Where the Magic Happens

Or at least where I spend the majority of my time these days. It’s nothing special really but I thought you might want to see where I do all of my work. My supplies keep multiplying therefore my space continues to grow. When I first started I had one container for the dyes in their jars and one laundry basket with the dyes in their containers. Now I have the dyes inside on a cart, a new storage unit outside and the yarns all in a closet in the office. I have about 50+ lbs of yarn that should be here any day and I have no clue where that is going to live. I need more space! I also took a picture of one of my most favorite pieces of art we have in the house. It’s a felted piece that symbolizes creativity. It hangs in our dining room which is also where I do most of my computer work.

As you can see. My dye room is my porch. Luckily It’s nice most days of the year to work back there. I love it. I get the sun all day and my yarns only take a few hours to dry. A lot of the time I bring my computer out there and listen to podcasts.

Not very exciting now is it? But hey. It works for me. Also, this way I don’t get dye on my pretty tiled floor. So that’s where I do all of my work! Click the picture to see the individual pictures.

In shop news I have a lot going on behind the scenes. In about an hour I’m meeting with Merchant Services so I can have my own credit cards on the website. This way you don’t need a Paypal account to buy yarn from me. It will also make a huge difference for the next round of the Indie Swag Club as it won’t oversell spots! I will still accept Paypal though so don’t worry if that’s what you like to use.

The other stuff…..I’ll tell you as soon as I can. I’m getting really excited about it though. I’m blaming Bruce as it’s his fault. Yesterday, Supergirl and I met him for lunch along with his beautiful daughter and as always, he got me thinking about what else I can do with my business…..wait and see!
