I really needed to get my Valentine Mantle up..this weekend I found some time to do it. I'm going with the "less is more" look. 
I have my papers in their new spot. I've purchased one cubbie for this project. Total cost so far $18.00. Last week all storage items were 1/2 off at Michael's.
Thank you for all your input with my craft room. I'm using the cottage curtains for now and think the sheers will work for the spring and summer months. I love any helpful hints if anyone has any to share!
Since hubby is a real estate agent, dear daughter and future son in law and I went house hunting this afternoon. They would like to purchase a home as the market is a "buyer's market". She also mentioned that they want to honeymoon in Hawaii...that is why they want a long engagement. I certainly want her to have her "Cinderella" wedding...sometimes you just can't have it all!

I'm loving the winter so far! Feeling more like spring here than winter! Not complaining!
Have a great week! You know what I'll be doing all week...in between the daily stuff! LOL
Warmly,

Your Valentine mantle is awesome! Your craftroom is amazing!! I love the hutch and the corner cabinet! Are you going to paint the corner cabinet? I think it would look good white to match the hutch and then you could do the scrapbook paper makeover on it like Elizabeth from Creative Breathing did on hers. It will be a great place to display all of your amazing collections! Have a great week Changeing!!! But, don't over do it!!
Hugs,
LOVE those chocolate boxes on the mantel. I can't get the energy to pull out the Valentine decorations. Thinking I may just pass on them this year and free up a bit of the basement...Still thinking...Enjoy!
Thanks for the motivation on Valentines Day Deb. I too am getting along with less and loving it! Your mantle looks so cute.
Bet you have wedding ideas swirling through your head How fun.
Love,
Debbie
Your mantle is just beautiful! I have not put out any Valentine decorations yet. So you are ahead of the game!
I've been catching up on your posts Deb. I love the way you've decorated your mantel with the candy boxes and frames...so clever!
I was happy to read that you're finally setting up a crafting space for yourself. You have talked about doing so for a long time. You will be so happy there. Mine is a terrible mess right now but I love to go in there and work on "stuff"!
I will be having my annual Birthday giveaway soon...keep posted! :D

Oh Deb, your mantle is absolutely gorgeous, and so is your blog header!
Looks so pretty I need to decorate but I love how you used the candy boxes on the mantel.
Deb - this is fabulous!!! I need to get crackin' and organize my crafty area! Whenever it's organized, then I love hanging out in my room. xo

I love the new header on your blog page. It looks so pretty. I also, want to let you notice that your puppies are Jack Russell Terriers.
They really are cute.
What a great craft room! Happy for you.

Ok you are really making progress, and I love the valentine Decor, the mantle is perfect! ox
I love your old chocolate box hearts! And the newly organized paper crafting area looks great! I bet it feels great to have everything just where you want it! I have a couple of those old sewing machine drawers too. And I like all your cases under the table too.
PS- Way to go! 6 boxes out of the house already!! WOW!!!
I love all of the vintage valentine goodness on your mantle!! I have a "H" just like the one on your mantle in black. You have inspired me to splash some paint on it. Loving all of your craft room makeover ideas too!
Have a great day, xxoo Heidi
Your studio space is inspiring, Deb! That is one project I really want to get in order in this year, too! Guess winter finally found us!
