A new start to a new year!

After much frustration about my currant state of disorder , I finally decided to tackle a huge job and organize my craft room. Actually I moved craft rooms so really I am putting order to two areas at the same time. My crafting studio was outside in a separate little building that I love but it was very cold and disconnected from the family. I decided to move inside and try to clear out and consolidate all at the same time. Wow what a job!! We had a huge sale which helped immensely and I have thrown a fair amount of clutter out. All this to say that is where Ive been for the last four weeks, buried in my own mess. But what a great feeling to put some order to my life and have a cozy studio to start creating in. The goal....a place for each item and and complete order

Wrapping up 2010

To late to wish all a Merry Christmas , but how about a happy New Year! We had a lovely Christmas with both family celebrations and friend celebrations. What a sad thought to take down the trees, put away the decorations and go back to regular music on the radio. I love Christmas and longingly look forward to next year. A few looks back..

Still more to be thankful for

Its past Thanksgiving but we have much to be thankful for this week. My children, Myself ,and our young friend survived a car wreck that could have easily taken our lives. We were hit by a driver that went through a stop sign at 55 and sent us into a spin that took out a light pole, lg tree and left us in a tree orchard. Jaws of life were used to get us out. We are very sore but back to crafting and setting up the new business. Seems there are always surprises that keep us knowing what is truly important in this life.
The new store is up and running and filled with gift items and holiday decor for the home. Please stop by and check it out when you are in the Eugene area. Store is locatewd in the Barn at Glory- days Antiques in Springfield.

With Thankful Hearts

While cleaning up the house from piles of fabric and sewing scraps, I reflect on the things I am Thankful for; A healthy body, wonderful children, a caring husband, faithful friends, a warm house and a God who has blessed us fully and continues to restore. This has been a tough year in many ways and with out going into details, I have much to be thankful for this Thanksgiving.
