Sweet Addie: August 2008

Where have I been you may be wondering? Well I wish I had a really legitimate excuse for being late to draw a winner for the Sweet Spaces Giveaway, but really I have just been so busy around the house, and getting my sweet space organized. Since I have been tardy, and there weren't too many spaces to put in the hat, I've decided to send everyone who participated a little surprise gift!! I am still drawing a name for the necklace I promised but you'll have to wait till' the end of this post to find out who the winner is!

I have a few more Sweet Spaces to share with you. I have been such a lazy bum when it comes to blogging lately, so I apologize for not posting these sooner!

First up is the Sweet Pat from Pat Winters Gatherings. She is a talented quilt maker, and was lovely enough to share some pics of her super organized studio space! Get a load of all her hand dyed silk ribbons! They look so gorgeous hanging up all together! Oh I am green with envy! Sorry I wasn't able to get these pics up sooner, but Pat is going to receive a surprise gift as well! Thanks Pat for sharing your stunning space!

Next is Emmmylizzzy. This gals space is amazing! Her organizing style is most like mine, organized chaos! She uses nontraditional things such as vintage Pyrex bowels (That's her lovely pic at the top of this post!) to store her craft supplies, and everything she loves is accessible and easy to see in the way she has put together this cute space! Thanks for sharing!

And lastly we have Helena from Craft and Creativity. Helena has the most amazing studio space, and creates the most adorable softies! Unfortunately I don't know how to convert pic, file types, and my computer was unable to decode her gif files! Please, please take a look at her space here! It's absolutely gorgeous, I promise you won't be disappointed!

So I know you all are dying to find out who the winner is. You are perched at the edge of your seat. The anticipation is killing you. OK, that might be a little overly dramatic, but I had to build the suspense right?

Drum roll please...

And the winner is:

Congrats Sweet Jessie! You are the lucky new owner of the vintage collage necklace! Please send me your shipping info so I can send it out to you! The cutie who picked the name from the bowl is my oldest munchkin!

Thanks again to everyone who participated and shared your beautiful spaces with us! All of you are also going to receive a little gift just for playing along! Please send me your shipping info, and I'll get your surprises out to you ASAP! Thanks for inspiring us all with your creativity and useful organizing inspirations!

Hi everyone! I have been out of the Internet loop lately due to a Internet service outage in my area! 7 whole days of no Internet!! I was truly going bonkers! Once the outage was fixed, my box decided it was going on strike, so I had to wait several more days to have a tech. come out and replace my box! Now I'm up and running again! I have several more Sweet Spaces to show you all and I'll start with these two sweet gals:

First up is The Lovely Cindy from Wrens Nest Cottage
Cindy has a gorgeous craft space that would make any crafty girl GREEN with envy! Her style is so country chic! Beautiful neutral colors, and ingenious storage make her room to die for! She makes her own paper, and has a penchant for plain brown boxes! Don't you just love her ribbon storage shown at the top of this post?! I'll be scouring the flea market to copy that idea! Lovely Cindy, just lovely!

Next up is Dorte from Denmark. What a soft and romantic space she has! Dorte creates her beautiful cards and ATC's here in this inspiring space! I could just hunker down and get really creative here, couldn't you!
