Non-Scrapping Weekend


Can you believe it...I didn't scrap!!!

I wanted to - but my scrap space was getting beyond a joke...so I did the overhaul, the unthinkable...I turned my dining room back into a dining room & I vacated the kitchen bench...I have relocated to the office..Wayne suggested moving the dining table into the office - but that would defeat the purpose...so I suggested we get a trestle table...so we agreed...move the scrap stuff into the office on Sat & then on Sunday go & buy a trestle table for me.

Well, we went to get the trestle table & Wayne says its too narrow...I don't care I need to scrap...but I cave & we decide to look for a 2nd hand dining table on Trademe...missed one for $50...but got this super-cool, super-spacious luxury scrap table for the grand sum of $30...mind you I don't actually have it yet - just hit the buy-now button this morning & haven't heard from the guy yet - he is oblivious to my excitement & anticipation LOL!

It measures 1.4m x 1.4m & has a cool cut-out for a space to sit...ohhhhh I can't wait!!!!

Now, because I am in scrapping limbo I am able to complete my "So You Think You Know Me?" workbook from Shimelle. I'm really excited about this project.

Isn't it amazing how blogging connects us??

I was reading Elsie's blog & clicked on the link to Shimelle & the went surfing again only to be drawn back to the "So You Think You Know Me" project a couple of days later (thankfully I could remember where I came across it LOL) & then before you know it I'm clicking the Paypal link & I'm a paid up class member :o)

Now that I'm in the class I've added another dozen blogs of my class mates to my list...how is the washing ever going to get done???? ROFL!!!

OK its 11.30 & I haven't had breeky yet...I'd better get off the computer!

OMG! Kelly, what a difference. I didn't think the before photo looked like a dining room. The new scrap table looks great. I've brought some really cool furniture from trade me. Isn't TM great?

Wow - you must be pleased to have your dining room back!! Like Tanya, I didn't realise the first photo WAS your dining room, ROFL!!!

Great table, too! I bet you'll be scrapping even more (hang on, is that even possible??) when you get your hands on it :-)
