When in the CREATIVE mood - everything up for grabs.

When I'm not in the CREATIVE mood - I tend to fall into the ORGANIZING mood.

Works for ME!

just bought one of the best things ever..don't know how I got along without it......
.............................a magnetic"pin-picker-upper"................

they are wonderful....dumped a whole container of pins the other evening and they were back in the tin in no time at all.....

The only time my room is what one would call "straightened up"
is when we go away for more than a few days.

why bother, it's only going to be back upside down again.......and i wouldn't be able to find a thing.

sometimes I am too neat...putting things away and then CANNOT FIND THEM! I do better with some creative clutter.
BUT...I do keep my pins neat!

Mine is currently nice and tidy. I'm just about to start a new quilt and cleaned the room this morning. Lol

Any chance we could find a way to get your neatness habits to rub off on me - perhaps an electronic brain transfer? Try as I might, I can't seem to master it.

Two things I can stand is an unmade bed, unless the sheets are in the washer/dryer and dirty dishes in the sink. I don't like alot of clutter, but can handle it if in a hurry to get to the sewing studio.
