A few weeks ago my son had moved out leaving a couple of rooms that can be used for something else. So I came up with a display/ exercise/ work room and a relaxing room.
It is two rooms downstairs and I started to work on them here this past few days. Allot of work ahead of me but it is coming together. Last week when my son was visiting the tread mill went downstairs. So from there box after box after box went down stairs. Then the shelves that things were sitting on headed down stair. Up and down up and down I went. Now I'm pooped and my fibro/ousteo arthritis is now acting up because of the up and down. Now that will pass but for now am pooped.
Now just to get the rest of the stuff that belongs to my sons out of there and then I can start to set up the other room. In there will be a couple of tables and a desk to work at. I have shelves gallour down there to set my craft stuff on instead of it being stuffed in a closet were I have to get to it every time I need something. It feels so nice to be able to just grab something off the shelf and go to work on it.
I also love the idea that all of my crafts that are finished are in one place now. I have them on display now instead of them being in a box someplace and have to pull them out when someone wants to look at them. I now have to make a couple of things for displaying. on the door that is closed all the time i need a rack in order to hang my afghans on. I need a basket of some kind to be able to put my knitted dog beds I have made into. Maybe another shelf someplace to display more of my things. I have some of the things hung on the wall now. With the treadmill and the rowing machine sitting in the room it looks pretty good. Aw my women cave.
So now it will be the other room I have to work on now. Just get rid of my sons stuff and then I can do some work in there. Painting may be in order and then there will be a couple of tables set up there to work on. With the tv that my son had and the sound system that was left there. I will be all set up and able to work and watch tv and listen to music. Do some exercise with the equipment we have. Where it was before was too cramped in order to be able to do it. But now there is lots of room to be able to do things without a wall being in the way.
So now that retirement may be in my future here sometime in the future. Sooner maybe more then later I have place to go and play and work on my stuff. Soo excited about this now. And if anyone would like to come look at my work I can show it to them with out having to pull it out of a box or the closet. There are a few people who do want to see my crafty work.
So now. I have my work place in the garage were I can do sawdust stuff and a place in the house were I can scrap book , knit or just about anything else I put my mind to to do. Oh yeah and the exercise I need as well... Love it , love it, oh did I say I love it..
Well ladies come on out and see my crafty stuff. It is now set up an on display for me to show off. I can now make more and put it on display without worrying about where I am going to put it.
