I have little piles everywhere, and the only tidying happens when a) a project is done or b) people come over and the piles get tucked in the spare room... :)kimberly ahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08122255579577541950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7500979.post-33194302982797255152012-11-25T22:59:59.147-06:002012-11-25T22:59:59.147-06:00It is the way of the crafter!!It is the way of the crafter!!Impressedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18114606178262259441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7500979.post-48412672342147607262012-11-25T07:26:45.840-06:002012-11-25T07:26:45.840-06:00Great!

Piles of felt and bits and bobbins and glue and glitter. An assortment of stuff for my 3 year old to use to make preschooler crafts and for me to use to sew things, decorate the house (like ribbon that hasn't find the right wreath to call home yet) and wrap presents prettily. My husband seems amazed at how much mess I canLindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08307119158765850624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7500979.post-22504059965072363992012-11-24T14:17:34.860-06:002012-11-24T14:17:34.860-06:00Those messy piles look like my messy piles but wit...Those messy piles look like my messy piles but with lots and lots of yarn bags too!
