I highlighted a few things with numbers with a key in the caption area.
I have had these two apple crates for decades. I paired them with a few planks from an old fence I dragged home to make a table. I gathered up buckets, baskets and containers, cube shelves and a red shelf that I have had laying around waiting to be used. I even used a vintage fry basket (#10 above) to place my stencils and a few cutting supplies!
Just this area has taken me almost two full days to sort out all this stuff! I get going on one thing, and the next thing I know three hours have flown by!
I did take about an hour today to run by one of my favorite collectibles malls and take a peek around for a few things to help me organize my buttons and such. I found a few more things and scooped them up too! I threw this vignette together to show you what I found.
I'm super excited about the shutter combo in the background. I have been wanting to buy it, but it just wasn't the right price. Marked way down today! Yeah! Also, look at that neat folding ruler! Yeah! I have been looking for one of those for months! What about those jars? Awesome, right?!
I have just started putting together a work station for my computer, Silhouette Cameo, sewing machine and such. It is a work in progress...
Oh! and....today, the mail carrier delivered my package from Spoonflower! I ordered a super dee duper fabric combo for the glass front cabinet that I showed you in my blog post HERE. Gotta roll my sleeves up and get to that one too! Have you ever checked out Spoonflower? Wow...cool stuff.
Hope you enjoyed the little sneak peek into my world this week! It ain't the prettiest, but it's mine and it's coming together. I think I'll just..."Roll with it!"

LOVE that owl fabric, I will have to check out spoonflower as I have not heard of them before! Ahhh, it feels good doesn't it? I was out junkin' around a bit today too.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had good luck!

your fabric is adorable of course!
ReplyDeleteand look at you- making progress and getting organized! :)
Oh, I like this post so much better. Your optimistic disposition comes through in this one. I know you won't be surprised to hear I gave away apple crates when I moved. I have very little foresight, you see. (I guess that could be a pun.)
ReplyDeleteenormous progress! love that turquoise train case (and love that I can see your reflection holding the camera in the mirror!)
ReplyDeleteIts looking good, Lesley!
ReplyDeleteLooking good, Lesley. When you're finished, you can fly out and do mine. lol
ReplyDeleteKeep on rollin'! It's looking good.
ReplyDeleteOK you are making me look bad! lol I can wait to see what you do with the fabric. Cute owls which are your favorite so I know it will be used with care!
ReplyDeleteYou're so organized! Everything has a place and looks so pretty in all your containers! Thanks for linking up to Share the Love Wednesday!

I saw your office earlier this week and I've been meaning to stop by! I love how it's coming along. It's so organzied, but not sterile looking! Can't wait to see the rest!
ReplyDeleteNice going! I love all the layers and such and how everything's perfectly in reach. The jars are cool!
