As much as I have enjoyed reading about how neat & tidy everybody thinks my new craft area is (and I have... it is very nice..!), I am afraid I cannot live a lie.
I am the messiest person I have ever met. I wish I had met one of those hoarder people they show on bad current affairs telly, just so that that wouldn't be the case, but I haven't & I am.
My lovely new craft cabinet is so very neat & purty because I've not actually done any down & dirty crafting there yet - just really used it as a bench for the few days it has been in existence.
I am already having doubts about my ability to happily pull out my machines if and when I want to sew, and then.... put them back. I hope that I will feel somewhat obliged to keep the space tidy since it is in the lounge room, mostly because Le Punk would get up to mischief aplenty if I left it all "undone", but the reality remains to be seen.
My Mother has photos of my bedroom from various stages in my childhood - in most it is hard to even see the bed, if not impossible.
Which brings me to my "other" Creative Space I boasted so happily about yesterday.
That space meant to inspire my artistic sensibilities & creative vision.
*coughs*
I have MANY excuses as to why it looks like that, but I doubt any of them would really fly.... I mean, I can only really blame Punky for the stuff she can reach, can't I?
Basically I pilfered all the nice crafty stuff & placed it ever so prettily into my new cabinet - laying this area to waste.
I'm going to clean it up.
Again.
Really I am.
You've made me feel better, my "sewing space" is messy too, only problem is, each time I clean up inspiration strikes!
ReplyDeleteAhh, now we're talking! A girl after my own heart, phew! ;)
ReplyDeleteIf it makes you feel any better, there was a lady on Oprah who hoarded so much stuff that she had 10 000 square metres of stuff laid out when it was removed. It took over 100 people over 2 weeks to clean her house..and find the mold and rats' nests...Actually, I'm not worried if it doesn't make you feel better- cos I feel damn good about the mess at my house now lol!
ReplyDeletelol Tas... that DOES make me feel better!
ReplyDeleteI want you to fess up with the evidence of your messes now girls...! :P
