    I'm all in! I am in the midst of changing rooms within the house for my sewing/crafting area to be. A much smaller area but one that I can close the door to and keep the cats out while I am not in there so they don't get hurt with any tools, cutters, pins, needles, etc. I will post pics soon.

    I have been working on my sewing space the past few weeks. It is a domino effect. Something belongs somewhere else, so you have to clean there, etc. I was given money for a new table for Christmas. I picked it up today at IKEA. It has adjustable legs - I can use in in multiple ways - sewing, cutting, etc. I am not ready to put it in place yet - but having the table in waiting is my incentive. My family is thrilled to see the junk slowly disappearing. They have to remember, it took years for my room to get so cluttered, it will not happen overnight. And Goodwill is getting some awesome things!

    Alot of help you all are..

    Good grief,,so i gotta move to get someone to organize for me ?:! :O
    Seriously, i would love for someone to come in and have a make-over in my room.
    my DD's have entered my name in for room make0vers,,apparently they didn't send pictures!

    Heck, i would love a makeover for me..! I am a northern born,southerner at heart, retired steelworker!Rode a motorcycle,worked on my own car, had a pool/billiards traveling team for years..
    Never been pretty, but nice as heck! ROFL..never got into clothes,makeup, or fancy..I wonder who told my girls about make-up and blow dryers and hot rollers? it sure was not me! My bathroom got bigger when they moved out!

    we will get through this..all together..and the ones that know how to do it..will help us!!! Yeah!

    wow, prquilter, that is exactly what my hubby did with mine.

    me too!
    I went there and pics were blurry, so clicked on slide show, and they weren't moving...(I am on dial up), so I clicked on full screen...only got about 1/5th of picture, so I held down ctrl button and rolled mouse button...(tickled a little...hee hee hee :wink:)
    anyway, I didn't get to see much, but could tell, she doesn't have all the junk...um, stuff, that I do!:oops:

    Hey brush and thimble,
    I have that gray organizer too. Mine is full of fabric except for the bottom drawer that has fusibles etc. in it.
