Anyone want to come and clean my studio?

It was a mess before but when we had the leak i literally just threw stuff in piles to prevent it from getting damaged. Plus I lost both carpets so I need to move my giant table to put down the new rug. Im too scared to even lift it a little for fear of the mountain of crap thats going to spill onto the floor.

So if anyone came to help me clean and organize Id pay you in scrap goodies. I have a HUGE stash to pick from (really it rivals most LSS's). Any takers??

I would totally do it if i could

Id totally let you too! Maybe in Feb lol

I can come take a bunch of stuff so you have less to organize

I just redid mine and it was a lot of work, so maybe another time. lol

whew I managed to get my carpet in and under my giant table all by myself. Now i just need to start cleaning the mess.

If I were closer, I'd totally help!

Does this arrangement include airfare? If so, I can fly out tomorrow!

If I had a gazillion $4 Id fly you all out

Sorry. The offer always stands though, so if you win the lottery this week, just let me know! Although if you win the lottery, then we could just go grab a day laborer to clean up after us all day while we scrap!

If I get to take dancing with Bella breaks you are on!

I wanna see pictures when you're all cleaned up again.

I'm changing around my space (since I'm crafting on a serious every day basis) after christmas. and I need some ideas.

I don't know if it will ever be good enough for pictures. its pretty Ghetto down there. lol

I scrap in an unfinished basement so open ceiling with beams and insulation, one wall is just studs the other 3 concrete. In an effort to try to keep some of the space heater heat in I have "artfully" stapled sheets to the wall and ceiling to provide an air barrier. The closest thing I can come to making it pretty is to paint the walls maybe this spring and staple colored sheets to the other wall.

Oh and I have fabulous kitchen cabinets but the top cabinets sit on the bottom ones since I don't have a way of attaching them to the walls. (and the bottom cabinets are missing all of the drawers.) So that means I have zero counter space which is actually a huge problem. Hence the giant piles of crap everywhere.

On the other hand it's filled with scrap crap and it's all mine (and better yet since it's hidden away i dont' have to clean it after every use).

Im going to have a scrapbooking yard sale this spring and sell off a TON of stuff so it will hopefully be more manageable,

Thats actually the thing I'm really excited about. I'm gonna have two 4x2 tables, so a whole 2x8 foot space to scrap on. It should be a fantastic mess. lol

I have 2 folding tables (one 4' one 5') on those rare occasions I have company and my work table is a small conference table I got for free from work. i think it's roughly 3'x6.5' so I am super spoiled in terms of actual scrap space (well when it's not piled with crap that is lol)

Maybe you should write a Bree-Dictionary...a Brictionary. That way you can define all your awesome words

YES!

oh mine is a mess toooooo! i did make a few cards last night, digging thru things and just making enough room to get them done. i hate it when it gets that way. but going to shape it up this weekend so its ready when i want to create!

My craft room is in a perpetual state of messiness! I started cleaning it Thanksgiving night after a trip to M's to get more of the storage cubes and still haven't finished. The area where the storage cubes are look great though!

Mine is actually pretty clean right now. All my stuff was packed away for Mason's b-day parties and now I'm unpacking and putting things nicely where they belong. Let's see how long it stays that way, though! lol
