Dirty Little Secrets
I'm about to share an embarrassing secret with you.
Perhaps you have this secret as well.
My studio regularly turns into a disaster area.
I like to blame a mischievous cat who knocks things around
as well as a creative daughter who manages to avoid me when I ask her to put things away but to be honest - it is mostly my fault.
I have been sewing and painting like crazy since before Christmas and have straighten up once in a while but it just wasn't enough. Last week I had finally had enough!

I mean, just look at this disaster:
A- Started to put up cork board squares and didn't finish
B - Mischievous Cat making himself at home among the mess
C - Daughters missing water bottle - oops I guess I stole it
D - Boxes of stuff from classes I taught last Oct. that need to be put away
E - Bags and Bags of projects needing attention
Keiko is scared to enter the room because it is so messy.
What a disaster!
I just couldn't hide from the mess anymore.
Something had to be done!!!
So this week, I spent an entire day rearranging the furniture
and putting up new shelves.
Then two days getting everything into it's place.

And I couldn't have finished without the help of my friend, Sylvia, who kept virtually
harassing encouraging me, and my creative daughter who ran things here and there whenever asked.
My daughter was motivated by the desk I gave her for all of her art supplies.
I like the new arrangement and I really like the cleanliness.
*deep sigh*
It's so beautiful when it's clean.
Another secret: Next week it won't be this clean.
