Here it is after daughter moved out..really small,and has 3 doors,one from kitchen one goes to garage and one to utility room.I try to keep it neat,Im kind of picky,but not because Im prissy, just because of my health, I know if I let things get behind,I might not catch up.

    Yipee! Ain't it nice to have a place to spread out your projects, and not have to put them away when it's time to set the table for dinner?

    Caroline,
    Really like seeing your work around your room-on the doors and on your chair. It is way neat! You'd say "ugg" if you saw mine but I do have lots of things I made hanging around. Your room inspires me to try to be neater.
    Does your bird sing?

    Enjoy your space!

    It looks very pretty - and very organized! What a pleasure it must be to have your own space to play in! (I think no matter how large a space we have to work in, the work expands to fill the space.)

    Caroline, I really like your sewing room. You've inspired me to work on my room. I know I would enjoy it a lot more if I organized it and made it prettier. Kay

    Caroline,
    your room is wonderful.

    I'm in the process of giving myself a little more room.
    I'm sharing my new space with our computer, and Stephanie's area for her art.

    Right now, it's just a jumble of stuff.
    Hopefully real soon, mine will look almost as nice and neat as yours.

    I'm with Nina, your wall hanging and pictures are great!

    I hope you enjoy it!!

    REne,, It isnt that hard to stop clutter,once you get organized. As I said, I got in the HABIT for health reasons,if I let something go it becomes an overwhelming task to clean it up. Find a place for everything.I have little drawers, baskets,shelves etc. and i have a place for all my items. I return them to their place after I use them. I clean up after each session,without fail,its so much nicer to go back to a clean area.You can do it. Believe me, I was not always so neat,but once I got into the habit its just easy. Good Luck!!!

    Congratulations Caroline!! It looks great! Always nice to have your own space and not have to be moving projects all the time. I understand about the organization...I think many of us can relate. Enjoy your lovely new space!
