Crafty mess update

This is my craft room as of 10-29-2012

Seems to just always increase in storage needs :) I have a space that I appreciate and never want taken from me but OH what I could do with straight walls! I would have at least 3 feet extra without those barn walls.  This is not really a room, just a space above my stairs leading to our 1 and only bedroom! I gotta totally hand it to my husband for getting those desks up our stairs.  I really love the desks and my workspace (considering this is a before picture!) it shows me and my father (not impressed with the room) and thinking on how to fix that!

 These two photos show my in progress storage containers. Each box is a mini album I am working on and oh boy its too many LOL.  Sorry, I should have put some effort into cleaning up, but sheesh

Whoo-ligans Mini album

I so badly miss challenges and all that super fun stuff. Since I started to make mini albums I have not done a card, layout of any size or even been able to pull out my personal supplies. BUT I have started a goal. After the next 25 minis are done I will return to my blogging for fun and for full time.  I just wish making minis was a chore and not my favorite thing to craft right now so that I could get a few scrap pages done. 
 
Sigh, "tough woes"
