Fresh Air!


Wow! It sure has been too long since I've posted here at my blog. All is well, I've just been really busy. I've been concentrating on my health and fitness plan because I'm not getting any younger. Less time on the computer means less time on my butt. I even cleaned out (and scrubbed) two kitchen cabinets today! My plan is to do one or two a week.

I've also been organizing my sewing and craft supplies, and making some new things for my room. We are hoping to get the shelves hung next week. I know it seems like it's taking forever but when hubby works 40+ hours a week, he can only do so much. He is doing a wonderful job because he wants me to have the best craft/sewing room a person could have.

So far:
Shelves are completely built. Just need to add the finish and hang.
Murphy bed is finished. Just need to buy new linens.
Sewing machine is set up in the room along with a temporary work table.
Craft supplies are getting organized into boxes, jars, drawers, etc.
All fabric is wrapped! You can see that process here.
Made the curtains. You can see them here.
Made a new ironing board. A tutorial soon to follow.
Bought LOTS of stylish storage containers.

Left to do:
More organizing.
Make a wall organizer to match room.
Make a roman blind for my fabric & supply shelves.
Make the shelves on each side of the Murphy bed (Hubby).
Make a great and functional work table (Hubby).
Make a sewing machine table (Hubby).

There is still a lot to do but it's so much fun organizing!

On another note, the weather has been unseasonably warm. We're breaking all kinds of records! Punkie is really enjoying the open window. I know it's hard to see a black at against the night view in the window, but she's there.
