My Spring Clean up!

Many of you who have chatted with me or taken my classes have heard me call my scrapbooking room "the hoarder space".  I had a moment of realization that I could no longer create anymore with the amount of mess that I had created.  Thus, I took a page from Kathleen Boland's clean up book and spent 3 days cleaning up the mess, purging as I went.  I feel so much better about where I can create now.  While I am far too embarrassed about showing the before pictures, I have a few after shots of my scrapbooking space!  TADA!!!  My new and improved scrapbooking space.......


If you too need a little jump start to help with your spring clean up, check out Kathleen's website at: http://kathleenboland.com/As for me, the purging has resulted in boxes of never used products so I will be having a Scrapbooking Garage sale will be held on Saturday June 11th from 9 - 4.  The Scrapbook Lounge will also be open if you are looking for new items as well as come great deals on barely used items.
Hope to see you then!
