Thanks so much – you are right it would be a great project for teens or kids! I’ve really gotten into the mood of making journals, although I can’t really use them all…ahha! Thanks for stopping by and commenting, I really appreciate it.

Oh gosh…….i just love your journal! You have inspired me to do a journal with some junk mail i have been collecting……i might even make it into a project for local teens.

I love your space too………looks like it would be fun to create there!
Thanks for the inspiration!

Love, Violette xo

Hi Irene – thanks for visiting my blog! I suppose you are right, being messy is necessary when working on stuff…ahha! I think my hubby is a bit sad I’m taking over his space in the room too, I currently have a very large desk, but not a dedicated studio area that I can personally take over, so I feel bad being so messy. And I have to say I hope all our dreams come true

Hey Linda,
Your workspace reminded me of good old time whenever am being creative. That would be how messy it gets when creative wire is up and buzzing away…
I remembered I mentioned to my hubby that I wish to make my everyday to be my weekend, by doing what I love and enjoy. And guess what? Unforeseen circumstances came along..and am doing exactly what I once thought I couldn’t do. So be careful what you wish for

Thanks for stopping by my blog and the lovely comment too. Your encouragement is highly appreciated

Hehe, we can be messy together! Yeah, somehow it just piles up without me knowing. I agree having stuff out helps to inspire, but I would like to organize so I can see everything but have them in their place too. Oh, the best of both worlds!

I love that your space is just as messy as mine! I have papers, books, bills, magazines, pens and other stuff all crowded around my computer waiting and waiting to be put away. I have a huge desk that I use for making a creating jewellery and it is exactly the same with supplies and stock and work in progress. The mess might actually help the creativity… or not

I still have to figure out something for my patterned papers…there’s a lot of shops here in Italy with lots of cool patterns, so you get a roll. I suppose it’s for bookmaking, but they are so pretty I can’t cut into them. Oh and thanks for checking out my birdie drawings…I’m going to keep at it…funny how little simply things can be so amusing!
