They say a picture is worth a thousand words.
I’m glad for that, because I’m lacking in words when I look at this mess.
I have a few curse words. Those are always dancing on my tongue as I walk past this depressing sight.
The trouble is, we’ve been living in the renovation. There had to be a place to put stuff when there just wasn’t a place to put stuff. This room became the catch-all. And now, I want it back.
I wanted to share this because blogland is so often full of finished rooms. Of beautiful staging and bouquets of flowers.
My craft room has none of that. It has a few fake flowers crushed under that box over there. It’s got scattered toys on the ground and just enough room for my sighs and mutters. I can’t wait to share the after picture with you.
I can’t wait until there IS an after.
Tell me, do you have a space like this? A black hole of clutter and tilted boxes?
Encouraging words, people. I need them.

At least your space has finished walls My craft/workout shares space with the furnace! I have to turn the heat down just to workout. I run with a view of my stack of “finds,” my unfinished blog projects, bags of moss from The Dollar Store… inspiring ! xo, laura

We just finished our basement (not yet up on the blog, but soon!) so I know about having an exposed furnace.
It’s true… we do have finished walls. I think that I’m feeling a bit daunted by all of the… stuff. Craft stuff doesn’t naturally seem to find itself in drawers or boxes. It’s so jumbly and awkward (unless you’re a scrapbooker – for some reason, there are oodles of ways to store paper).
Have you posted your craft space online? I would LOVE to see it!

LOL almost everyone has an area like that, thats just life especially after moving, I am sure it will be beautiful soon
Tara
Oh Mel, you’re always so encouraging. Thank you for that.
Moving is hilarious and terrible at the same time. I think that the trouble is that I’m impatient. And I’m sick to DEATH of boxes.

If considering using some of these mods, be aware that sometimes they
will inadvertently disrupt other aspects of your game sometimes too.
Lucila Cejas Epple, who is a resident of Portland said you can spot them at several intersections and ‘you can see all sorts of reactions to
them,’ she said. These toys can be used by babies and older
kids too.
