TRANSFORMERS ROCK!!!!!

WOW, what a great movie.... Let me start by saying that I did not want to see this movie at all... I had been dreading going all week but now I am so glad that I went. It was such a great movie and now one of my new favorites. I want to go and see it again, anyone up for it??? It will be making an appearance in our movie selection as soon as it comes out on DVD... Just had to let everyone know that it is a movie not to be missed.... Hopefully Transformers 2 will be making an appearance next summer... Let's keep our fingers crossed....
In other news, I have finally started working on our Hawaii scrapbook... I do not know why it has taken me so long to start on this project.... I did find some really cute paper at our LSS that really got my mind turning so it must have sparked some creativity in me... I also have to say that I finally got to spend some time in our LSS and I am loving there new store and location... It is huge with so much great stuff to look at... The name of the store is Pages in Time in South Bend, Indiana if you are ever in the area, I guarantee you will love it. There was a lady there and she said that she was from Florida and could not wait to get home to tell everyone about the great scrapbook store that she had found... She knew that she was going to be in the area and looked at the stores in the back of her Papercrafts magazine and found Pages in Time advertised... I think that she was glad that she did....
Have a great evening everyone and when I get our Hawaii album done I will post some pics for all to see..... Good night!!!!

My Creative Room!!!!








Well, here are some pictures of my creative space. Almost everything in my room has come from some great garage sales. I LOVE TO GO TO GARAGE SALES.... I go every Saturday with my Mother-in-Law and we have a great time.

The Red cabinet was a gray mess but it had a great thick wooden top and it cost me all of $5.00. My husband does mobile paint and dent repair on vehicles so he has all the great paints and clear coat to make anything beautiful. The chair in the room came from a garage sale and also cost me all of $5.00. The little wooden cabinet with the 2 doors came from a garage sale and fit perfectly in the closet that I took the doors off of. That cost me all of $6.00. The tall black cabinet next to the red one came from an estate sale and ran me all of $10.00 and again my dear hubby was able to fix it up and make it look pretty too... I also found a Pampered Chef caddy at a sale and paid all of .50 for it and it works great for holding all of my pens, scissors, markers, files, tweezers anything of that nature. I found the Pioneer stereo at a sale also for all of $20.00 and it works great. I got the TV in the room for 5.00 at a sale and it works great for what I wanted it for. You can find great things at garage sales, you just have to go and look....

Not everything is from garage sales though. I asked for the 2 embellishment bins above the desk area for X-mas. They came from Menard's and they work great. The curtains came from Big Lots for all of $10.00 and the rug came from Walmart for $15.00.. We got the desk top also from Menard's when they had them on sale for 30% off all in stock counter tops and paid $25.00 for that. The desk lamp with the awesome shade came from Hobby Lobby when they had their great 50% off sale on lamps so that came home with me for $10.00.... I tried to do the room and not spend a lot of money and I think that I accomplished that and then some. You never know what I may come home with next weekend.....

Just thought I would give a peak into my creative heaven....

Have a great 4Th!!!!!!
