* Another illustration from my new line of notepads.....
Happy 2008! It's the 11th day of a new year, and I have been so busy that I have not made the time to visit my own blog. My hubby and I have been on a cleaning and organizational spree since '08 rolled in. With a little motivation and planning, together we have transformed my messy studio room into an efficient work space for the both of us to actually "function" in! Ha!.... Now, he even has his own desk, and I can actually find my drafting table! I avoided it for months, especially during my busy season where I spent long days in the basement sculpting. But, I have to say that it's worth the extra effort to take a little time to wade through the piles and organize! We even took a little field trip to the Container Store to find a few fun alternatives to store our "important stuff" in rather than letting things pile up and allowing the dust to settle....
Now, we're on to the basement for more fun! Oh boy, that WILL be a challenge....
When I get a sec, I'll take a few pics and post them here. For now, I just wanted to check in and say hi and encourage you to get on with the organizational projects too! Everybody's doing it! Join in on the fun :)

Happy New Year, Johanna!
I get organized about once a year.... One of these days we're going to build a garage where I'll have a little studio...
May 2008 Be Great!

That rooster is just adorable, Johanna! I so envy you getting organized....My husband says I'm a disaster, but I like to think of myself as organizationally impaired, lol...Anyway, you're inspiring me to at least make some headway, hehe....

I love the idea of getting organized, hee hee.. Actually, I am making headway.. wading through the piles of toys and purging them. Lots of trips to the thrift shops to donate.
Eventually I would like to buy an old farm.. and renovate the barn to house my studio in the loft.. that's my dream!!
Good luck with it all!

Organized??!! Is that really a word with a meaning? Is it really possible??? :0) It is my goal for 08 to do the same. It is coming along slowly. I would love to see photos of your space and what you have used to organize it. I need all the inspiration I can get!
Blessings,
Michelle
