The opposite of a Man Cave is......

When my kids began moving out I was able to reclaim bedroom space for ME!  With some of my Christmas bonus money I went to IKEA, and organized my craft room.  A word about IKEA...we went when they first opened and I thought I was going to be sick before I got out of that place!  Didn't think I would ever go back because of the way they herded us through their showroom and all of the stuff seemed so cheap, (as in poor quality).  So, when they sent me a catalog last year I was able to slowly pick through it and decided I could go back.  I still think the quality of a lot of stuff is poor-- but it is affordable for those getting started or if you are looking for temporary furnishings.   Thanks for letting me vent.
So I bought one of the cube shelves and put it together one afternoon and I am happy with my fun space.  But it needs a clever name.  Now it's just "the sewing room" or "craft room" and I hope to spend a bunch of time in there this winter getting caught up on sewing and scrapbooking projects.

I also would love to find a black, twin size quilt for the daybed.  Black with white floral or leaf pattern.  I haven't ever spotted a fabric at the fabric store that I am crazy about.
What do I call my cave????

Post note:  I just saw this most awesome snipet of of bedspread on another post - but no link as to where to find it.  Wouldn't it be great?!

I love the Men.......

I am a bit prejudiced, well, A LOT prejudiced, but I just LOVE the new CD

5053126_men_of_the_motab_product

It has a great variety, I'm loving the Billy Joel song - completely accappella.

Run out and get one today!!!

And I mostly love just one of the men - whose picture can be found inside the front cover- kind of a "Where's Waldo" experience.  Let me know what you think.
