hello stranger


I've been a little quiet lately as a corner of The Craftroom
was soaked in the recent rains .
It was a great opportunity to have a big cleanup.
Lots of stuff was ruined and has been thrown out .

My studio was originally built for
teaching decorative painting
and before classes my machine and sewing supplies
had to be stashed away .

Now the Craftroom is just for me I'm finally
setting it up just the way I want it .
As I am running Clare's Craftroom from here
I want it to be functional but comfortable .
There is still lots to do sorting out as
well as running my business but
I'm getting there .
I can't wait to show you when it's finished .
Just thought I'd let you know in case you
thought I'd become blogless !

    I love the giant buttons,

    Good luck with the organization, I think it can be hard work...but fun at the same time :)

    Life sure is pretty fun and exciting for your right now Clare. There's nothing like organising and setting up a studio to get the creative juices flowing. I can't wait to see your creative space.

    So, so pleased to hear you’re not blogless (if a little damp). Meanwhile, am entirely in awe of your organisation and storage - just the fact that you don't have to 'unpile' containers to get to the bottom one. Sigh...

    We can say one thing here "Rain rain go away, come again another day". Might this give you relief from this shower. But I must say you got some pretty good container to store your craft work.
