sounds like everyone has made some progress! I've been concentrating on getting the books out of my art studio and putting them on shelves in my office. This will also be the new library area at least until I take the time to cull some of the books. I also took two large moveable carts full of finished paintings from a show I did 6 years ago and moved the carts and paintings up to the attic. They're still accessible should I decide I want to pull some of them out for another show, but they're no longer taking up room in my workspace- Yay! There is now room under my worktable for the plastic drawer units that I use to hold jewelry making stuff and also room for the two boxes that I used to organize my foam core and mailing supplies that I use and that had been stuffed into all different nooks and crannies that were a pain to get to. Moving all that stuff to under the table freed up the space in front of the bookshelves and now that the books are no longer in my art studio, those spaces on my bookshelves have been put to use holding all the bits that used to float around on whatever flat surface I wasn't using at the time. I still need to tackle my jeweler's bench, but that will have to wait a while as I really need to get back to the UFO on my design wall. I'm finally feeling creative after being in a dry spell all summer and I now actually have the space in my sewing studio to be able to work on things again!
Keep up the good work everyone!
