What a Mess!


It seems my studio is a total mess.


And I have no one to blame but myself.


No matter how neat and tidy I keep the rest of my apartment, I cannot seem to keep my studio in any state but chaotic.


I make myself crazy.


Today is the day I will clean it! 


I'm posting these photos on my blog so I'm obligated to do it.


I will be back later today or tomorrow with after shots.


Hopefully we will all be impressed.


But first, I'm going to go make some jewelry.  It's just SO much more fun!

Frankly, Kathy, I'm impressed with your creative chaos. I always work best when all my supplies are out and visible, just like you're showing. Lol. You have some wonderful supply storage. Love that multi drawer unit. Coming from a messy or spotless studio, your work is always a treat!

Well that was refreshing. Nice to see someone else's mess. But if you put it all away, how will you find what you're looking for? I make more of a mess searching for that one elusive item than I started with.

I'm glad to see someone else works the way I do. I clean it up and then I mess it up. Never ending~
If you figure out how to avoid this, please let me know.

I DO have a sewing machine! Actually, my Mom thought she needed a new sewing machine a couple of years ago. Then she got her old sewing machine working again. So, instead of taking the new sewing machine back, she decided it would be my Christmas gift that year. A couple months ago I picked it up from her house and used it in my journals I worked/work on for my class. Otherwise, I avoid sewing as much as possible!
