More Organizing

I have been doing a lot of organizing in my own home lately...my idea of a 'vacation' I guess, but I haven't taken pictures yet. I did want to share some pictures of a project I did before Christmas tho. These are for a client's 9 year old daughter's room.



















I have to say, this was one of my favorite projects so far. Partly because the client and her daughter were so excited and totally helpful, but also because of the drastic change that took place in this room. This particular girl is a high 'fire' personality. She did not spend much time in her room before the make over. When we were finished, she asked if she could do her home work in her room. Her mom was amazed! I didn't want to leave the room either. It was wonderful!

I especially wanted to show the closet. It was overflowing when we started. When we were done...there was extra space! Check out the clear over the door hanger filled with Barbies! Because this girl is high 'fire' it is essential that she be able to "see" everything. Before, she would get everything out so she could see it. Now, she can see it all and just get out what she wants.

Polka quilt

I just love projects that can be made with my leftover scraps! This is a great example of just that kind of project. The colors are fun and sunny. Notice how the ribbon goes under the rectangle with the button to really make it pop!

Soccer, projects and....Blog Candy!!

Okay, I know I promised to post some blog candy a couple days ago but, what was I thinking? The weekend has become the crazy part of my week! We have entered the World of Soccer. All you soccer moms out there will totally know what I am talking about. We are still in the little leagues of it, only one practice a week and one game. Per child of course....I'm glad my son decided he didn't want to play. Two kids is enough! It was a beautiful weekend tho. The weather was awesome. The sun got bright during the afternoon game, but every few minutes it would rain so, it kept us nice an comfy. Only in Florida can you have rain on a sunny day. It is one of the wonders of the world. I put together a few goodies for Blog Candy today. I have been having way too much fun making stuff with coasters and patterned paper lately. Stampin' Up! has made it even easier to use these two items together by offering the Tombow Liquid Adhesive. If you haven't used it, you've got to! It is aw...

Birthday blog candy!

In honor of my birthday, I am offering another package of blog candy! All you have to do is leave a comment on this post telling me your favorite thing about getting older. :o) The candy includes a package of cardstock, metal edge tags, sanding block, cool metal border stickers, silver gel pen, and a set of mini gift cards stamped by yours truly. For some reason, my 'rechargeable batteries' decided not to 'recharge' anymore. I am quite distraught about that. I planned to share these pictures a couple of days ago, but....I had to wait til I bought some new batteries. I have to say tho, I was really afraid I had broken my camera! I'm glad it is just the batteries! I borrowed my friend's Precious stamp set the other day and have been having fun with it! I made this card using a square card base of chocolate chip (5-12" square). I stamped the swirlies in blue bayou onto a large piece of whisper white and onto a smaller piece. I cut out a butterfly and stuck i...
