Good morning my dear bloggy friends!
Sorry I haven't posted last week - I was away visiting my mom - she had a new shower put in her bathroom and once you let workmen in your house you know what happens - the whole house was dusty so we did a big clean up from top to bottom - also cleaned the windows and my brother mowed the lawn and tidyed up the garden. It was nice weather so we had a BBQ one day and in general had a good time! When I came back home I started on a big clean up of my craftroom! It was a lot of work because there has been a mess there for a while and the problem was I just couldn't find things so I decided to make a big change get my act together and really tidy up....here are the results....at the end of the post there will be a little video which I shot this morning so don't have a scare when you see me - it was 6am and I just got out of bed - so no glamourous me ha, ha.....plus this is my first ever video with my little camera that isn't really a proper video camera.....
First some still photos......
Well I have put all my washi tape, special ribbons and most of my jewelry making stuff in tin boxes, you can see my Crafty individual stamps peeking out of a box...the other 2 boxes are also full of stamps - I can't really write down all the different makes but in the black box there are just Hero arts stamps....
In the white box on top I have Paperartsy and Dylusion stamps - the black box holds La Blanche stamps and in that yellowish box I have Papermania, Stampattack, Artistic outpost and a few other companies....
Although this bit doesn't look like it is organized it is - I have sorted all my pencils, brushes, stencils - even when I had order it was never as good as it is now ( I better not mention how many things I have found that I thought I have lost! :-) )
Here are my TH dies, Sizzix and Spellbinder dies all organized and easy to reach - on top some glues and various mediums for painting....
And the other side - I finally organized my papers - they are organized by color and use ( stamping papers and crackly and stuff like that) I have also got up to organizing some of my stamps into files - I will show how I did it next time....
And last but not least a short video of my newly organized room - it is not at all anything professional and as I said an early in the morning spur of the moment thing but it is my first go at something like that so have a laugh ....
That is all I have to show for today - I will be visiting you all soon!
Lots of love and hugs to all of you
CARDARIAN
PS: I am very sorry but my video did not want to upload for reasons that are not clear to me - I am blaming mr. Blogger! Hopefully next time I will be able to show you a video of my craft room!

Wow looks like you have been busy! It's always good to have a good sort out now and again. I do it a couple times of year just so my room doesn't get too organised!!! Take care Zo xx 65
ReplyDeleteI would blame Blogger too. Have NO IDEA how to help though! Love your new organised self..understand that you've 'found' stuff, I do it a lot. It does look very organised. And pink.
ReplyDeleteYou need to come and sort my room out maybe.... but I am not doing any throwing away...! Can't help with your video either, sorry. Helen, 5

Good luck with uploading the video. I struggled a few times before I managed it....can only upload mine on the lap top for some reason if that helps. Your crafty space looks really fab now. Well done.

Love when you find things you think you have lost or have completely forgotten that you even had.. Your room is lovely and organised and I am sure will give you lots of crafty fun..
ReplyDeleteSandy :)

ReplyDeleteshyame about the video. I've had that problem with blogger too. Its such a shame after you have taken the time to take the video

Awww. Shame about the video. Did you upload it to YouTube then try to embed it? Although I am pretty sure even Wordpress makes you pay for the video upgrade to be able to LOAD a video directly, but lets you EMBED one from Youtube easily, and free! I'v heard that Blogger limits pretty severely the space you can use for free, so I wonder if size wise it was too big? Of course I don't know blogger :) so I may be talking out my hat, IYKWIM.
ReplyDeleteGood luck getting it sorted!
Happy WOYWW!

You have been very busy, it is so much better creating in a space that is organised, be proud it look wonderful. Shame about the video maybe next time.

It is always good to have a sort out if only to find the stuff you've "lost" over the years. I really need to put some labels on stuff in my craft room i spend far to long looking for stuff rather than crsfting! You've done a great job! MMx '72

ReplyDeleteKrisha #20
I love sorting almost as much as stamping!!Thanks for sharing and have a great week!! Ginny#120
ReplyDeleteMr. Blogger is a real pain in the butt this week. I hate when it takes forever to load a page, you type a response comment and then it decided to delete it all! I think it has to do with this reader update due to come up next month! Hope you have a great week and thanks for sharing! Vickie #36
ReplyDeleteNow that looks like a great tidy up of the craft room. I tend to find things I had forgotten all about. Great thing to do if you can spare the time. When in doubt blame Blogger is my current motto.
ReplyDeleteSandra.
Happy Very Belated WOYWW. Wow - an amazing tidy up. Looks so organised and pretty now. I hope you can get your video uploaded - excited to see that. Ali x #25
ReplyDeleteLovely and tidy, well sorted out Dolores. Hope your visitors have arrived.
