Welcome to week one of the craft room challenge! If you haven’t seen our intro videos you are in for a treat. They are really cute if I do say so myself.
Each week our group of bloggers (12) will share our progress with you as well as share what the topic of the week is so you can work along with us. Feel free to join us on social media using the hashtags #craftroomchallenge and #confessyourmess. Now on to my mess!
Normally, my craft room is very tidy, but with the holiday things got away from me. I received some new furniture, made some Christmas gifts and then there was keeping us with December Daily…cleaning up just got away from me. I mean look at my desk!
There are also a ton of things in the space that aren’t mine…mostly kids things. Obviously I’m not the one playing with the Pokemon things…or am I…haha All kidding aside my desk becomes the catch all for anything the kids don’t know what to do with immediately, or are just in to much of a hurry to put away correctly.
There is also just to much furniture in the space for the size that it is. I need to find new way to store what I have and get some of the things either off the walls and/or up off the floor. Anything that isn’t scrapbook or office related needs to leave this space as well.
My goal for this challenge is to have a more streamlined space. I want to stop feeling like the walls are closing in due to stuff everywhere. I find I creating easier when not overwhelmed with things. I also need to let go of things that I have decided aren’t my craft. For example, I’m a very simple stamper, and not a colorer, so things that don’t match that need to be re-homed either via donation or sale.
Our goal for week one is cleaning off our work surface. Go on and find that missing desk or table. Make the flat space clean enough that you could create something if needed. I can’t wait to get myself in order and see how you use this challenge to get your space in order. Don’t forget to come back next week to see how I did and see what the next challenge is!
Welcome to the 2018 Craft Room Challenge! From January 3rd through January 31st, 14 crafty bloggers will be sorting, organizing, cleaning, and decorating their craft spaces. Each of us has a very different craft space to tackle, so chances are you will find one similar to yours. We’d love for you to join in on the fun challenge and clean right alongside us. Follow along and join in on social media by using #craftroomchallenge and #confessyourmess. You can also find us and the challenge via our social media accounts you’ll see listed on each of our sites. We’ll also have 15-minute mini daily challenges for you in case you have limited time to dedicate to the challenge. We hope you share your messy spaces and progress with us so we don’t feel alone this month!
