New Studio Progress

There have been so many discussions on Etsy about studio space and keeping everything in order. I truley wish I could hire Mel from HautTotes to come help me:) Im posting some pics of the new studio as it is right now:) It needs hours and hours of work yet, but its going to be great when it is done, there are 2 rooms and I can close them off to keep them seperate. Please if you have ANY IDEAS share them....Any at all, Im at a loss for storage with a sloped ceiling.

My first "blog"

So after today I will no longer be a blog virgin....lol. What a day to start. I just came home from a week long vacation in Port Angeles, Washington where I surprised my dad for his 72nd birthday, FYI..dont do it to yours...we thought he was going to have a heart attack. See it went something like this, my mother and I kept it a secret and my brother Brett was in on it too, he picked me up at the airport, we met my parents for dinner at "The Bushwhacker" resturant in town. Mom and dad were already there when Brett and his children walked into the dining room as I waited in the lobby with the owner looking at me like I had 2 heads. I told him about the surprise (he has known my parents for years) he was a little more relaxed when he figured out why I was holding back. I walked into the dining room and my mom said "there she is!!" I thought my dad was gonna drop right there, he burst into tears, it was a joyous event but sad at the same time, I hadn't seen him in 4 years as they live on the other side of the country.

After a week of visiting my parents and siblings it is nice to be home as I missed my sweetie a lot, oh and the kids too..hehe
