Show Me Thursday

It's that time again for a nosey in everyones work space as a part of Sassy Cheryls Show Me Thursday challenge. I don't have a lot going on in mine right now, as I've been out of town for the weekend on an ADVENTURE(future post to tell you all about it). At any rate, this is what's happening in Tazmania right now.

Friday morning I got home from loading kayaks(part of the Adventure story), to find a Priority Mail box on the back of my car. I thought it was a late gift from DD for my DH for Father's day, but NO it was a box from me from my dear friend Linda C. She sent me a box of goodies including some glittery paper, some fabulous hot pink tulle and some sheer lime green ribbon(she knows me so well as this happens to be my favorite color combination). There were stamps and embellishments in the box too. Oh and I going to have some fun with these. Thank you dear friend.I'm also working on Copic cases to sell(raffling one off at the Lungs 4 Life Fundraiser), so last Thursday night I sat and scored two sets of boxes for the large Copic cases and one set of boxes for a Medium case(246 boxes total). I still have to fold and glue them all together along with actually sew the cases that these boxes go into.And finally, I have been wanting a rolling rack that would roll under the end of my work table that would hold my air compressor and my embellishment boxes. Because of the dimensions, it was very hard to find. DH had promised to build me on(that didn't happen) and then a dear friend's DH made me one, but lost my sketch and built what he thought I wanted. It would only hold two boxes of embellishments(my plans would have held 8). DH promised to add another shelf so it would hold 4 boxes of embellishments(that didn't happen either). Imagine my delight when last weekend at Sam's, I discovered this shoe rack. It didn't have rollers, but I decided I could add them, so made a side trip by Harbor Freight for the rollers. Well I had thought I could super glue the rollers onto the bottom of the legs, but that didn't work. I shamed DH into modifying the bottom(on Father's Day no less) by reminding him of the two above promises that didn't get delivered on. He wished me a Happy Mother's Day when he finished(he thinks he's funny and he is). At any rate this works great, because the top also holds not only my air compressor, but my Cuttlebug, my diecuts and my embossing folder and the two lower shelves have space for 6 boxes of embellishments. I have the left side of the table to use the air compressor or the Cuttlebug.Thanks for taking a nosey in my space and be sure to post your space over on Sassy Cheryl's blog. Hey we get to gander at what you have going on, and you have a chance of winning a free image. Come on and join the fun.

Show Me Thursday #2

It's Show Me Thursday over on Sassy Cheryl's Personal Blog and this week I'm back home. WOOHOOO. Since arriving home, I've been in full out crafting mode, other than an all day trip to Jackson(with a stop by Hobby Lobby of course) for a birthday lunch with my HS friends. Chaos reigns. I cleaned up a little bit.

First picture shows the table area(what's supposed to be my half) where I actually sit and color. You can see several colored versions of Jumping Jack Santa. The castle is one I created with my Make the Cut software and is for another challenge for Princesses. The last image is a Phindy's Place Christmas challenge and is due today. Since taking the picture, I've got the card made except for the sentiment. I came back to the house to do that and decided to post SMT first. The small Cricut you see on the far wall is my neighbor's and that side of the table and room is supposed to be hers to use. Since she's been redoing her house, I've taken over everything.

The second picture shows the tall table right behind my coloring area(top is a part of a bowling alley lane and it's finished with walnut). It's where I'm set up to take pictures of my cards and also where I do the rubber stamping. Today, it's also showing all those Martha Stewart punches I got ON SALE in Phoenix last week. I need DH to build me a new shelf so I have a place to put them.(I'll show you that shelf next week).

This third picture shows you my computer desk(laptop is in the house) setup with my printer and my Cricut. Unlike Cheryl, I'm all over the place. You can see my carport and all the leaves that have fallen. They don't get raked until they all fall off.

This last picture is a look inside my cabinets that my BFF's DH, my DH and I built just for Tazmania. I of course did the finish job.

As you can all see, I need to take a week or two or three and organize. Not happening any time soon. Why organize when you can have more fun crafting, and now with the Color Me Challenge Cheryl has going on with her images, I have even less time to clean and organize.

Hope you enjoyed your visit.
