How about we start there. Since moving here, my crafty mojo has been a bit off. I blame it on the fact that I didn't have a table to craft at.
For a while this is what I had to work with (and this is after moving it around a time or two).
The table was really low and I had to sit on Emma's step stool to work at the table. Not so cozy.
I had thoughts that a round table would be nice, but I was too cheap to buy one. Even a used one. So, I looked around and decided I could make one using most of what I already had. So, a quick trip to home depot, about $5 in lumber and hardware later, and I have this:
Now, I can get my craft on.
I made this journal from cardboard and pages from old books. I like to glue the old pages together to make them stronger, then paint over them.
Anyway, here are some photos.

A mishmash of pages from all the books I have altered- dictionary, old novels, the kiddo's completed work books, etc.

It feels so good to be creating again. I think it might become a daily habit.
Nice journal title and the insides too. But I noticed you posted at 11:00 pm...what are you doing up so late? Take care of yourself!
