It's A Start
The craft area.....
This is an old bulletin board that I covered in fabric just like Patti did!! I added a pocket to mine so that I can keep Sharpies or pencils in it. I bet you are a bit confused by the clown pic there on the board since you are all very aware of my LOATHING of clowns. That is M2 and I love that photo of her. That was from when she hid in my office in her clown suit on my b-day. ~grins~ I am so loved.
I bought simple wooden letters and covered them with paper. I used Mod Podge to get it all to stick. On the letter J is the word *imagine* and on the letter Y is the word *bloom*.

And my JOY letters. Joy is my favorite word. I lose my joy all of the time. I just lay it down and walk off. I think I am beginning to find it again as I dig out from under things. Finding my joy but still have not found that silly rent check!

ReplyDeleteme? well today is Tottis' last day of living with us. We had a party last night - today she's been doing last minute sewing for me - putting off the packing I think - and I've been wandering around the house. I have been tidying - mostly because I too am looking for things. I found my tax card HALLELUJAH - and now my insurance papers so I can send those off. Still lots to decluter but it's been a good way to spend the day and avoid writing an assignment for seminary (grin)
I am so thankful for Tottis having lived her for the past six months - a sister to me cum surrogate daughter and an awesom big sister to DD. Oh we'll miss her - we've loved having her as part of our family 24/7
thanks for asking!
El Jefe and I are off on a Road Trip! I'm afraid it's too early for bluebonnets, though.
ReplyDeleteWe're in Austin today for a dinner honoring one of his clients at the Texas Historical Museum--which should be really cool. Then we're meeting up with friends for tours of some museums in Hillsboro and Ft. Worth before heading home Sunday.
Hope you have a great weekend, too!
Mindy, your craft area looks great! And, you bring us so much joy by just being you.
ReplyDeleteMe? Today? I took 1/2 a day off. My husband was in town so I met him for lunch (real Texas b-b-q - yum). Then I took some donations to the thrift store. Now I'm taking a break from cleaning my apartment. I even cleaned RT's room - that took most of the afternoon. And, I'm with you on the magic erasers; they're great for cleaning the bathroom.
Hey! I left a comment here this morning! @#!$%! you Blogger!
ReplyDeleteAnyway, LOL at your Joy-ful wit.
Today I worked for rich guy, organizing his money and bills. Then picked up Wonderboy. After his homework is done, delightful child stuff shall begin.
What a lovely board and craft area!!
ReplyDeleteI too am thankful for Sharpies. What did we ever do without them???
I love your new craft area, and I wish you many joyful hours of crafting :)
ReplyDeleteI love your crafty spot - it looks like its full of cool stuff! (That picture of M2 is the best damn picture EVER!) So what are you going to make first in your snazzy spot?
