A Major Transformation !!


I bet you're going to be jealous after you read this post!

My friend Trudy came to house sit for her sister Mary Kate (also my friend) while their family is on vacation in the Philippines. Trudy loves to scrapbook, and she loves to organize scrapbooking stuff. I told her I hadn't done any scrapbooking for over a year & 1/2 because I just felt overwhelmed every time I tried to get back into it. She begged me to let her help me get my room organized. Hmmm, let me think... how long do you think it took me to accept that offer? ha I swallowed my pride and said SURE!!!

I am very fortunate to have a room where I have all my sewing, painting, rubber stamping, and scrapbooking projects. The problem is that things get moved and then I feel lost trying to pick back up where I was. I had different photo albums stacked 'neatly' on the bed with layouts 1/2 completed. I had just finished painting plant pots for Amy's teachers at school, & I hadn't gotten all of that put away yet. I was also working on a sewing service project for church, & so my machine was out...
Are you feeling a bit overwhelmed just reading this?

So...here are the embarrassing before pictures of my room---YIKES!


...And here you see the miracles Trudy worked
AMAZING, eh?

Don't you just feel peaceful looking at that?
I Love, Love, Love My Room Now!
Ahhh, want to come scrapbook anyone?

THANKS SO MUCH TRUDY!!

WOW MOM AND TRUDY!!! THAT IS AMAZING WORK!!!! THANK YOU TRUDY!!! That looks so nice! I can't wait to see it in person, hopefully it will stay that nice and clean. You should have had her do the whole house ha ha!

Mom, will you take a video of the room so I can see a 360 view? Thanks!
