I finally managed to get my sewing area clean and tidy. Now it's so tidy I can't bear to use it!
I keep the bare essentials on the table (it's Ikea). Everything I need to sew are in the little drawers and the scissors are in the black basket. I'm kind of a messy sewer so sooner or later, the table space gets piled up with this and that. I've put away everything else and I'm going to have a really hard time once I start sewing because I will spend a lot of time searching for this and that.
My Melly and Bear gets to sit near me.
I use a lot of pins when I sew. This big ass pin cushion does the job. It's a Chinese pin cushion which is a common feature in homes maybe in the 70's. Now, most homes won't even have a pin cushion.
I also have these 2 Chinese dolls containers. They're absolutely useless and are dust magnets. I have to find better use for them. Maybe to keep all the ear phones?
This year I hope to stop collecting containers as my home is so cluttered. Seriously, I don't need another container. The spring cleaning is still on-going but the vacuuming has come to a halt temporarily. I may be responsible. I opened up the vacuum cleaner to wash the sponge (a Dyson feature) and due to my negligence or Dyson's feature, the sponge disintegrated. Today I stupidly went out to look for a replacement sponge and after going to two stores, I was told to call a hotline. After ringing the hotline, I was told to go to a specific address to buy it. I feel so silly not to have thought of ringing up the hotline. What a waste of a couple of hours.
I should be starting my sewing soon. I haven't really felt like sewing anything this month. It's been great, relaxing and doing other crafts. But it's my bags that bring in the money. So I better get cracking. But first let me complete a couple of beading projects. It's so addictive!

I can't get over how tidy your sewing area is!!!
And I love the pin cushion, so cute.
Wow! I'd be so ashamed for you to see my sewing room right now! (I don't even want my HUSBAND to see it! I keep the door closed!) I need to start cleaning if I can ever catch up on the work I have to get done! Your space looks so neat and tidy!
What a tidy work area, I don't think I could ever get mine like that.
I love the cute little teddy in the rocking chair!
By the way does Bear know that you've put a flower on his head?
