So... I DIDN'T scrap this weekend....

So all my planning for the weekend come to nothing when I decided to re-arrange and clean my sons bedroom!  Uptill now it looked like a 11 year olds room and since he is turning 17 this month, I thought it best I get moving on updating it a bit!

Needless to say he wasn't home the whole weekend, so I at least got to work in a bit of piece and quiet.  And now he has a room more or less befitting at 17 year old - computer and all!

Now all thats left is to tidy up my scrap space and finally get down to some serious scrapping!

I love you 2 more than you coul...

Finally I have a dedicated craft room!  It is so exciting as my 'stuff' has generally been strewn around the house most of the time.  Sewing tends to happen on the dining room table and then there is fabric everywhere you look!  My scrapbooking may have its own shelves and storage tubs - but I can never find anything and I am forever clearing up when all I want to do is leave a project out to work on at leisure (ok truth be told.... not too much clearing up is done - which leaves my lounge in a state!)   So I now have my very own dedicated space!   This is looking in from the front door.  Lots of built in cupboards - perfect for fabric storage.  My own desk still to go in and be set up.   I can easily seat 6 ladies for some serious scrapping time at this huge table!  That is once I have cleared away the sewing - this is what my dining room looked like - just carried the cutting mat through to the cottage and set it down on t...

Wow ..... it has been for forever since my last post!  It is amazing how life gets so busy and we don't get round to doing things we want to.... I think I have come to a bit of cross-roads in my life..... Hubby and I are looking at the next stage in our lives..... what, where, when..... looking to God for His guidance and gently nudging and looking forward to seeing Him reveal his plans.
