Picture says it ALL!!!


This has been me all week it seems. Well, some of my not finishing my rooms is due to illness, but I admit...I want to craft more than clean up and move the room out. I have made some progress. Trying to find a few nooks and crannies in the new area to be able to put the large Ikea floor and wall shelving. I'll get it done....just keep me in prayer for energy, no pain in joints and muscle, and to keep my stomach settled the rest of the week. Pics to come soon.  In the mean time, Enjoy your week and remember to spend time with family to make some daily memories that you can journal about in your scrapbooks. 
Hugs and stay well to all.  Happily Scrapbooking & Crafting My Memories~~Sandra V.

CONGRATS!!


We reached 100 and I am so thankful to those of you who have stayed with me through the last year and a half or so and to my newest followers too. This has been an awesome outlet for my crafty side and just meeting new people who love crafting from all over the world is fantastic. 
Seems most of us have the same dream of more Organization and time in our crafty spaces/rooms.

Hopefully I can start sharing some of my changes in a week or so. It's been a rough few weeks/month trying to make the change from a craft room to one wall, but I am getting there. I have stored some items for later giveaways and I have made a donation box that will go to a community organization at our next Girls Day Out Crop/Craft Day

Going through everything in my craft room has made me realize I have had many items just sitting here way to long (the word..hoarder.. has come into my brain) and decided I'll never use them.
So, It's time to let go and give to those who are in more need and will be put to good use. Our GDO team has been looking into various organizations that could use crafty tools and supplies. On the list are...
Project Runaway/Youth Villages, Alzheimer Facility, Boys/Girls Club. We are doing our research on each. All of these are great choices and I hope to see many of our Crafters donate to this in April.
Got to run, have my Grandson and he's keeping me busy this evening. Love this little guy.

In the mean time, I am packing up some more of my craft room and looks like it will be a few more weeks before I'll have access to crafting. But, I have a better plan for the wall space now and we are working to reach that organized goal... Is there any organization plans that lasts more than a day in a scraproom/wall space?  LOL!!!
Thanks for being patient. 

Tweaking My Spring Door Ornament and hope to share that project in a few days.

Hopefully I'll get more stuff to giveaway as I go through the 
many stashes of items I have and can do an 
international giveaway in the future.
I am hoping to be able to do and share more on my blog this year once I get everything moved (about 6 days behind my schedule..errr!).  Do be patient, I am taking pics to show my full room deconstruction to a shared space set up. It really is not easy down sizing. Pray I can complete this undertaking in the next few weeks. I have had to slow down this week due to the LUPUS..eeek! But, I am pressing on and when I am ready for furniture to be moved, I hope those who volunteered will still be available. Thank you in advance.....Very heavy furniture to move....so this is not something I can do by myself. (It's a pain getting older...LOL!!)
Thank you for stopping by and browsing through my blog. Hope you enjoy what you see and if there is anything you have questions about...just leave me a comment below and I'll see If I can be of any assistance. Check out my website too.  www.ohmyscraps.ctmh.com
