Saturday Puttering

I have ignored this closet for far too long

some things untouched for years!

I want to paint it 

since that won't be happening soon

figured at least I could clean it out

so today I'm alternating between cleaning

hooking little simple pieces

(about 6 x 6)

preparing invoices for my booklets...

tomorrow I will take the designs to make copies

back to the closet

it used to be worse

over time I have used up many bottles of polish and cleaners

shampoo, hand lotion 

but the light bulbs!

they never seem to end

my parents had enough for the whole neighborhood

I have been placing all "like" things together

so brought another 15 packages

of light bulbs in from the garage

will check and see if they work then donate

Hope your having a wonderful day

this morning it was cool and breezy

with windows open 

I could hear all the chimes Mom had around the house

of course it made me smile

Dyeing In Progress

today is the day

wool finally made it into the pots

three pots done

two more on the stove

I'll show all the wool when I put the pots away

later this week

the stack on the dye table is growing

I'm nearly done with one closet

a few stacks of too thin and too loose wool

still in the sewing room

wondering where to donate 

some cleaning done in between

I'm a a major procrastinator

so any time I actually feel like cleaning

I do 

the cats are very busy following me around

came across a bunch of red dot 

from when I was planning on selling patterns on linen

(only 4 or 5 years ago)

since then 

I've come to realize I hate drawing patterns on linen for others

for myself I can have errors galore

hope you're having a great week too!
