My Pride and Joy

For my birthday and Christmas last year Brian asked me what I wanted and something I could use. I put a lot of thought into this and came up with the answer of a makeover for my craft room. It is a small room in our house that was the 'mud' room. We first cleared out the whole room and got to work on painting. I wanted something crisp and clean and fresh and bright!! I went with plain white walls and black trim. Then I just added pops of pink in the room.

This is the view into my Lovely room! The storage in this room is amazing and thanks to Brian I have lots of storage bins.

I really like the paper scrap storage and it comes in handy having them sorted by color.

My sewing machine and Cricut!

Locker type storage that I keep my bigger stuff in and the top is for wrapping paper and gift wrap for special gifts.


I LOVE LOVE LOVE this room. I can spend hours and hours in it making cards, scrapbook pages, and any other crafts that I can come up with.

I am still here

I am so sorry that I have not kept up with my blog. I am in a better place now with work, my home, and my life in general.

  What has happened since I have been gone?

...Well Brian and I are still trying for that little one we have had 2 m/c since I last logged on (for a total of 4 now) and that is part of the reason I was gone. I just didn't feel like doing anything but I am now getting on with my life and I have realized that things happen for a reason we may not know that reason at the time but we will see it in the end.

...I have a new niece and nephew and they are almost a year old! We love spending time with them and my nephew who is going to be 4! Wow it does not seem like he should be that old.

...We have done some upgrading to our home in the past year. We did some major painting and we got new furniture and I made myself a craft room!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am most excited about this. It is pink and pretty and I love it.  I will post pictures in my next couple of post.

I am making a promise to all of you here and now that I will not let this blog go. I am going to try and post atleast 2 times a week.
