It's DONE! Finished!

It is a beautiful craft shed, now comes the packing and cleaning. It is great when things work out well, no matter how hard it was to do. I am helping my family renovate a home, but the people who were there before left such a mess, we cleaned and cleaned several bags full of rubbish and it barely made a dent, that is frustrating but it will get there. I had never seen a full cork door before, I am going to make a matt though to place outside to put the boots on http://blog.michellekaufmann.com/?p=1317

My friend elic, the pack rat, lol.Glad u have made the progress u have.Hope u can continue to be so productive.

Wow, that's awesome. I'm jealous! LOL Nice picture story, too. I can see why you won't be around as much, especially with Christmas coming on.

They did a good job. It's looks really nice and will be well lit with the white walls so working on projects will be easier. I bet it was hot out there! You will be needing and air conditioner and heater too soon. They do have window units that have both. They are nice to have. This has been a long project that you can enjoy now. I wish I had a nice work space, and get away from everyone for a bit like that. One day maybe but not soon. Too many other things that are needed. Make sure to pop back in and show us what you make.

Not that productive, but some; both Fr. Aidan & Fr. Paul came to visit today! :o) Your link won't let me connect. I tried twice. REST! You have ME tomorrow, as if you could forget!

Would you like to tell us about your sewing projects? kHave I told you that we lost our Sleepy cat last Wednesday? He had a serious. problem with his kidneys. The house is empty without him. Sorry to put a damper on y our happy post.

I did a product demo yesterday. Was supposed to have one today, and went, but no product. So, since I had already missed church, I went and looked through some stuff in the attic, emptied some items in the attic access closet, I FOUND a box of four patch squares I was putting together sometime. Not even sure when. They are big blocks, and twenty six are assembled. I have a bunch more half sewn or ready to assemble. I may find I have a quilt to tie soon. Maybe for one of my kids for Christmas. I am glad your project is finished and I bet it feels really good to say that.

You must feel a sense of achievement or fullfillment in completing such a big project. A craft shed is a fantastic idea. I tried to look at your link, but as I am using my work computer, it wont let mwe look properly at facebook. It is useful to have all your craft gear organised, as with being involved in variety of projects can mean searching for what you need is much easier. My daughter does a reasonable amount of craft and is only partially organised. Some of her gear is in the shed, some in a chest, and some in crates.

looks good! looks like your little fellow was quite a worker. is your shed heated?

That is fabulous! It is always nice to have a place to go to spend time doing our crafts. I want a home school room or building that my daughter and I can go to when we are doing school so that the phone doesn't interrupt us and we have all of our stuff together.

The craft shed is awesome! I bet you are very happy to have it done and ready to use! Great job!

Wonderful! I loved seeing how it was all coming along, it looks great! We will miss if you we don't see you for a bit, but get those projects out of the way first, the renovations and the crafting! Oh and I saw your comment about being the old fat one... You are not old and you are not fat! You're aged gracefully and healthy.. that's how I see it.

Congratulations on finally getting it done! You did a good job! It looks more like another room than a shed. It will be nice to have a place to do your craft projects. I envy you! My house is so small, there is only 1 bedroom so I keep everything by the couch.

Oh wow it looks awesome and congrats on a well done job! I had a quiet start for my weekend but was able to go out today and complete an assignment for which I got paid very well for doing so. I was also one of the 50 who was selected for an additional hour which then paid me double. So all in all my weekend was awesome. I am glad that the shed is finally done and you can then move on to other projects.

good for you I am glad you have it finished.

Yay! I'm glad you got it done. Boo! That we might not see as much of you here.

Awesome. Glad to hear it. I hope to see you around here more even though you are getting started on your other projects.

Aha - here is the discussion where you define the cork door. I'm going through my notifications in reverse order, so I'm finding this stuff after the fact. Now, if you'd like to do another shed project, feel free to come to New Jersey and I'll put you to work in our tiny back yard!! LOL

That is SO AWESOME! I'm so happy for you now that you have a really nice place to do your crafting. Oh, how I wish I had one like that! Lucky you!!! I had a craft room here that is really the middle-sized bedroom but since I'm sleeping here now and it is basically my bedroom, I've had to move some of my craft things into my office, which is the smallest bedroom so I have room for me, my dogs and my cats. (They ALL have to sleep with me.) That is something I'm going to be on the lookout for once I move out of here. I do have the other house and it has four bedrooms so there would be plenty of room for me to have a craft room but it's just too far away from my sons and my friends. I've been trying to sell it but, with this economy, it may take some time. Hopefully, I can sell that soon (I'm dropping the price) and have money to get something between here and Baltimore (where all my friends live, at least my real-life friends). I like it in Virginia because it's such an inexpensive place to live (especially compared to Baltimore) but I was born and raised in Baltimore. I don't want to live in the city so I've been looking around in Virginia. Trouble is, the closer you get to Washington, D.C., the more expensive everything is, at least those places with a bit of land (or a big yard) for a garden, fruit trees, and possibly even a new craft shed! I bet you're happy that the shed is finally finished, huh? Not just that but also because there's still time for Xmas projects! I hope we can get some photos of your projects, at least some of them, in your new shed. I'm so happy for you!

What a nice looking family you have!! It looks great. It's nice that it was a group effort and everyone pitched in. How did you attach the corks, with glue? I want the same thing, but I want a wook working shop. I like to build things.
