The Basket is Back....

I know...I said that I wasn't going to bring the laundry basket back in the workroom.  But...It is so much easier to distribute the little things from that, than is is from the floor.

Good news!  I found all of the supplies for the Russian Cottage last night.

See the jar to the left?  That's it!  It has all of the lace and wood needed to finish it.  I was a bit worried, because I couldn't remember where I had hidden the filigree fan blades.  No problem now.

Yes!  That's actually the floor.  I moved the desk back to it's former position in front of the window.  It makes the room look huge....The only problem?  The Terrible Two can sneak up on me now.

To the right, you can see the overrun of all of my jewelry making supplies. 

I have most everything in the right area now.  I just have to put everything in its place.

Here's proof that I will be able to walk around the room with ease now.

New Rule:  I can only drop things by the door "to put away later", if they fit on the eight inch square table by the door....Let's see how long that rule lasts.  Three pieces of fabric on top now....They are on their way to the fabric closet.

You were probably wondering about the infamous laundry basket.  Here it is, in all its glory.

I piled books on the shelves to be sorted into categories later today.  The object of the exercise was to see the floor....I did that!

Now I have to refine the sorting.  So far, I am very happy with the results. 

I am going to quit for a while and start working on the Russian cottage immediately.  I am thinking window trim will be next.

Did you notice Tessie's new tuffet in the first picture?  You may have to poke the photo to see.  Her new title is Spider Tamer Extraordinaire.  She put him on a leash and is stuffing him with dead flies every time he opens his mouth to complain.  Hey!  It works!

See you tomorrow.
