Craft Room Organization
Organizing is one of my favorite things. I know….you are probably thinking I am crazy! Well, you would be right! I am a little crazy, but aren’t we all? I think that sorting and organizing, and re-arranging things so they are easier to find and more usable is super exciting. I like the process and I love the end result. I especially LOVE organizing my newly decorated craft room. I like sorting through all my fun craft trinkets. I always find things that I forgot I even had! The process of craft room organization ALWAYS inspires me to want to get my craft on and create things!!
I can talk about this topic forever, so I will spare you the forever long blog post and just highlight a few of my favorite ways to organize my craft supplies. If you have any questions about how I organized something in my craft room or how to organize something in yours, just ask!! I would be happy to share any tips or ideas I have. Not that I am an expert, but I will say it again, I LOVE TO ORGANIZE things. I should probably see someone about that!!! 🙂
My favorite way to use things is to take advantage of the space on the walls, and shelves and not only organize things but make them look pretty. Organization and decoration at the same time, beautiful and functional! Awesome! I used some open frames to hang my bakers twine. That way it wasn’t stuffed in a drawer someplace I would forget about it, or have to dig it out when I wanted to use it. Continue reading

Lately I have been crushing hard on chalkboard paint! I change my mind A LOT and chalk boards are seriously perfect decorations for someone who is often changing things up!
I made this banner for my daughter’s 5th birthday a few weeks ago. Super easy. Here is the supply list: Continue reading

Paint Your Own Rug
I love things that are free. Who doesn’t? In my world free is a word that makes my insides do a happy dance. Often times I will bring home things that were free just because they were “free”. My husband is not super excited about this tendency of mine to collect and bring into our home free things that I find. One time I brought a couch home from bulk trash. (where people put things they don’t want in front of their house for garbage pick up) In my defense I was going to recover that couch, it had a cool shape. My husband insisted I take that thing out to the curb before he even got home from work! In his defense, he was probably Continue reading

Piano Makeover
I have played the piano since I was 7. I took lessons until my junior year in high school when I decided I was way TOO cool, and didn’t have enough time for practicing anymore. I started teaching lessons to kids when I was 15 and haven’t stopped. I currently have 19 students and I LOVE teaching kids (and several select adults – wink) how to play the piano. This instrument has my heart. I love to play and listen to others play, those piano keys Continue reading

Craft Room it UP!
Oh man! Today’s post is like crack for my soul! Yes..I said crack. No..I don’t actually do crack, crack is not a joke. But sometimes there comes along something in my life that makes me feel so happy, that I feel like I am on a high I just don’t wanna come down from. Hence, the crack reference. But just like crack is no laughing matter, neither my friends, is my newly decorated and organized craft room! Every time I enter this room I feel energized and excited. It makes me want to create and never leave. It’s my safe haven in the place I call home. Other rooms in my house are not wholly mine, they get taken over on a daily basis by the little gremlins I call my beloved children. Gremlins that destroy and make messes, whine, cry and generally run amok. My craft room however is above all of that. No whiny gremlin children are allowed. I have placed a strict NO whining and NO crying and NO complaining ban at the doors of said craft room. So far, success! My children are sent packing out of this room as soon as I even get a hint of negativity. This room is my special place. I haven’t had my own room since I was a teenager. I went off to college and had roommates, then got married and gained an eternal roommate who I love to pieces, but let’s face it he Continue reading
