What I've Been Up To....

I spent last Monday and Tuesday helping my friend, Pam, get her scrapbook room set up. I forgot to take the "before" pictures on Monday. What you are seeing here is already how it looked by Tuesday. This was the biggest challenge of my career! 





I was pretty overwhelmed right off the bat because she hauled all her stuff in before getting all of the other stuff out. It was a huge mess with no where to walk or even put things. We couldn't move the furniture as there was no room.  I didn't think we could get it done in two days, but we did. Of course, that didn't allow me to organize anything to the nth degree---not usually how I like to work. But as you can see, the end result is fabulous! At least she'll go through the holidays with it looking good. Just don't open the closet! The walls are lime green, they came out lighter in the photos. Here you can see her old camera collection and her grandmother's apron on the mannequin. Pam had been collecting her decorations and containers for the past two years. That's my favorite part---the decorating. I do it last---sort of like dessert after all the hard work is done. I just love organizing stuff!
