Woyww - time for the next chapter

After years of hardly any blogging, you've got two posts in one day!!

Well it's been a while since I took part in woyww. This little room has been the home of my Stampin' Up! Business and crafty escape for the last 2 years, but the time has come for me to sort out and pack up as the not so little Isaac has pretty much outgrown his moses basket so I'm being evicted from the little bedroom into the dining room.

Here's my current room and desk before the sorting and decluttering exercise begins. Check pack later in the week for progress and I will have to sell of some crafty stash too, so there will be some bargains for all of you lovely peeps here in blog land.

  

 

Here's to the next chapter and hopefully a new house/extension so I can have my child free zone back :-D

Don't forget to scroll down for my competition post!

Reorganisation in progress!

Hello!!!

I made the decision yesterday to have a bit of a sort and to reorganise all of my craft stuff, no mean feet, but as it's WOYWW I thought I'd show you how things looked this morning...Can you guess where the cat lives?

 

 

The inside of the wardrobe that I'm fitting shelves to so that I can store more of my stash

And well this is what my lounge floor looks like today...really should invest in that TV...Like how I prioritised crafting over putting Ben's toys away...

 

Fingers crossed project reorganisation will be complete tomorrow and I can show you the new and improved craft zone.

Why do I spend more time crafting than cleaning?

Because crafting is fun! I hate cleaning and to be fair its not hard for me to do more crafting than cleaning, but with Jeannie poping in tomorrow, I really should leave blogland alone and tidy up a bit!

So without further a-due today's card is...

I'm so in love with Warren from CWC. I really wanted to buy the stamps, but my spending has been so high with my Stampin' Up! business costs that I really couldn't justify it! I'll just make do with the printed versions that are ready for me to colour.

I've used some of the gorgeous CWC cottontail papers and coloured with my copics. The sentiment is by High Hopes.

As it's Wednesday and I'm talking about my disaster zone, do you want to have a peak as part of WOYWW??? Ok here goes.... eeek!

Creme eggs - nom, thanks mum!


Well you'll probably remember from my previous post that my stuff has a tendancy to migrate out of my craft room. The net result is it then migrates off the living room floor and is dumped on the dining table away from little hands. Oh well, lets see how much I can clear up in the morning as I'm totally pooped! (I work with too many Americans!)

I'm waffling a bit today, so hopefully you've not completely lost the will to live!

I just wanted to let you all know that I've just announced the date of my first workshop and the theme is Men's Cards!!! oh yes!!! I'm already nervous, but it should be a fabby day and I hope some of you can make it. If you'd like to come, just pop on over to my Stampin' Up! blog for all the details (www.thestickyelf.co.uk).

WOYWW

Hello!!!!

I know I've been gone a little while, but I've just become a Stampin' Up! demonstrator, so I've been focusing my energy on getting some samples made up and sorting out a separate blog to manage my new buiness. It's turning into a bit of a headache, so if anyone out there is familar with wordpress, please drop me a line and I'll be forever grateful to you.

It dawned on me a little while a go that it's actually Wednesday and I should take part in WOYWW. Its not something I've done before, but I have to say I love seeing everyone's crafty habbits.

I'm someone that likes to craft in front of the TV (stops me munching). There's no TV in my craft space which means my stash slowly migrates down the stairs making the whole house a mess until it gets too much or Ben starts to play with my stuff (he ruined a finished card last week - noooooo!!!)

As I have so much stuff, I find myself migrating from my little craft table onto the floor (I have a bad back, so I probably should invest in a TV to go upstairs) so here we have what I'm currently working on, on the floor.

And as you've never seen my crafty space, here's what it looks like. My desk is relatively tidy, the rest of the room is a complete mess. I decided to have a bit of a sort out last weekend and ebay some stuff to help fund someone to help me with designing my new blog. Storage always seems to be a problem, so I've started keeping things on the windowsill too. My cat is not too happy about that as he can't sit on it anymore. 

Right, better get back to that birthday card that seems to be troubling me at the moment.

See you soon.
