Inspiration

Posted in Homemaking

Why is it that I need lovely surroundings to work!  I looked around my sewing 'studio' yesterday and thought, "I need to do something about this!" 

 

 I was home from church with a slowly disappearing headache and nausea.  I found myself pacing to avoid the nausea (odd symptoms but what do I know?) and it occured to me that if I'm walking around anyway, I could work on the room.  I started... and by the time I was done (with LOTS of resting from exhaustion, starting again only when the greenies got too bad) I had several cabinets removed and then by the end of the day, I had DECOR up there!

 

 

My next goal is to paint the drywall (huggy says he's going to change it out anyway... it isn't mudded or taped so I never painted it.  Since he isn't going to tape this stuff... I'm going to make it look GOOD!)

 

Then I'll start on more of the cupboards.  GET THAT STUFF OFF of them!  WAHOOTY.

 

Nothing too profound... but I've gotten a LOT done since I did this.  Amazing isn't it?

I love all the decor. It looks fantastic. And the framed patterns give it that elegant touch, with a touch of whimsey. It looks great. I'm a firm believer in organizing and decorating your "space", whether it's a work room or a family room. It just makes you feel all happy inside, doesn't it? I have all of my scrapbooking supplies together and it makes me so happy to know where it is at all times and that it's organized in it's "home"...just makes me feel so good! I hope that you enjoy your space

BTW, I just got caught up on last weeks comments and was very amused and delighted and excited all in one. I love what you were saying about submission and biblical authority and such. I totally agree and hope you continue sharing your thoughts with us! I simply love it!

Hi, Chautona! I don't know if you'll remember me or not. I'm Susan - I was "bygrace" on Titus 2 MomsBoard at the same time you were several years ago. I found your blog through Dell's blog, and I must say that I'm thrilled to have found you again! I love your writing, and today I loved seeing your sewing room. The framed patterns are such a cute idea!

I love the framed vintage pattern- I may do that down in my sewing room, even if it is just a temporary room...

About Me

Where I make people scratch their heads with my bizarre and slightly scary ability to write but not publish novels and childrens fantasy, sew boutique clothing but not clean up my mess, ineffectively homeschool 9 children and rattle off obscure songs faster than the speed of sound - all at the same time. With no kitchen cabinets... but finally an OVEN!!!. Ain't it the life?
