And The Work Begins ...

Here is my studio before the project began. I know, it's a total disaster.

And here it is after about eight hours. I moved out almost everything and sorted through every drawer.

​OK, I am exhausted. We started the Carriage House re-organization project today. I spent 12 hours cleaning, scrubbing, sorting, organizing and throwing away! My apple watch is telling me I stood for over 12 hours and exceeded my daily 10,000 steps per day goal. So that's good!

I thought I should tell you that in order to make my plan work work, I needed to make a few purchases.

1. I bought wheels to go on one of my potting benches (it’s the one I use as a desk for marketing). Attaching the wheels with the electric screwdriver was our hardest task of the day.
2. I also purchased a few power strips, iphone/ipad charges and extension chords to solve my electrical issues.
3. I also bought wheels to put under my trash cans.
4. I am sending my comfy chair and ottoman to the upholsterer to get a slipcover made.
5. I purchased chalkboard paint, magnetic primer and dark chalk.
6. I bought bed risers for my painting table (for painting abstracts).

I think these items are absolutely necessary for my new plan. But fortunately they didn't cost a lot!

There is a slight chance this project will be finished tomorrow. I had booked all week to get it done but it is going pretty fast. Special thanks to my intern Elizabeth!
