Thank you for not being perky

I thought I should catalog my workspace for posterity although this is an older pic. I’ve cleaned it up a bit since. This is the first time I have had a dedicated crafting space and it’s freaking awesome. Before I would get all set up to sew on the kitchen table and then spend the next several months eating on the living room floor. Or I would get set up to paint on the living room floor and spend several months tiptoeing around it all. Now the art room is all crapped up all the time and it’s fine and the past few days the baby has hung out with me on his chair while I finished up my baby blankets! He’s so cute!!

and here is my sewing machine:

It’s a crappy Kenmore from Sears. I bought it in about 2001 while unemployed for 8 months. I thought, "hey! nows a great time to spend money on shit!" and then badger and I spent several months sewing crappy eye pillows and bags as christmas gifts. of course I immediately put stickers all over it.if you can’t decorate stuff you own then what’s the point of owning it? i feel the same way about my body, thus the tattoos and blue hair and stuff.

I do plan on cleaning and organizing the art room more. and i have some ideas for a few paintings as well. N is coming over in a few weeks and maybe I will work on some paintings/collage stuff then. The Ikea frames are already purchased! I also need to frame up my old leaf paintings. I still really like thenmand would like to get them all up on the walls.
