Okay – and not really inviting at all.  But it worked, and I was quite productive in there.  Just think about all those great Halloween costumes that came from this factory.

The first step in the repair required by the failure of the upstairs shower drain and resulting flood.  Not just unsightly, but a little unsettling to have a gaping hole in the ceiling.  What creatures might be lurking there?

This was as much an adventure as it looks!  Don was a great sport about using the highly pressurized can of “popcorn.”

Closet organizers (that we had purchased about 7 years ago) created a great space for all my supplies – and the required stash of fabric.  The room was really starting to feel like a creative space.

Emily’s pegboard inspired me to have one of my own.

What  a fun place to work!
