" Envy is the art of counting the other fellow's blessings instead of our own" - Harold Coffin
In the Databazaar article done on Inspire Me Crafts, Kara Soos mentioned that "Some crafts enthusiasts dedicate an entire room to their projects, filled to the brim with all sorts of supplies and tools. Imagine how much money they spend on all those provisions!". Well.....I have a closet. Nothing to compare to these amazing and beautiful rooms that I came across at hgtv.com. I'll have to admit...I felt a little envy. Can you imagine walking into any of these rooms and getting to sit down and start creating?!? I'd lock myself in ANY of these rooms for days with a "Do Not Disturb" sign. But come on, its time to have a reality check. I'm all about full disclosure so to bring most of us back to reality I thought I would give you a peek into my little craft corner. Let's take a look at my craft closet part of a closet.
Well, here it is. Not much...some wire racks, some hand me down white shelves and a plastic drawer for my paper. But I do love my inspiration board! I used the wine cork board that I featured a while ago to pin my inspirations and ideas to. However, I am extremely happy because I just got those hand me down white shelves about a week ago and they have made a world of a difference in keeping my closet organized. So, although, I have a little craft closet envy this morning, I am also thankful that I do have my portion of a closet for my crafts...even if I share it with the garbage, blender, crock pot, chargers, and serving dishes!
If you want to create...don't make excuses because you don't have the new and improved tools or the fancy room. A nice kitchen table will do the trick :)
Be inspired, get creative, and have fun!
