My Room & Stuff


                             
                         
                                                            My Room and all my Stuff.


Valentines 2018

                 About my room....     but first here are the specs of
                                                  the room - 10x12 feet with a closet of 6x2 feet;
                                                  furniture consist of a twin bed, dresser, desk & chair,
                                                  night stand, shelving, and storage drawers. And
                                                  let's not forget my seasonal containers/boxes &
                                                  laundry baskets.


                  Starting with my bed.... yes the bed is not made, like most days and I have
       way to many pillows - 5 to be exact. Love my pillows, though it is time for some
       new ones.

            
                  My bed through the years, at one point I had the mattress on the floor, which
         once down I struggled to get up and I was just about to become 50 - just think what
        that would be like, LOL. I ordered a bed frame a few years ago from Walmart.
        Loving it, perfect under bed storage even with the de-cluttering needed.

                               Next my Desk:


                    This is the best clean shot of my desk, 97% of the time it has something
          on it and it isn't always a project. Quite often it is a catch all for the things I
         think I may need for a project or some decor pieces that haven't found it's spot.

Summer of 2018
                         Think I was cleaning the day I took this picture - the chair is empty of
                 a laundry basket. At one point the desk had half the closet and I hanged clothes
                 in the other half. I would like to get a table and use it as a desk. I may have better
                 under storage for my craft supplies. The chair is gone so now I keep decor boxes in
                front of the desk.

                
                   .... and sometimes I have to use the Table to work at because there is just to much
         going on at the Desk.

              My Dresser:

When the bed was on the floor 2013   
  
       Also an ever changing spot and catch-all. And the TV 


           
               It holds all the norms - pj's, t-shirts, and a few whatnot's. Whatnot's being extra
       pocket tissues, medicine, fun Holiday jewelry, you know those kinda whatnot's.




               As an ever changing spot I am able to rotate pictures, styles and the Holiday vignettes.
     It will always keep my Make-up, hair bobs and jewelry, just wish I could get a system that
     will contain them better then the last system.

                                    The shelf over the dresser:

    
     This is where I have my Pretties when not being used for the Table or vignettes around the Room.



                         A Lavender French Farmhouse look. A surprise look since that is not my usual
       collecting; the bowl and tea cup was a gift from my dear friend Joyce.
             
                The Other Spots....

       There are a few other spots in my room that are have small pieces of furniture, making the
  room even smaller. A nightstand, a wire shelf, a slim bookcase, and a few organizer items.





              With the Desk being cluttered and I still have to do work stuff in my room -
      blog  planning, and creating; I brought in a TV tray and a bed tray.
     Which is ALWAYS :) surrounded with my ever growing craft supplies. Think this
      needs a better organizing system then my Dresser. This we may go into in depth
      of the Other Spots and how I organize this - which is Sooooo desperately in need.
                   
                       The Stuff....

          Some of these pictures are years old, I have been in this room for about 6 years and
   the  wall colors has been here even longer. I've wanted to paint but my room has just gathered
  Stuff over the years and moving everything out for a weekend to paint .... well, let's just say
  Not  Happening. Now the Sister ( remember this is Sister's home) wants to redo the floor though
 out the house - this might be the time to paint. I have been slowly working on where I will be
 putting all this Stuff.

             The Storage Shed:


               Only I don't think I have the room....

              This is what I have been up to the past few weeks... in the heat. I would be good
      one day & work on it then down for a day or two, (yes, in the early morn or early eve).
      I may have to rethink how and what I am storing. While writing this I can see how much
     more this can be shared after all the goal here is to have an Artful Life.


                  This will have to be in parts because there is so much more I want to say
          about the Room & Stuff and it is time to get ready for Retail.
                                              until next time,
                                                                 Mia
