Messy-to-Classy Feb-March and some stitching progress........

Thank you for your lovely wishes on my wedding anniversary !! :) As usual, I am sorry , I could not reply to your comments :(

I am having a busy time, not sure, where the time is going . I missed the February Messy-to-Classy post . That's very bad of me as a host :(  My dear friend Daniela remembered and posted about her table makeover . That is very sweet of her. Thank you, Daniela !! :)

I have opened the Messy-to-Classy link for Feb-March and if you have anything to share, you may add there . My craft room is also the guest room and since my mother is staying in that room so I am not allowed to mess it up . Anyways , since I started this to put some discipline into maintaining my stash properly for which I never get time after I tend to daily organizing work at home .

So I just got my messed up fabric box to my bedroom and rearranged it .

Here is some stitching progress I have made on my Kitty Litter . I did not like the fabric and no where it is like a cotton as mentioned on the kit . I started it on my Birthday and I plan to finish it on my next when I turn 40 . But seeing the progress, looks like it will take atleast 3 years to complete .

Not sure, how that yellow shade is coming after uploading onto the post. It is not there in the original picture . I also worked on ladybird fairy's skirt .

Anshita's exams are going on well and will be done by 11th March . 

We all are just hooked on to Cricket World Cup and with India's smashing victory in all the three matches against South Africa, UAE and Pakistan....its going great !!:) The next one is scheduled on Friday with West Indies .

Hope you all are having fun :)

Have a nice day!

Messy-to-Classy, Recycled calendar, Thread storage ideas!! :)

Hope you had a nice weekend .  This is my first Messy-to-Classy update for year 2015 . And apart from my clean-up,  I also have some nice thread storage ideas to share with you all :)

So what did I do this month? I cleared my craft room desk which usually becomes a dumping place for any kind of paper work, crafting stuff, stationery and sometimes unwanted grocery bills .
This is what its state was since 15 days with some or the other junk finding its way onto my work space .

After few days, some more clutter

This is how it looks now!!

I like seeing it whenever I visit the room . Of course, it gets messed up again when I start crafting :)


Recycle:
This is a wooden perpetual calendar which we got as one of the New Year gifts from a well known watch company in India after we bought loads of wrist watches as gifts for relatives.

Anshita designed this cute picture for me with my blog header and titled as ‘My Craft Room’ :)  Isn’t it a lovely one?

Thread Storage ideas :
I am glad to share a post about ‘Thread storage ideas’  from Pam of  'Threading my way' .  She is an accomplished seamstress and loves gardening . She also hosts ongoing link parties under different categories where you can see variety of projects with tutorials from beginner to advanced levels . Just visit her; you are sure to get inspired .

There is a slight change that I am going to make to this link party to make it simple .  I will open a link every month on the sign-up page itself . I will remove the restriction of date and you may place link to as many posts you write for that respective month . Just click here or the ’Messy-to-Classy’ tab . You can sign-up and post any time .

I would be glad to know about you feedback on my craft space and the recycled piece even if you are not joining the party :)

Have a crafty week ahead!
