Where Bloggers create 2016!

Hello

and

welcome to my favorite blog party of the summer

"Where Bloggers Create 2016". 

First I would like to thank Karen Valentine of

"My Desert Cottage"

for hosting this wonderful event.

Thanks Karen for all your

hart work to make this event happen!

And thanks to all of you for stopping by

and partying along!

While working on this blog post I realized how similar this 

post is to what I posted last year,

nothing much changed,

still the same yellow walls and

yes, the room is still an "organized" mess.

I had the feeling I had to come up with a

different approach to this years party post.

So sitting here,

I asked myself the question

"Where do I create?"

And there it was, 

not just one space but several

in and around our home.

So with no further delay here is a tour of

my creative spaces!!!

  

Still my favorite space in our house,

my stamp-room. 

 Come one in and take a look.

The little shelf holds some of my Stampin'Up!

and other stamps.

 My little desk where I make all my cards

and many of my other craftzy creations. 

The window is overlooking the back yard.

 The little dresser drawer hold all my

dies, embossing folders and

some other odds and ends.

 What's behind the door you ask...

... well...

 ... that's where I hide the mess.

Organized in one way or the other.

 I love to display my stamps or 

you could say I decorate the house with them.

 Recycled cork board.

 More shelving.

 How many cowls can one chair hold?

The sewing corner.

Finally uncovered the sewing machine 

and working on some small projects,

I gotten a bit rusty over the years.

The cutting corner, Cricut and all.

 Found the cute little shutters in an antique store

in Glendale, Ky.

 More storage under the cutting table.

 Hope you liked my favorite room in the house,

but wait their is more...

 ... our study, this used to be my crafts room,

maybe you can remember,

I like to forget,

here, 

well its all tidied up now

and holds all my craft books,

magazines

computer stuff and

bits and pieces of my other addiction,

yarn and knitting.

 My knitting chair,

perfect on cold winter or rainy days.

 Hello Sock monkeys!

Are you ready for more?

Let's move to the great outdoors...

 ... welcome to our porch,

great for knitting, reading or just sitting!

Lot's of cowls get created here on breeze summer days.

 Last but not least,

my little retreat,

this is where I go after a long day at work,

sitting in an office with no windows.

This is one of my favorite spots in our yard,

my veggie patch.

 Love getting my hands dirty after a stressful day,

it's therapy for me.

Or just sitting in the shade and watching the world go by.

Mostly critter watching,listening to the birds and

finding inspiration for a new project. 

 The garden shed with ...

... a Bistro set we found at the flea market 

on the front porch.

I hope I didn't bore you all to much

and you enjoyed the tour of

my creative spaces.

So with the view of our peaceful and quiet back yard

I let you go to explore all the other fabulous blogs.

Hope to see you around,

love to heare from you

and

Thank You so much for stopping by!

Happy blog hop Party!
