Here's a look at my cleaned up art studio, along with my "helpers". While my oldest is at school, these two little ones like to play together while I work...at least for a little while.
I'm excited to announce that I'm back in business! I was tired of making excuses for not working on my stained glass. My "baby" is almost 18 months old now. I definitely had a LONG break. I was starting to go a little stir crazy not having a creative outlet. So a couple of weeks ago I got so fed up that I tore into my art room, which still had unpacked moving boxes, and whipped it in to shape. I re-listed a big portion of my jewelry in my Etsy shop, and started making new pieces too. It feels so good to be doing what I love again! It is truly a balancing act with the kids. I have to squeeze in work time between meals, diaper changes, snuggles, naps, and all my other mommy duties. I don't get as much done as I would like, but that's to be expected. My kids have to come first! Someday I dream of having uninterrupted work time. But until then, I'll take what I can get, while also enjoying the hugs and kisses from little helpers. :)
