WOYWW 232~Betsy and the Shelf

 Just look at the work space!!  It took some maneuvering of many different things, but I have SPACE on Betsy! LOL Thursday I encountered a scrapbook store that was closing ( so sad to see it go) and I wondered around a picked up a few good sale items, like Dylusions  spray inks at 50% off. (so I got one of each color they had left LOL, been wanting some of these)  In fact the whole store, fixtures and all were 50% off..  They have been in the closing mode for awhile, because there really wasn't much really good stuff left.  I came across a shelf and brackets that I knew would fit my space, and Betsy is really in need of GOOD shelving, so I picked it up. (grin)
Well, if you have been here before you know how much stuff has been crammed into poor ole Betsy.  As I removed all the junk things from the area I wanted to put the shelf I got to organizing a few of the other areas and making some work space.  I finally decided that my two wine coolers really should be closer to the wine glasses and way more accessible, so they got moved into the kitchen.  Not an easy task as they house about 75 bottles of wine that have to be removed before the coolers could be moved.........then restocked once in place in the kitchen. That left the space under the work top empty.  I have a couple of Iris carts that had been stored in a metal cabinet, just out of reach, so I brought them out, slid the desk DH works at down about 8" and set up more of a U shape work area.  I moved my turning wood storage to the top of one of the carts, it now sits lower and I can really see what I have in it now.....LOVE IT!
Okay, I know your here for WOYWW, and not to hear about my cleaning and organizing, so what is ON Betsy this week?





Happy mail!!!  A couple weeks ago the Gecko Gals were having a blog hop and I went through them all, leaving comments.  Then I get an e-mail from Melissa saying I won something for leaving a comment.  It came today and WOW is it great!  Everything on the large manila evny is what came inside it.
To the left are some Gecko Gals prints for some Christmas ornaments I'm making for a swap.  The turquoise box is holding some chip board shapes, for later.  Between the mail and the black basket thingy are the start of the ornaments I'm making ( sliver shapes), scissors, pointy thing, my Mod Podge, Dolphin paper weight, cold cup of coffee and my glasses.
