Craft Room Tour

This tour has been a long time coming!

Craft Room Tour

Welcome to my favorite part of the house! Isn't it delicious?

I wanted a room that was super bright and airy. Perfect for seeing those tiny details on projects. I needed a space to store my craft supplies, but it all needed to be stored somewhere where I could have easy access to it. And I scored both!

I've opted for open metal shelving for easy viewing of my supplies. And because the metal shelves are open it makes the small room seem not as cramped.

I've sorted my knitting needles, crochet hooks, and buttons in old glass jars by size and type. They're always nearby and it's easy to find the right one I'm looking for.

I've hung a ribbon with clothespins to pin up bits of inspiration or patterns that I'm working on.

An unexpected bonus to having a nicely organized room is that I'm more often feeling inspired! Seeing all my beautiful fabrics neatly displayed allows me to see what I actually have. It inspires me to make and not just hoard.

The room is sunny and always seems to have the best light in the house. It's tucked neatly into a back corner of the house and is very peaceful.

It's my dream room! It's definitely my favorite room in the house.

What are your craft storage solutions?

8 Days!

You can purchase this print at Vol25.
 
We will officially be home owners in 8 days!

We bought a sweet little 4 bedroom home here in Hamilton and I am so excited to have our own house! We have been staying with Phil's folks and this will be our first place together since we have been married.

We have lots of plans for the place and plan to replace the carpet as the first thing we do. We have lots of seedlings that we started growing and will transplant the veggie garden as soon as we move in! 
 
Also, we're getting a cat. Yay!!!!

I can't wait to take pictures and show you all! Start the countdown!

We're moving in SOON!

The spoils of our shopping

This morning we received some gift vouchers in the mail from some friends of ours. We took a quick look online to see some of the things the store had and went straight to the store (after a delicious breakfast) to pick up a few things for our future house.

And wowee did we walk away with a few things.

We were in luck! The store was having a fantastic sale and we walked away with more than we bargained for!



We got:
1 pizza stone
1 cupcake baking tray
(2) 9" round cake baking pans
(2) bread baking pans
1 Springform cake pan
1 Square cake pan
1 Bundt cake pan
1 Super large casserole dish
(I love this one)
6 Mini pie pans (for meat pies, oh and other stuff I guess) (I super love this one)

Oh! And the lady at the store gave us two free shopping bags to carry away our spoils in. SO nice. :)

It was SO fun and so lovely picking stuff out together and deciding on which things to get and which things to leave for now. It is so exciting dreaming our lives up together.

Until next time.
