Living temporarily away from home (because I discovered mold on the wall, not the same colour as the canvas though, which explained why I had been so sick all summer, but now it's drying for at least 2 more months) makes me miss all my stuff, including my junk boxes. Yes I have organised my junk, the only place I'm somewhat organised is in my craft area. I wanna go home, I want to be creative and try to be nearly as good as you :( So what do I do? I went and bought myself a new place, I'm signing the deal on friday :P It's perfect, it has a small closet with a door which would be perfect as a small craft room, it even had a light in the ceiling ^^ You need some special and comfy crafting clothes, so you don't ruin your clothes all the time :P Lovely work as always, despite the spiders.

+Anette M Pedersen Hi Anette, so glad you've found somewhere to play. I have a Ranger apron that I always forget to wear! It's my own fault..lol XO

I love your canvas! Can you get Murphy's Oil Soap in England? If so, a great soap to get paint off your trousers. I use it for getting paint off my clothes and I soak my brushes in it.

[@MikeDeakinArt]

+Anne Williamson I'll have a look Anne, but I've ruined so many pairs of jeans I've lost count..! XO

[@sonyalemacks7415]
