New look?

Been thinking that I need to revamp by etsy shop. Make a new avatar, banner, and redo my shop announcement. Do you think that would help?

Thinking of going from the methods of the crafts to the items that I make. Setting it up as home deco, accessories, and children items. For the avatar, putting few items in it, so it is easier to tell what I'm selling. Banner - more photos of the items and a different title. When I get some worked up, I will post some possible banners and avatar.

Craft rooms are nice ...

Before my sons moved out on their own, I had all of my craft stuff on one side of my walk-in closet. Would work on a project in the living room or at the kitchen table and have to move it when I was done for the night. But now I have a whole room for it. So glad to have a room where I can go and do my crafts and not move things to be able to eat or make room for guest. Love being able to work on a project and just leave it as is when I have to go do something else.

Here are some views of the room.



My yarn storage, 12 drawers and I need more drawers. Or get all that yarn made up.



My collection of craft patterns. Last count there were over 375 leaflets,
182 magazines with 2147 patterns. And adding more..



More storage and entertainment




My work table. Doesn't look this clean all the time.

Time on my hands

Got a little time on my hands. I should be unstairs in my craft room working on my next project but not in the mood.

I want to thank eveyone who commented on my last entry. I do plan on doing more on plastic canvas. I'll try to do a how to but it will take a bit of time to get everything together - text and photos.

If anyone wants to see more picture of the dollhouse, here is the link to my flickr account http://www.flickr.com/photos/gailscrafts/
