This is for Mom!

Thank You!!!!!!!

Mom and Dad were here for a couple of days and this is what Mom and I did (mostly Mom though). I am embarrased to show the before pics but I am going to so I can show what Mom did for me this weekend. Just remember that I have been really busy and that the coasters on my desk weren't there until I brought them back from Truro on Saturday :)


Are you ready?


I'm not sure I can post this :)



Ok, here you go.....



This is the before picture of my desk and shelves.









Sorry Mom I had to post this one :) We were in our pj's most of the day.













And Emma had to help of course. She loves paint already.













Here it is - the after picture. I can't believe how much bigger my space looks! I can't wait till Joe gets home tonight so I can do some stamping.







I have a picture of the closet before but we didn't get the after picture yet so I will do that later and post them because there is a huge difference in there too.

Thank you again Mom. I can't wait to get to play in my new space.

P.S. I even had room for the new things I bought at Nicole's yesterday :)

WOW! What a difference for your creative "play space"! Sometimes all we need is that little extra push to get the clean-up/organization done right. My Mom is great that way too! I have been checking both of your blogs for news about Truro. Anything to share?!

Karen, God bless Myleta. She was a hero to me (printer caddy) and now to you. I may be the healer but your mom is the de-clutterer.(I make up words) Fr: Angie Eisnor

Karen! The room looks amazing - every scrappers dream playground! Your Mom did a fantastic job.
Tina, did the same for me this past Summer - everytime I know she is coming over I go do a *10 second tidy*

Every time I am done stamping I have been doing the "10 second tidy" (Nicole do you watch the big comfy couch too? LOL!!)
I am so happy with my space. I have made 7 cards in 3 days and cut out 3 of them for classes and it still looks the same and it is so easy to go up there and create. I love it:)
