Occasionally, someone will ask to see my craft space, but I never seem to get around to sharing photos. Today, I finally had the chance to sit down to work on a card and I can't find what I'm looking for. I wonder why?
ha ha The real reason I never get around to sharing photos of my craft space! What a mess! I really should be too embarrassed to post this photo. lol I'm one of those crafters that cleans up her space only to have it buried again after working on a couple new projects. *wink* (No sneak peeks of new products for all you PTI detectives as I don't have new release stuff yet. But there is a sneak peek of one of the new products I plan to carry in my etsy store, but good luck finding it! *wink*)
My favorite things: the photos of my kiddos and the cards that they have made for me. My daughter drew the person (me) on the white card for me and my son made the frog and bunny cards for me. Sadly, I really need to sit down and edit photos that I've taken since the baby was born. I have lots of photos of him, but don't have any printed yet. Here's one of my favorite recent photos:
My husband took this photo of the kids and I last month when the baby turned 2 months. He'll be 3 months on Tuesday! I don't know where the time goes . . .
I'll be back tonight with my Stampavie post. Have a great afternoon (or night or morning depending upon where you are)!

I don't think that's embaressing at all! I can still see DESK space, bwahaha! Looks like a fun pile of goodies to go through:) I blew the picture up to see if I could find your new goodies, but I couldn't find it, lol!
Totally adorable pic of you and the kids, btw! You kinda look like Bella in that picture:)
What a sweet photo!!! Your room looks just fine, esp. for a very busy mother of 3! I find once I clean up my craft room, it inspires me to craft more & within a short while it looks the same way (AGAIN) -- I call it my "creative" look -- LOL!!!
For a small space, you have an amazing amount of storage. I think 1/2 of stampers have to have stuff everywhere to be creative and 1/2 need to have everything very neat. The only thing that matters is the final product. You do amazing work. Loved the picture of you and the kids. They are all so cute. Love those chubby cheeks.
Glad to know some else's craft room looks like mine! Love the picture of you and your children!! So sweet!! Have a great evening!
Yep, looks just like my pit, I mean stamp space, lol! Beautiful family though!
LOL My work area looks the same way. When I clean it it's a mess a few cards later so normally I don't even bother anymore haha..
WOW- love it!!!!
Love the sweet photo of you and the children. I also love seeing your work space. Mine often looks that way when I'm busing preparing for classes or working on multiple projects. I don't like working in a mess, or seeing the mess when I'm not working in my space, but when I'm working I often feel quite rushed and don't take the time to keep it tidy as I work. Therefore, my mess. But as others have said, the results you come up with are fantastic and that's what counts.
I love that you shared this photo of your work space - if it makes you feel better it looks tidier than mine does right now! I have the same problem - if I tidy it up, it only takes one or two projects and it looks like it did before I tidied!
heehee, mine's worse!
Love the pics and what a darling family! Hugs,
I'm glad im not the only one behind on baby photos!!! I finally downloaded the ones from the hos pital last week. Your kids are precious!!!!!
It looks like a well-loved craft space! I love the pic of you and the kids - looks like the baby has a cute round chubby face like his big sister!
What a wonderful photo of you snuggled up in a chair with your kids! How in the world did you manage to get everyone looking at the camera at the same time?! Let me know if you have any secrets! LOL
So glad you shared your craft space, too. It looks well loved and chock full of goodies, just the way it should be!
Oh Niki, EVERYONE has a workspace like that! It comes with the creative territory. Your kids are just gorgeous and yes, time does fly and they grow up soooo quickly but they will always be your babies, even when they are in their 30's like mine lol.
Oh such sweetness!
Thanks for sharing Niki...you should see my place right now, PTI everywhere.
I love the picture of you and your children. What a happy picture and I am so glad that your little one is better and did not need surgery...
please don't be embarrassed about your work space - it looks like you have been creating! loved the photo of you and the kids. enjoy this time with them - it doesn't last long. take care!
Such a wonderful pic of you and the kids! You should use a cropped version of this for your avatar/profile pic! So happy, even though you must be exhausted... Guess having children really is like that! ;)
What a sweet, happy photo!! As for your crafting space; looks normal to me. I am always suspicious of tidy desks. Grin
The pic of you and your children is splendid! Beautiful, beautiful family! Glad to know that other people have tons of stuff and only a tiny place cleared off on their destk to create on! BTW, being organized is helpful but no guarantee you'll find what you're looking for! I have so much stuff that I can't remember what all I have! I am reorganizing my craft room right now and every day has been like Christmas ... I've been happily surprised by "new" things (as in found what I forgot I had!) Wishing you a GOOD week ahead! :)
Love the fab picture of you and the kiddos, gorgeous kids Niki! I am so not brave enough to take a pict of my disaster area, but thanks for sharing your craft space!!
Thank you for sharing. A look at my messing work space as a sign that I had a productive time. By the look of yours I would have to say you were very, very product..haha. It's nice to know even the best can get messy.
GREAT pic of you & the kids!!
My space looks worse! Even AFTER I clean it up!!
Hi Niki
Always love to see craft rooms.
You and your childeren are such a happy bunch.
I loved the time when they were as old as your childeren,being around me,sharing everything.
I love to see pics of craft rooms too. Thanks for sharing!
My stamp counter gets totally messy when I'm working too....but I'm one of those sick people who HAS to clean it all up before moving onto the next project, lol!
Love the picture of you and all the kiddos!!
Very sweet picture!! So great to see the baby and everyone all together!! And don't worry - most of our desks look exactly like yours! I have to clear off my desk just to use it every day!

Did you just have that baby like 2 weeks ago or something? LOL Time sure does fly! Your kids are adorable!
If it makes you feel better, my space is messier. I lost my Scor-Pal once. Not the tool, the big board!
love the craft space! i don't know how you keep it that clean ; ) and its great to see a pic of you and the kids in real time. lovely!
This kind of reminds me of my crafting space. hehehe.. What a precious picture of you and your children. Glad to see everyone doing well. Take Care
Oh Niki, this makes me feel so much better! You are my type of crafter!!!
Tee hee! I love that it's not only me that works on a tiny square space on the cluttered desk LOL!!!! O I'd love to be a tidy crafter!
Sweet piccy of you and the kids too! Wow, 3 months already?!?!?
TFS!
Hugs,

What a lovely picture....Such a cute family, I'm sure daddy is just as good looking....you look skinny Niki !!!!
Love your scrap space...mess and all.
I took photos of my space a couple days ago when it was actually neat, but I know how fast a mess appears.
I'll have to get mine posted this week. :-)
your workspace is so much more organized than mine!! LOL! thanks for the peek at your desk and your kids are so cute! love the photo of you all!
Great pics! (yes, even the first one. It made me feel so much better. LOL!)
Thanks for posting not only the picture of your family but the picture of your workspace. Great to see where all that genius takes place! Wow, what a workspace!! Look at all those copics, and stamps... and ribbon .. and ink .. and paper ... wow ..
Niki -
It's hard to believe it's been three months! He is a CUTIE! BTW- your stamp/craft area resembles mine! LOL - oh well, creative people are rarely tidy...
Adorable family photo. I'm so glad to see that someone else creates in the same amount of space on their table as I do! I mean I could push stuff aside but it just piles up around me. Maybe it is the feeling of 'coziness' I enjoy.
Fun post Niki and your craft space reminds me of mine! The pic of your kids is adorable!!
I can still see room for more supplies.. there's empty space there... LOL. LOVE LOVE LOVE the photos of you and the kiddos. That baby is a little bundle.. sooooo cute!

I feel much better now. Your work space looks just like mine. I have very little space to work because of lal the stuff everywhere and yet I can always put my hand on what I'm looking for. Now if someone moved something within that space, I'd never find it again. That's why my workroom is off limits to everyone. Thanks for letting me know that others have the same issues.
Your craft room makes me feel better. You have to step around stuff in mine and I always feel bad about that. I am glad I am not the only one who is messy.
Your photo is gorgeous. What a cute family.
Hope you are well.
