OK, I admit it.....It's time to clean....& an announcement!

When you have a 12 foot long workbench, and you're down to only 2 feet of workspace, admittedly it's time to clean up. As I was working on some jewelry for the ICE Resin®  Design Team I realized the pile was encroaching on my workspace. It's time to clean!
I've been having a lot of fun with ICE Resin® lately, there are so many ways to use it and so many fun things to make. There are a lot of new products coming out very soon and you won't want to miss them. To find out more you can visit www.iceresin.com

I also want to announce that I am starting a bi-monthly linky party for ICE Resin® projects.
On the 2nd & 4th Fridays of each month I will be hosting "Friday ICE" a linky party where you can link up your favorite ICE Resin® projects right here on this blog.
The folks at ICE Resin® have graciously offered to do a giveaway once a month as well, it could be an ICE Resin® plunger or a cool bezel, we'll just have to wait and see.

So I hope you will join us starting February 8th, I can't wait to see what you make!
More details to follow...

The CRAFTERMATH...Cue scary Music!

Yesterday I showed you some of the things I got done in the studio and have been showing you my pretties and decor.  After rearranging, getting lots of artwork done, and shooting a TV application video, everything is out in the open. It's the Craftermath!

Ahhhh! Nooooooooo....

Just to proove that my workspace gets just as messy as everyone else's.  I guess at this point it's time to stop and take a breath, regroup, and clean.

I think we can safely say that my new studio has been thoroughly broken in.

But at least we know the other side of the room is all organized and pretty, lol.

Hugs!

Phewww! I'm beat...

 If you remember in my last post, I told you that I was rearranging things so that I could hang a door on my wall. Well here it is...

 I had one old door and parts of another one. I took one of the sides of the parts door and cut the edge off then screwed it to the top of the full door to make a small shelf, then hung it sideways on my studio wall.

Don't you just love the old hardware keyhole on this door! LOVE IT!

No the door isn't going to be bare for long, wait for it....

I got to hang my mirror, finally! I have admired the wire work that I've seen on the Sassy Trash Blog and have wanted to make a wire setting to hold my mirror and finally got it done today. Though mine isn't as cool as her work, I like it lots.

After that I got a couple of finials put on the corners of my desk -see how cute they are! I got my artwork hung and decided that my upper shelf would hold my published artwork and corresponding magazines. (only to realize I can't find half of them...)

Then....

I got to make some of the sewing pattern tissue pom poms I've wanted to make for forEVER! Even made a couple of wire hangers shaped like flowers to attach them to the ceiling. LOVE!

And after THAT, I got some artwork hung on the walls. YEAH!

 Oh and since we're in the sewing area I wanted to show you what I got for Christmas, my first ever brand spanking NEW sewing machine, before this my newest one was 20 years old, lol. and my other two are 30 and 40 years old. And they all work great but they are loud.

I also recieved this sewing machine cover and pad from my mother in law. She makes the cutest stuff! LOVE IT!

So that's about it. Got lots done and I'm really happy with the result. (Yes I do realize that half that door space is empty, but I haven't figured out yet what I'm doing with that space so I'm leaving it blank) :)

So the wind is blowing like crazy and it's cold outside right now. Perhaps it'll snow a little tiny bit? We'll have to wait and see. So wierd. Last year we got 4 foot of snow this year not so much as a flurry.  Anyway, stay warm folks and thanks for dropping by to see me. Hugs! (cause, yeah, I'm a hugger)
