Office Space

I have my office space downstairs in the study and my workroom on the third floor.  Running up and down the stairs is a little inconvenient at times but it keeps me skinny !

I was over at Bryn Alexander’s and got inspired to finally cover my mouse pad with a scrap of my drapery fabric.  What….. your mouse pad doesn’t match your drapes ?

My Inspiration board with pretty images and sayings……… An inspiration board is a place where you can collect things that inspire you to create.  It can have magazine pictures, quotes, flowers, keepsakes, fabrics, poems  or anything that gets your creative juices flowing.  I have a tip on mine that says, “When opportunity knocks, open the door, for heaven’s sake !”

Flicker has a lot of photos to get you inspired to make one….

What about you, do you already have one ?

Mirrored Armoire

I'm participating in Cheri's Knock Off Knock Out at It's so Very Cheri and
Metamorphosis Monday at Between Naps on the Porch. So head over to these ladies blogs and check out all the great projects.

I found a mirrored armoire in the Ballard catalog about 2 years ago that I fell in love with. Well, by the time I got around to ordering it..................it was discontinued ! I was heart broken !
So, after pouting about it for a day or two I decided that I could make one.
I headed to High Point and bought a black computer armoire and then I took the doors off and brought them to a local glass shop. They cut pieces of glass to fit into each section and ta da now I have one just as fabulous for about $ 600.00 less than the Ballard one.
