I have decided either they went through a 2 week clean up mission or I am a complete and utter slob!
This is my desk after a 5 necklace bender.
Don't get me wrong I clean my space between bouts of crazy crafting, but while I am creating I don't or can't stop what I'm doing to make it 'company is coming' presentable. If I stop to put away every little bead drawer and dust off.....I completely lose momentum. At that point I might as well just go attack the laundry monster hiding in the chute. He bites, so I avoid him at all costs!
I'm afraid to show you the sewing half of the room after the 3 bears I finished yesterday. Suffice to say the cats have plenty of tidbits and scraps to play with until I get back in there this afternoon.
I personally would like to see some 'truth in advertising', but I'm nosy that way :)
I have to go to work at the day job today. I would much rather be in the craft room, as I still have 2 orders to finish up. Sounds like much more fun than paperwork right now.
So I leave you with what I would rather be right now :) Bright and creative blessings friends! Theresa
Your photo of your work space looks alot like mine..hehe...I do manage to get it cleaned before I leave the shop for the day..Well I have to or Bitzy will try to take goodies off the table..We all know she thinks everything on earth is a Toy for her to play with...
ReplyDeleteHave a good day at your Day Job, play nice with the other children...
Ha!!! I've often wondered the same thing when I see the pics of a beautiful, immaculate and SO organized workspace. I've actually started avoiding looking at them - something very masochistic about it LOL. I would much rather see a pic like you have shown of your space ....I can so relate to that!

I don't think that looks so bad! The only reason my work space looks good is that I don't have one! I use my dinner table and if we want to eat, I have to clean up. Sorta forces neatness :)
ReplyDeleteIt doesn't look messy, it looks like you are working, besides it is always good to have stuff around you that inspires or you just love!
ReplyDeleteLaundry monster tooo funny

I totally understand what you mean, almost every workroom I see pictures of, are so neat and tidied, I'm always envious of their tidiness! I try to keep my workspace as tidy as possible but it's difficult because I need so much while working and don't like cleaning up every night when I'm not yet finished with the design ;) I do however always try to clean up and put everything in their original places when I finished a designs (and then to start all over again!)
ReplyDeleteMy space looks worse than yours and I rarely clean up! I find that if I do, then I know where nothing is at and I get upset! I think any artists area is always a mess, this is how we create something beautiful out of chaos!
ReplyDeletemy space is like your space. My husband goes mental if he goes in there, so I tell him "it's my space, you don't like - stay out :-)"
ReplyDeleteI too feel inadequate when I see those perfect spaces but like you when creating it all comes out, only goes away again when I have finished a project!
