Stark Studio

Spring Cleaning is in the Air

I just watched an episode of Mission Organization that many of us can relate to entitled Stark Studio Gets Stylish
Thankfully my studio isn't as messy ;) but I do lack organization and style.
The segment offered great tips for storing patterns in magazine holders, fabric in labeled boxes, rolling bins to store items used daily, that fit neatly under the long wall length sewing table!

Episode ~ Before

Episode ~ After

Everyone brace yourselves
I am going to show my disaster of a studio and the little bit of progress I have made in re-organization
Remember I moved a year and half ago and just dumped everything in here
Before

Progress
It's hard to see but Blank Tees and Fabric are now stored in rolling bins
I just need more

And the Stack above has even made more progress since that photo was taken
I only have 2 of those bins left to empty
and my new cabinets are now on that wall
My Studio is definitely a work in progress but it has come a long way

Week In Review

This has been a week of Change, Deliveries, Organization, Style and Rest for some

Miss Bella goes Back to school! No it wasn't Spring Break.
She was a Pre-School Drop Out
Yes, that's right after a month of crying I decided she wasn't ready. That was back in September. We have talked about school everyday since and even waive to it when we drive by.

I don't know if she is ready or just tired of being stuck home with me, lol

Bella and I went back to school on Monday!
Our goal is Monday, Wednesday, Friday for only a half day...she refuses to take a nap at school.
No problem, I even told her I would go with her for the first few days IF she needed me to.
I went with her on Monday and on Wednesday she said "What are you doing here?"
(Funny, I was thinking the same thing)
I went home and picked up my Big Girl in a few hours and here is how the rest of our week went...

HOME at last

Blu really enjoyed his time without Bella

He even made a New Friend
The Pretty Stuffed Kitty had to be taken away...he got a little too excited
