A Needed Change

  Months ago my DH suggested I take some of the books out of my craft room to make more space. So at that time I boxed up a lot of my books and stored them in another room. We had been discussing whether to build built-ins or freestanding bookcases for awhile as my books were still packed away.
  We finally decided on freestanding bookcases this past weekend when they went on sale. We purchased 3 white units so they would blend into the walls better. I will probably add some molding to these to give them an appearance of built-ins.

  I still have empty spaces to fill with either more books,photos, or knick-knacks. 

Another Cabinet For My Craftroom

    I got home from somewhere the other day and my DH told me 
my neighbor had a cabinet if I wanted it.I went to look at it and 
OF COURSE I wanted it.Then to figure out where would I put it?
I thought about my bedroom but really wanted it in the craftroom.
  I told my DH I would have to remove some shelves he had put up for me and put it there.They were probably easier for me to take them down then for him to put them up.Now I am in the process of
deciding what I want to move to this cabinet.The top photo shows the wire shelves - these were the ones I removed. 
 Next two photos of new to me cabinet,a lot more space than before.

Crop June 11th

My DD Chris and I attended the Vero Beach Scrapbook Crop on June 11th. I was working on the wordbook that I posted previously. Chris was working on pages of a trip she and her DH took to the Keys.

Wordbook

I finished a wordbook today for a friend.The wordbook is about her nephew Taylor.My DS designed the wordbook in Cricut Design Studio and cut it on her Cricut for me. I completed the rest of it. When I gave it to my friend,she was so thrilled with my surprise.

FINISHED WEDDING CAKE

A lot of work!  I star-tipped the whole thing. That is a lot of stars.

I have decided after making 2-3tier wedding cakes that I will stick to birthday cakes,they are a lot smaller.

MAKING A WEDDING CAKE

A co-worker of my oldest DD is getting married tomorrow and I am making her cake. The cake will be 3 tier with Silk flowers.I have 4 layers baked and 1 in the oven,1 more layer after that. The tiers will be 6,10,12 - 2 layers each. The flavor is fudge marble with a white buttercream frosting.Frosting still has to be made. Assembly tomorrow and pick-up.

Photo Challenge

  One of the blogs I follow Creations with Christina just issued a challenge,take a photo of your scrap desk(without cleaning it up).I took my photo of my almost clean surface.One project I am working on and the things at the front of the desk were just taken off a shelf unit so I could paint it.Paint has been applied and is drying.
