DH and I both keep our respective hidey hole doors shut when people are in the house. My fabric over-floweth and his fly tying "stuff" is even worse.

If I cleaned up at the end of every day I would never get anything finished. I would be spending all of my time figuring out where I left off yesterday. Clean up at the end of the project is my motto. It's my home, don't judge.

I cannot bring anyone into my space because you have to go through the bedroom and the hubby says no way.

Well, I aspire to me neater. It is a work in progress. I have had years of mental and physical illness which caused my house to become "Crapalot". So it's taking time to get things under control. Bedroom - check. Livingroom - check. Upstairs bathroom - check. DD's room - in progress :-) Sewing room - in progress!!! If it doesn't bother you or the ones you live with, then it's not a problem (unless it's a health hazard). If if bothers someone, then just work on it bit by bit.

Our sewing rooms may look like a tornado went through but it does keep us off of the streets and out of the bars..lol
