After laughing in the general direction of THIS madness for some time, I finally rolled up my sleeves and got busy making some progress in here. About an hour later the room looks like this:
It's progress :) The bookshelf is a new addition (previously in another room.) I'm off to work some more! I'm struck with a cleaning streak and must take myself up on the offer ;P
Carissa,
ReplyDeletei am SOOOOO loving your book shelf
which looks like a little boat...is it???

one hour?!?!

thank you for giving us a little peak into your "madness"!!
xxoo
happy cleaning sweets!
smooch,

Thanks Kolleen :P It looks like a little boat, but it's not a real boat. I think it's supposed to either hang on the wall or at one point came with a stand. I found it at the thrift store and couldn't resist :)
ReplyDeleteIt was all just a bunch of shifting around of things. You should see the pile-o-mess that's still there! lol
Thanks for the smooches and encouragement :)
Well it looks like you are accomplishing your madness, Every girl has this! I love your new shelf.Have fun,maybe you'll find a buried treasure.
ReplyDeleteYea! I love your re-organized-not-as-messy-mess! I've been working on a similar process in my art studio. I can't believe some of the stuff I found in there! Real treasures, to be sure. Party on, Wayne!
ReplyDeleteoooh, this is a good reminder

I love this, it looks inviting, creative, warm, and unique! I wonder what butterflies mean to you...I love butterflies and feel a strong presence of a passed grandmother when one comes to visit me. Love and light - Amy Lee
ReplyDeleteBuffy, Ahoy!
ReplyDeleteLezli, Party on Garth!;D
Amy Lee,
Thank you for sharing your story. I know how important grandmothers are! As a child I was always drawn to butterflies. As an adult I love them still, especially their symbolism :)
Rachel,
How delicious! I will linger in the anticipation and think of you as I smell the breeze here!
Kim,
I love your blog too! Your stories are incredible. Thank you :D

Love that your mannequin wears a lampshade!
