Mundane Morning ~ Slow Craft Room Progression


Good Mundane Morning Crafties! πŸ€—  It's time, again, to take a moment, sit back, and catch up on what's happening in my Craftie world... ☕️

As you all know, my biggest Craftie commitment lately has been my craftroom.  I actually haven't done anything to it this week. My son has been visiting from out of town all week so I took that time to focus on visiting with him.  However, during that time, I have received some things for the room that I had ordered. 😁  First of which was some wood grain contact paper. My idea for this is to attemp to re-cover a pair of laminate drawer units that I have under my new work area, using this contact paper and mod podge.  This may or may not be worth the trouble. And it may or may not even work.  I'm reluctant about this step. I'm only even considering it because of the many many varying wood tones I've ended up with in there. My whole craft room is a hodgepodge of furniture that has been discarded from other rooms.  The drawer units are what I think is a rather ugly yellowish color but I've kept them because they are good quality.  I find myself wondering if it'd just be better to keep them as they are and deal with the ugly color, just to keep the integrity and durability that they have.  I could use some advice if y'all have any. 🀷🏻‍♀️

I still have made no advancement toward achieving bead shelves above my beading desk.πŸ˜•  This is something that I really want. I need to get busy drawing up some plans for that...

There is one very small thing that I am quite happy with though. And that is a small, inexpensive storage ottoman that I ordered from Walmart.  It will be wonderful extra storage space. But the best part is that it fits perfectly under my window to create an adorable little window seat for my fur baby Fancy. πŸ’–πŸΆ  She loves to go into the craft room with me and she already loves her new window seat. ☺️

Also, I continue building up my paper-crafting supplies.  I've nearly got what I need to at least begin. Be patient with me. I'll get there. πŸ˜‰

As for videos, I'll probably have some beading videos for you this week. I did receive the final component for an adorable Summer time bead charm. I've been searching for about a year for just the perfect beads for this charm and I've finally got everything! πŸ€—  So, be on the lookout for some beading videos this week. 

So, that's about it for now. Be sure to log on next Mundane Morning to see if I've progressed any further. Meanwhile, I'll be dreaming of a completed craftroom, paper crafting, and cooler weather. πŸπŸ‚

Until next time friends, stay Craftie! πŸ˜‰

  1. Maybe you could try priming and painting the furniture?
