Happy WOYWW. Last week after Wed my space has been once again moved out of the room to paint the floors. We had white floors but they started to look too dirty and show to much of everything that we settled on a blue grey that is just wonderful but it has caused a lot of moving things from one space to the next just to paint. So I've mostly just organized some of my stash to make it more compact, and tidy the DH finds the room with our computer and my Crafty disaster corner always unsightly. To be honest it's tough to make your craft supplies look good. I want to get a little drawer unit to hide away most of my stuff and remove some of the boxes but he thinks if you get more storage you'll get more stuff. ... maybe lol.
Room Freshly Painted and Craft all moved off
Me moved off to another room for a few days
that was just painted and empty at the moment
What showed up in my mailbox on Monday a box filled with
treats from Lisa WOW so much and there was some H20 paints
those I love and all the colours she sent I didn't own AMAZING!!!
they got put away quickly
So Now I'm back in my space and everything is mostly back
along with my reorganizing yet again trying to tidy it up some more
We put the computer table right beside my crafty space and now the room feels really
open which is nice. I haven't done much crafting mostly just moving and I can't help myself I love making storage to tuck things away and try to keep it neat looking
but it is a struggle lol there is so much wonderful stuff out there but I do try to behave :)
Happy Woyww
and thanks for visiting
hugs Nikki
Your space is looking good Nikki. New goodies in the mail.Just what you need if you can't make much at the moment.You can dream about what you'll do with all those supplies! I love the H2O's so twinkly and sparkly.

Wow!It's like Christmas and your birthday all rolled into one! Time to celebrate! What a lovely place to play! patsy
ReplyDeleteWell I think your space looks great - you could always show your OH my space if he needs a wake up call... that might help your cause! Happy WOYWW and thanks for visiting already. Helen #2 oh, and great goodies from Lisa.
ReplyDeleteWell, if |DH won't let you buy more storage why not make some with used boxes etc. I love making boxes from boxes if you follow.
ReplyDeleteGreat room painting, I cannot believe you had a floor painted white - how on earth did you keep that clean?
Hugs from a curious Neet 1 xx
Why behave? Life is too short to follow rules lol. Looks a comfy chair. Happy WOYWW Vicky #3
ReplyDeleteI love moving stuff and sorting out too! It's all looking good...but don't try to behave, be yourself!! :-)
ReplyDeleteHugs, LLJ 14 xx
When I see how you are moving and tidy it all and... I then got inspiration to start tidying up me hall, and to remove a cabinet so that on that space I can put my crafting station and have more room for me :)

Your space is looking very bright and cheerful Nikki. I think you DH is probably right !!! How nice to get goodies from your friend. I like the look of that big collage stamp that's on top. Have a lovely day. Barbxx #16
ReplyDeleteheheh I love how you created a cosy crafting "island" for yourself - my crafty space is one of THE most important parts of the house to me :o) Have fun settling back in :o) Annie C #25
ReplyDeleteYour floor looks great! And what a sweet space you have. It is so true about more space, more supplies! I have been crafting for several years and I have taken over a whole room! Now I'm always looking for more ways to find more space...another room...maybe!

Your space looks really light and airy, very organised. The grey will be much more practical than the white, no doubt. How great to get extra goodies in the mail, Judith xx #32
ReplyDeleteYour space is looking great!!! I'm so jealous!
ReplyDeleteDiane - WOYWW #31
Your crafty corner looks neat and tidy! I have one those plastic tower units with lots of drawers - I love it! What you want is something tall with a small footprint to take up as little space as possible. I might get another one, actually as the one I have is already full! And you're right, as soon as you get extra storage, you want to fill it up! It's a never ending cycle! Happy WOYWW! zsuzsa #34
ReplyDeleteLooks great, the floor colour is really nice. I'm loving how tidy it all is, and not surprised that you haven't had time to craft! I have to agree with your husband..if you buy a set of drawers (good idea, by the way) you will use them for new stas/more stash. Moving existing stash into them may very well be against the law of something!
ReplyDeleteNice looking space! Sometimes places just need a little sprucing up. I like all your new goodies. It's always nice to see new stash.

Hi Nikki,
ReplyDeleteYour space looks great! How nice to have it so organized and looking so clean. How fun that you received happy mail and it's not something that you already had! Very cool.
Yep, guess I'm a branded girl. That cracked me up!
Thanks for visiting me already. I'm "sneaking around" while at work.
Happy WOYWW

Love your tidy space but I can't imagine how you managed with white floors!
ReplyDeleteDon't you just love receiving goodies in the mail ?!? :-)

Pleased to see you're back were you belong Nikki. Have a great woyww and happy crafting, Angela x 22
ReplyDeleteYour art room looks wonderful. Lots of lovely new art supplies to use now.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for stopping by - happy WOYWW.
Nikki, Your crafting area looks organised to me. Must admit I have a lot of stuff on bookshelves and I would prefer to have everything tucked away in cupboards, so I have been on the look out for a suitable cupboard.

Hi Nikki! I really like that floor color. Very soothing. I'm still trying to put stuff away in the studio as well. We have dubbed it 'the clown car' LOL Just when I think I'm making headway, something else appears :-) Creative Blessings! ~Kelly #49
ReplyDeleteyour work space looks great, love the floor
ReplyDeleteJill
Oh, Nikki, it's just so hard to behave when it comes to crafty things, isn't it?! Sigh. Never mind. Your room looks great - the floor colour is lovely - just right for stirring up those creative urges. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteTake care. God bless.

A very tidy and organised craft room - I find when you actually start crafting though, it tends to get messy very quickly! Thanks for visiting earlier,
ReplyDeleteBernice
love that you have so much open space in your room! I moved to this bigger room so I could have more space but like your husband stated...you expand to fill what you have. I am going to start my purge soon and see what I can sell and if it doesn't sell I will give it to some center that can use it. Have a great week and thanks for stopping by my blog earlier! Vickie #58
ReplyDeleteNice floor colour and loving the tidy space, though the others are right I do believe we tend to expand our crafting to fill the available space!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my desk already

Craft storage is like a handbag, stuff expands to fit the space! Loving the colour of that floor - I think it's worth the effort you are making!
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting earlier in the week x
