Okay, so...this is my studio

Yes, it is February, and the Christmas tree is still up. I'm thinking Valentine's Day still counts as a holiday where decorations are permissible. Do people have Valentine's trees? Easter trees?

I'm dangerously close to becoming like that family in "Garden State" with the year-round Christmas tree when I leave it up for so long that there becomes little point in taking it down.

At any rate, this is where most of what I make, painting, quilt, doll, mess, has its start.

This is my studio after I cleaned it. I am trying to abide by the put-it-back-where-you-found-it rule. Rules annoy me. I really don't stand a chance. I will just end up having to clean it again.
