I didn't have time to craft "Booooo" wasn't a happy camper that's for sure, but I needed to get my little corner in order before I could master a few scrappy things ツ
See, I "use" to have my own crafting room up until a year ago when it was decluttered, repainted & converted into a nursery room instead oh {happy happy joy joy}. So then my lovely husband bought me a little white crafting table from Michaels & moved me in to a little corner in the dining room, however that was short lived once he saw how MUCH more space I needed to craft I mean I was ALL over the dining room LOL. So we rearranged our family room & positioned myself towards another tiny space with no shelves, no room for wiggle.. and of course did I mention out in the OPEN? oh yes, so needles to say it has to be tidy & well organized.
I have to admit, as of lately I have not been the most organized person .. so much so, I was losing countless time trying to "think" thru the mess. I decided to have my very own intervention - craftyvention! LOL
How messy was this tiny little space you ask? well.. {don't judge - I wanna see your space} LOL
this is my little scrap of heaven.. or lack there of!
ok ok.. I know "WOWZER" but truth be told, it didn't look so bad I kept piling everything on the desk from ea space I worked on AROUND the house.
after 2 hours in to cleaning this is how it looked..{below}
I was finally able to see the cutting mat LOL
I so need a better way of organizing, any suggestions for someone with limited space?
Whaaalaaa! yup nice & tidy again.
After 4 1/2 hrs I def earned a foot massage & a glass of wine. Too bad I got neither :( but at least my area is clean again heehee.
Thank you for reading my daily blog, I try to bring humor .. hope you enjoyed & please leave comments or suggestions as to how or what I can do to organize myself more in this tiny spot.

Hey Chica, Can you pull that table forward & maybe put some of those white cube organizers against the wall. Then you could get the fabric drawers. Also containers for under the table. You can hide w/ a table skirt. I hope i helped a little. Love you chica, Lynn
ReplyDeleteThanks for the suggestions.. yes I do have clear 3 tier bins right against the right corner of the table (didn't show it) . I think adding those boxes under the table is a great idea. I already have two, but the dwn fall is that the baby crawls under & gets ahold of everything :( I just might consider a table skirt. Thanks Hun!
DeleteWell i can't really help you lol because i have the same problem maybe you can help me i don't even have a little corner i need at least a table so right now i'm in my girls bedrooms,i was in the kitchen but it was a big mess and to open to whoever visit me so now is hiding in the room but still messy.Please help jajajaja.Many blessings and love for your new blog
ReplyDeleteA BIG contrats to you Janet. I am sure you will enjoy your scrappy space even it if it out in the open. One year from now you will have so much stuff piled around you that no one will be able to see you anyway!! Pinkalicious Hugs, Jonnie
ReplyDeletehaahaa I know huh! well I will be no hoarder that's for sure. LOL thanks for coming by Jonnie.
DeleteI can totally empathize with you because I, too, craft in a tiny corner only it's in my bedroom. It takes me forever to think about & sort through my boxes of supplies so that I can figure out what will work with that particular project I happen to be working on. Great job with your blog! Hugs! Patrice
