enough is enough



okay. instead of cleaning and organizing which is what i said i would be doing today, I am talking about cleaning and organizing. seriously though...enough is enough. my art/craft supplies are out of control....in complete disarray....utter chaos....shall i go on? just trust me in saying that it's ridiculous.
So I combined all my earrings in my etsy shop and have found that i have hundreds....HUNDREDS...so absolutely no more making of earrings until most of those sell. I can't believe i have THAT MANY. It's actually a relief to not make jewelry for awhile.....this has enabled me to finally take the time to organize the rest of my craft stash. I know it's a little late, but I am making a dent in my yarn supply....scarves galore! I will list those on the etsy shop later this week. I just found a good bit of canvas bags and aprons that i need to use...I didn't even know i had any let!!
My whole motivation behind all this is first and foremost using what i have, and in order to do that, i need to know what i have. Secondly, I have no room to paint....and use my charcoal and pastels.....i am aching to do that again...it's been years. Thirdly...i am honestly tired of writing and talking about being organized...or rather not being organized. how many blog entries can i write about this until it dissolves itself as an issue for me??? grrrrr.

alright....much to do today, hopefully i can post some pics later this week of the new look.

  1. oh believe me i know this pain! but you're doing a much nobler thing than i did - you're actually making things out of the surplus - i just tossed my hands in the air and gave pretty much all of my stuff away! i'm wearing a pair of my fabby earrings today - love them!
