I need to consolidate my creativity...

In wanting to post about what I am currently creating I took to my different craft areas around the house and started snapping photos
I found that I have far to many craft areas, I'm spread out all over the house and sometimes in the middle of one project I'll realize I need something I was using for another project that's two levels down or two levels up from where I am currently working... not always convenient.
I need to consolidate my creativity. . . 


(for more on a few of the individual projects, click the links found in the wording under some of the pictures)

Tray of crochet and embroidery floss that is actually also for crochet - sitting on the back of the couch in the living room to keep it out of reach from little hands
I am experimenting with embroidery floss to make more delicate things like earrings, we'll see how it goes
bags and basket of yarn, for crochet - sitting on the piano in the living room, again, because of little, curious hands
These are all my hat and flower supplies that I most often work on sitting in the living room (on the couch, not actually at the piano) while my kids play
Craft area in the basement with cardmaking and hairclip making remnants
this area has the shelving and storage bins, and I keep larger items like my Cricut cutter down here, but sometimes it's just plain cold in the basement, and I don't like being cold
sewing area in my room with dress to be mended and ring stacker to be completed
we have a small sitting area in our bedroom that fits my sewing machine nicely and keeps me on the same level as the kids while they nap which is usually my sewing time - the pillowcase dress I made for this past Easter has a spot or two where the bias tape is coming away from the main fabric that need to be fixed and the ring stacker was supposed to be my now 16month old daughter's 1st birthday present, though I have finished another ring since this picture and just have one left so I'm almost there
flower clips
some for purses some for fun
These are to go with the amazing purse that I will soon be listing in my Etsy shop and to use as accessories for whatever you like.  They are such a fun and bold size that the options for spicing things up are many
Bag of amazing fabric I had packed up to take for friends to make their purse choices
Though I haven't listed the purses yet, I have made one for myself and I use it all the time which has prompted several friends to commission custom purses from me - so excited to get started on them
The sweetest little seamstress there is...
really, what more can you say about this one, isn't she sweet? She loves to take the tape measure and wear it around her neck while she's "helping" me
