you all know i've been working on moving my studio downstairs, right? i started 2 weeks ago, and have been making a lot of progress. also doing a lot of cleaning and purging. but today you could really see it all coming together. sort of. i could see it. and it's everything that i knew it could be. and the family? they weren't quite getting my ideas. but now that they're seeing it all happen, they're seeing my vision a little clearer now. here are some quick photos i took today of some of the behind the scenes stuff. just noticed this. you can see the time pass in a few of these photos, since they show the clocks. lol! 2:30 in the new scraproom, 5:30 in the playroom, 6:50 in the playroom. kind of funny. lol!
this has been a ripple effect. to move one thing, i have to move another thing. and to move that thing, i have to move yet another thing. there's furniture that we've had for years and years that is being passed on to other people. and we're reworking other furniture to new areas of the house. re-purposing everything in new ways. it's fun to see the same old stuff, but in new ways. i'm loving it.
and a big thanks to joe and my brother, scott. they did the heavy lifting tonight. i build a desk today and did all the organizing and moving of the little things. but they did the big, heavy furniture. we moved a big screen tv upstairs. moved a large red cabinet downstairs. moved 4 large oak bookshelves to the garage. moved a corner armoire tv cabinet downstairs, along with tv and vcr/dvd player. we've been going all day long. for the record, joe also cleaned the entire house. vacumming, moping, cleaning bathrooms. he does it all. i also snuck in some laundry, finished a scrap assignment, and ran some errands. and the girls? well, they went to school and then vegged in front of the tv while we worked. lol! it was fine though, they've had such a busy week that they havn't even had time to watch tv since sunday. and they did pitch in some here and there. it's looking good. more to come as we tidy everything up 🙂
