Well it's another BSA hiking weekend, which means Jenny and I have the place to ourselves after they leave later. I'm really hoping to start the process of digging out my to-be-sewing room. It's a great big room that I'm going to get until we need to make it a bedroom....and then I'll probably move into the nursery...but that's several years down the road so I'm going to kick back and enjoy it while I've got it!! I got some neat closet made cubicle shelves for sorting fabric and "other things", I've picked out a paint color and a rug, and I have all sorts of ideas...so now I just have to start with the nasty part of clearing it out. Worst case scenario; mice have gotten into my boxes of fabric and I'll have to wash everything, and kill mice (not to mention the possibly even worse: spiders) and clean everything EXTRA well...best case scenario is that I'll just have to kill a few spiders and vac. up old mouse "stuff" and just do a bunch of sorting and general cleaning. Either way I just have to keep reminding myself how nice it will all look when I'm done with it and what a blessing it will be to our family. - not just because I'll be able to sew more for us, but also because my sewing/crafting/projects/fabric will not be taking up space in every single other room of the house...ahem. That's the theory anyway!!!! :-)
I'm off to go take stock of the room and see just how dreadful it's gotten... I'll try to post some pictures in the next day or so!

How exciting!! I can't wait to have a sewing room someday. As for now, I too have a tendency to leave my projects... on the dining table! Lol! Its really the only table I can take over. I really hope you'll post pictures as you go along- and best of luck with the spiders. My great grandmother used to say a spider in the house was good luck... :)

Sounds like a neat project...minus the spiders and mouse "stuff"! What a blessing to have a sewing room...I'd love that some day. Right now I have a sewing corner...in the living room:-)
Looking forward to pics! Enjoy your "girl" weekend.
Lots of love,
Sommer
Thanks for stopping by again:-) Always love hearing from you!
Somehow babies always cause us to desire having them again...that is why I don't say that I am finished growing my family when people ask. I love children and see them as a heritage of the Lord. Mighty blessings indeed :-)
Those flowers are lovely...I've never seen them in white! How neat. Do you know what they are called?
Well, hope you are having a lovely day.
Lots of love,
Sommer
