Timmie Storage

Morning folks...it was great while it lasted....Summer that is...2 days of blistering temperatures but now it's back to dull and chilly...where else on the planet can the temperature plummet by ten degrees or more in just one day...the outdoor paint studio is closed and The Furry Boy and his Mum are back in the cubbyhole.
The Timmie Storage boxes are finished...a bit of a marathon....definitely one of those "I've started so I'll finish" jobs...could have been doing with a bigger paintbrush but The Furry Boy refused point blank to rent out his tail so I just had to soldier on with what I had.
I kept the decoration and embellishing fairly simple because they will be stacked on top of each other...
and have pride of place on the shelf reserved for "All Things Holtziness"
these little cubbyholes are perfect for storing all the Idea-ology bits and bobs....
and I've saved all the packaging so that I can have a go at this fabulous recycling technique by the mega talented Hels Sheridan featured in this month's Craft Stamper....Captivating Capsules...
but I'm in danger of suffering from the paint everything in sight syndrome...that uncontrollable urge to paint anything that doesn't move so perhaps it's time to wash out the paintbrush and hang up my Picasso hat for the time being.  WORK has now jumped to the top of the crafty list of things to do and it's time to put on my thinking cap and come up with some ideas for my Altered Art Class at Simply Create on the 25th using this pile of goodies....
who says that work can't be FUN...catch up with you all tomorrow...
