Neat As A Pin!!!!

Since when are pins neat?!!!!


Most of the time, I assure you, mine are not neat....

Oops!
But apparently, "[i]n the early 19th. Century, the development of mass production guaranteed a uniformly high quality and finish of consumer products. Formerly hand-made and thus frequently irregular, now, pins were consistently well made and finished."

Who Knew!!!????

Did they say mess production????

another creative mess!


I decided today my sewing room was in need of a little attention...

Peeking inside to my clean room!

I needed to put more than just the pins away!!!


I did a little bit of cleaning and redecorating

And several hours later (lots of cleaning, moving furniture around)...

I did a little bit of cleaning and redecorating

this is about as neat as it is gonna get....

At home with my sewing utensils!

  1. love it! sometimes ya just gotta clean it up to find stuff- but then a week later you forget where you put it and make a mess trying to find it again! Remember creative minds are messy minds!
    It looks fabulous! Congrats on a great clean up job!
    happy sewing!

  2. I thought your sewing room was fine even before you cleaned it (guess you know what mine looks like sometimes then...LOL) I do like mine when it's cleaned up but it doesn't stay that way for long at all.

  3. What a wonderful room. I love all the natural light you have. I need to do some cleaning and straightening too.

  4. Look at that room! It's gorgeous! Someday I hope I have a whole room for crafty stuff! It's good to know someone else's space is a mess too...my little corner of our apartment is pretty much the same!

  6. I love the room!! What a wonderful space in which to create. I also love the color of the background on your 2-page spread. Is it watercolor, or pastels?
