Barn Door

I can not believe how quickly this week

has gone by. I finally have two rooms completely
cleared of boxes. I have set

a time table to have everything out of

storage and in the house. I am frantically

clearing space and going through boxes to

make room for the last storage unit's

contents. It will feel good to have every

thing in one place after three years.

My studio space is under construction. I

have changed my mind three times about

the set up and use. I think this time

I have figured it out. I have an art

supply area, a wet area for painting and

dying, a sewing area, and my work table

finally set up. Then I have a workshop

with all my tools, dremels, saws, etc.

As always there is a darkroom area.

It is so much more space than I had

before. I have been overwhelmed by the

space. I am hoping to put a huge dent in

it all this weekend. I would like to

see an end to the boxes. I would even

like to actually do something creative

in the near future.

Enough moaning from me. I loved this

picture of the barn doors. It looks

like a very frustrated farmer got into

this barn. Either he hit it with his

tractor or he ripped the door trying

to get in or out? I am sure there is

a good story here. Hope everyone has a

good weekend. Are you putting up your

tree?

Start the day with...Thriftiness

Last night was the last night in my house. Today the movers are coming to finish packing and whisk away my bed. Yesterday was bittersweet watching the contents of my house slowly being packed and put on a truck. My house will be happier I think. It needs a family to fill it with laughter and memories.

This morning I wanted to share this utility barn with you. I think it is so clever the way they used part of an old metal sign to cover the front and the door. How thrifty is that? True recycling going on here. When I stumbled upon this barn I realized the old cliche of "thinking outside the box" for a solution was alive and well!
