My Creative Space

Usually when I take a pic of My Creative Space, I stage it just a little. I tidy up. I make sure all the important elements of my craft make it into the shot (and the brekky dishes do not). So the end result is that it's a  concise and aesthetically pleasing photographic representation of my crafty adventures, rather than a picture of my space when I'm actually getting creative. Well, in the spirit of honesty, today you are getting The Real Deal.

Yep, this is how I create. In real life. Yes, that's my kitchen table. Yes, that's a coffee cup left over from breakfast in the background - you wouldn't want me to waste valuable crafting time by doing housework, now would you?
And because my creative space got too big for the table, I did some of it on the loungeroom floor.

Don't look too closely at the carpet, I haven't vacuumed in weeks.

I'm working on my Softie for Mirabel. For more pics of chicks avoiding housework Creative Spaces visit Kirsty.

Eyes ahead please - blogtober day 12

I was checking out this post over at HoppoBumpo this morning. Liesl is playing Eye Spy and is showing off a bright and lovely corner in her study. Hhmm, thought I, if I had a functioning computer with photos, maybe I could play along too.

Still musing over the possibilities, I glanced up at the corner of my kitchen. Uh Oh, bad move.

I have decided that even if I could upload photos this week, they certainly wouldn't be of any corners of my ceiling. Or my floor. I'm pretty sure if I actually take my eyes off my sewing machine/laptop screen and look up I'll just see more cobwebs. I try not to look down either due to the neglected state of my floors.

Eyes ahead, and just keep crafting thanks.
