I may have only been blogging once a week, but believe me my feet haven’t touched the ground since I decided to stand back for a while ….. As it happens it was a very wise decision, as my life seems to have been taking on a lot of new changes and happenings, which are set to continue for the next six months or so at least, the most exciting of which will be the safe arrival of my first grandchild “Jellybean” in June …….
….. which is why my spare bedroom has gone from this to this ….. and my old Craft Room is no more!
It was a job I firmly intended to do during the summer holidays, but then in a mad mood of impetuosity I decided to get it started over Easter while I was in Iceland, aghhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have a brilliant gentleman called Ade who sorted it all for me (he, who did my “boutique” bathroom too). I just give him a whole raft of wishy washy, fiddle farty ideas and somehow he knows exactly what I want!!! So when I came home, all I had to do was fill all the shelves and drawers with all the stuff from my old and nearly double the size craft room ……
…… and I did it !!! Well, almost, I still have my sewing machines, Christmas bits and pieces and picture frames in the old room, but it’s all hidden away (but easily reachable when needed) but now my guests (including Tom, The Lovely Laura and Jellybean) will have a lovely spacious room to spread out in plus tea making facilities.
I am anxiously awaiting tomorrow when I can see what you've been up to. Congrats on the new grandbaby. You will be a spectacular granny!
ReplyDeleteHi Helen. You (and Ade) have been busy haven't you! Love the new craft room. My hubby has threatened to redo our bedroom to include a tiny craft space for me! I use our bed, dressing table and floor at the moment so that would be wonderful:) I will be studying your pics closely to get some ideas :) Take care.
