible...it just all needs a place and a label.) So up stairs...left room...guest room...threw away 2 huge bags of trash...like gift bags and tissue paper...that I do not need SO much? Still needs work...room is/was clean and the closet still screams for help (it is full of home decor...where do I put this stuff...mirrors, shelves, picture frames, bowls, fake greenery)!

Room on the right...the office and it's closet...my sewing/craft closet. Cleaning it out...going through 401K papers etc...old college folders...why do I still have this crap? Well I don't anymore. It is not totally ready for viewing yet either. But big strides have been made.

C.J. spotted one of my old running medals hanging in my trophy room/craft closet. Yeah...I use to run...cross country...by choice.

(Oh and that Lee University chair is not stolen...Jake just borrowed it for his kids to use...and then they'll return it to campus one day. Shhhhh.)

Spring Cleaning



Oh yeah...points for me...I talked my hubbie into helping me trim up the backyard today (it helped that it is sunny and 65 degrees). I LOVE to work in the yard (he does not)...but behind our first fence (where Jake was stationed) I know there are snakes...I saw a little black one in the fall...and I am not going back there. The blackberries vines were taking over...and while they feed C.J. a 1/2 cup a day or more during the summer...my Neenaw always says where there are blackberries...there are snakes. There are still a million blackberry vines/bushes whatever they are...back there so perhaps after we clean up a bit more...I'll stake some to eat. So 1/2 the back yard down...and 1/2 to go! ! !
