The awful truth...

OK, it's confession time...

The room you saw in the Meet & Greet may not have been an accurate representation of the actual craft space. Helen Chilton was on to me when she said 'all you've done is piled the mess up just outside the photo' and she was right.

So here is a view of the attic as it normally looks after a crafty session (spent all day yesterday prepping my Newbury demo and doing a two page project for the mag). I am very, very bad at tidying up after I finish something... hence the piles of debris to the left and right of the actual workspace...

Anyone else as messy as me??? Go on, fess up. We'd love to see!

    ahhhhhh MUCH better!!

    yep...and mine spreads out into different rooms too if I run out of space (I have a craft room but its packed out). AND if the ironing board is still up from ironing the kids uniform, I will use that too when I run out of dining table rofl

    Looks great!

    I wish I could leave my stuff like this on the table. But no, I'm crafting on the dinner table so..... I have to clean it up every day (just throw it in a cupboard or a bookcase).

    Wow, looks great.

    I wish I could leave my craft table like this.
    But no, I craft at the dinnertable so......I have to clean it up every time. Just throwing everything in the cupboard (behind doors).

    Haha! I'm pretty much the same, though! I just had a tidy up today after I only had a card sized area left for crafting and the rest was covered in product I'd used in the past weeks.

    Lol; the truth is out, your craft space is as messy as all crafters.

    I think it looks fine - a slightly untidy space denotes a creative soul.

    This is just like my room. Boy, am I ever happy to see your desk is messy too. It is encouraging to see I'm not alone.

    I love a creative mes, but before I start a new project I have to clean up first.
    Or else I cant find a thing.

    My desk is just as messy when I am crafting too! I call it constructive organisation because I know where everything is!
