I finally buckled down, found some energy and attacked my sewing room.
Part of the thing that helped is the fact I made room in our hall bathroom closet for a lot of my wigs & hair styling stuff that had previously just been sitting around my office. Having somewhere to put all the wigs and wigheads kinda got me over the hump.
There’s still about a half hour of work left to do, I reckon. Stuff I’m still trying to figure out where to put it (most of what’s on the floor) and final straightening and little things like I want to rearrange my bulletin board on the side. I may take it down and move it to the other side of the room to make that area look less crowded.
Chase put my Mjolnir light up for me Saturday – unfortunately it was not interested in staying on the cabinet door where I wanted it, so I think I may move it down onto the wall where the bulletin board I want to move is currently.
Over by the door, we finally got my ironing board rack installed! I’m so excited for the iron and ironing board to finally have a permanent home. I also put picture frames up the small wall.
This is the wall where I think I’m going to move that bulletin board to – there’s room near the bottom there for it.
Chase gave me some corner shelves he’d had in his office and wasn’t using anymore, so he put those up for me and put some action figures on them. I wish my Ame-Comi Wonder Woman wasn’t missing her stand, but she leans against the wall ok.
Finally, you might remember the wardrobe I painted a while back. It was mine when I was little and my great-uncle’s before that, and, what’s not picture in those photos are the absolutely awful curtains that go in the doors. They’re original to it, from the 70s when it was owned by my smoker great-uncle, and then went on to sit outside in our garage for about 15 years. Even after washing them like crazy they looked so dingy and gross! I’ve kept them around, in place in the wardrobe doors, just so I don’t lose them – I want to use them as a pattern to make new ones.
Anyway, I found a box of stuff from my old job in the garage and thought it was a bunch of trash til I started digging through it. I found a pair of curtains I’d made for some of the small office windows there. They don’t match but when I held one out, I thought, this looks like it might fit in my wardrobe. So I took them in and put them on the rods – and they’re maybe an inch too short, but they look SO much better.
I picked up some of Joann’s Tardis fabric a couple of weeks ago – I’d like to make curtains out of that eventually, but for now, I have something cute in there.
