53.555868,-113.488957- Crafting Haven!

My crafting haven now has a permanent address! We had an extra room in our house that was sitting empty after we let a friend in need use the bed that was occupying it! "What to do with all this space?" was the thought that was running through my head.... I have always wanted an area that was solely dedicated to crafting and all the messiness that it entails. Andrew was also keen on the notion as it would mean that all my mess would be confined to one area... (ha ha ha) So we set about reorganizing and purging(its amazing how much stuff one can collect in attempts of recycling, scavenging... or the thought..."hmmm this will come in useful later" which, sadly, it never does) and we came up with a glorious work room! On one side is all my craft paraphernalia and on the other- in the closet is our computer desk/Andrews recording area! We took the mirrored doors of the closet and are going to make built in desk and shelves to better organize and utilize our space, but over all I am SO happy my sewing machines now have a place to call home.(previously when I wasn't using them the cats liked to sleep on them) This endeavor took way more time than I thought.... a couple days.... with a baby you can never work straight through.... but it was all worth it!!!! Here is a picture!

The box below the desk is FULL of tomatoes!
This is the MASSIVE plant I picked all the tomatoes from-
It started as an itty bitty 3 inch plant!

When I picked the plant clean I filled this box half full-

I sorted all my tomatoes so they would ripen

I cleaned my garden out and with its produce, I now have a pot of beet borscht simmering on the stove - my favorite soup of all time! Ahhh I love the fall and harvest time! More posts to come as I am determined in the next week to finish off at least a few of several projects I have going!!!

Love Love!

p.s. Unfortunately as I write this blog I am listening to nothing.... the audio isn't working for our computer...
