Having had a lovely day at the NEC on Sunday with my friend Julie, I came home determined to tame the space I call my craft room.
I had let things slip as we all do ... and had ended up crafting on a tiny space on my desk. So today was the day I set myself a challenge, not only to tidy everything up but to ruthlessly go through every box and clear out all the things that I know I will never use.
Well 11 hours and 3 big black bin bags later .... here are some piccies of the results. (I have thrown in a before picture so you can see how naughty I had been!)
Having sorted it all I think I have to admit to having a serious paper addiction - please if you see me in a craft shop aiming for the paper towers - please just tell me to "Step away from the paper!" - and if you are a shop owner who is running short of paper, drop me a line I can probably help you out!
