Organization Week has turned into Organize Every Week This week I made foam core boxes to organize my stamp drawer by using the tutorial my business partner, Lorri F wrote. I did not like making the boxes – but BOY do I love having my stamps organized in a way I can find them and [...]

Organization Week with Julie Fei-Fan Balzer – Display My Art
When I got home from my three-day weekend and got the laundry done I rushed over to read Day 5, 6 and 7 of Organization Week. I found that I had done most of the steps in the process of Day 1-4! I will qualify that statement with the fact that I had read Nat’s [...]
Organization Week with Julie Fei-Fan Balzer – Keep an Art Journal
Organization Week with Julie Fei-Fan Balzer My studio has been in utter chaos since last October. In October I dismantle much of my art room to take samples etcetera to Art Camp for Women. This year when I got home I dumped everything on my table, did my laundry, and ran off to JournalFest. When [...]
Studio Re-vamp 2011|Keep an Art Journal
I am starting a new online art journaling class with Kelly Kilmer called Revel in the Moment. I will make a separate journal for this class. On the way to making my journal I decided to reorganize my studio. Enough climbing over things and reaching around things to find a spray bottle, a drawer of paper [...]
Art on Vacation
Remember I was talking about browsing junk/secondhand/antique stores when I am away from home? Did I mention I am often on the look out for something that could be repurposed into storage or shelving? I have previously posted about my sewing machine drawers, but have you seen my old soda-pop shelves? No – well here [...]
How did We Get to June?
I didn’t exercise in May – sore foot. I didn’t blog in May, well once or twice. I didn’t go to the zoo in May. The only adventure was over by the third. I didn’t take my supplements, I didn’t enter a race (same sore foot). I didn’t go to Blogettes, I missed my seminar [...]
Studio Organization – Again
Remember I told you I gave myself incentives to organize/reorganize/spring clean my studio? And that my latest obsession is with the drawers from olde (old with an e – means really old) sewing machines? Well I’ve moved on to a higher mode – the brackets or pieces of olde sewing machines that held the drawers! [...]
Art Studio Spring Cleaning – Keep an Art Journal
I know that giving my studio a good spring cleaning and reorganization really works. I find all kinds of things that I have forgotten and each time I do it a little tweaking makes the space that much more usable. Motivation? But how to get me to get to it? Here’s what I do - [...]
Art Studio returns! Keep an Art Journal
So now my art table is tall enough to stand at without leaning, which is a very good thing. I stand a lot while working and the slight lean necessary before was killing me! However, I DO need to sit when the project gets long. All the stools, chairs and benches that worked before are [...]
Back to the drawing board – Keep an Art Journal
Can summer fun snowball? Since Mini Art Camp for Women in early August it has been non-stop fun around here. (Sheesh.) How did it get so out of control? I believe it all got out of hand when I found the map drawers on craigslist. The day before camp began. I’ve wanted the big flat [...]
