Crumbs

By nature I am a spreader. Although I love things organized and labelled and binned I tend to spread things out when I am working on a project.

This means everything from paint swatches to fabric to sandpaper is all over the place!

I like to look things over so to speak.

So while the hubby is working on the laundry room cabinetry I decided to organize the sewing room.

Goodbye rubbermaid bins, hello shelves and drawers!!

The overflowing containers are in the corner and under the table. I should be embarassed, or not even share these pics, but here we go...

The old dresser is painted  and new hardware installed. Now I just have to fill  it with fabric!

The table is tidied up and ready to start new projects-cushions, aprons, and a baby quilt for a new grandchild! (yeah)

I can actually see the ironing board now, all fabric etc will have a home, and the paint swatches will have their own drawer too.

I am hoping to add a paper section in the laundry room, to keep all the gift wrap, glue gun, tape etc that I seem to store in 3 different places around the house.

Meanwhile, I have been framing some awesome watercolours that my talented sil did for a breast cancer fundraiser. These are beautiful pics that I would like to add to the laundry room.

She has done a large assortment of art cards that are suitable for framing. I picked out 6, but I may have to add some more! The colours are varied as are the subject matter and they are all lovely.

 I chose mostly garden-beachy-birdie type pics in aquas and taupes.

More imortantly is that she is donating all the proceeds to breast cancer.

This is my week so far, I just might get this spring cleaning and organizing done after all!!

Please excuse the not-so-great-photography!! But you get the picture!!
