Before and After

Hello!  I told you I would be back today with a post on my craft space.  Well it is much smaller than it was before I moved.  Before when we lived in Iowa I had half the basement.  Well, in Alabama basements are almost unheard of.  So I have 1/4 of the space I use to have. 
Before:

I got these cubes at Target and Michaels.  I had enough room for 4 people to sit and create before along with 2 bookshelves and a wall mounted case my sweet hubby made for me.  Well, there is only room for 1 now.  I think I counted that I had 30 off these cubes all put together in a really cool layout.  I only have 8 of them here.  The rest are in storage along with the rest of my stuff.

Stuff everywhere!

I am so embarrassed.  hehe  But

I am sure there are a lot of you who's area looks very similar right now...am I correct?

After:

Notice the tail hanging out from my chair?  She loves to sit there and look out the window.  Then I sit there and have cat hair all over my bottom.   I love sitting in front of the window, I get a lot of natural light.   I even hung pretty light and airy curtains.  That is a vintage chair.  That was one of my first vintage purchases 10 years ago.  Y'all know how much I like Shabby/Vintage stuff!

All my glitter lined up by the colors of the rainbow.

My Mother In Law quilts and these are her beautiful creations.  I try and get some every time I go visit.  She is the most amazing quilter.  I am totally jealous. 

I have a scrap drawer but it is so full I had to have a scrap basket.  I also just pull up my chair to the sewing machine and it works perfectly.  Not my ideal space but this is what I have to work with for now.

And this is the sweet face to the tail in the picture above.  She lays on the floor when I am crafting.  She is such a sweetheart.  Her name is Callie and she is a very skinny Mane Coon.  She has always been that way.  I have always left her bowl out for her to eat whenever she likes.  I guess she has a fast metabolism

Thanks so much for stopping by
