Listen.. Do you want to know a secret?

I can FINALLY tell!  My scrapbook room has been featured in Creating Keepsakes Creative Spaces 2011!!!  It’s a special publication bookazine FULL of beautiful, creative spaces (and mine is one of them – I know, pinch me!)

I love my space – it’s my own personal Oasis and I feel peace when I walk in the door. There is so much history (furniture and doors from loved ones) and love (aka time and service) that has gone into my room.  It is a reflection of who I am and what is important to me. 

What a thrill to welcome Creating Keepsakes (and YOU) into my room!

It’s been so hard not to share the good news with you – especially as I put all the finishing touches on it.  With every shopping trip and fabulous find and late night organizing to my husband finding the perfect fabric to recover my bench, I had to remind myself that it wasn’t my secret to share… it was the fabulous Megan Hoeppner’s and it wasn’t fair to spoil it.

Well, guess what!?  The issue is shipping TOMORROW (May 10, 2011).

    Wow, love the chest of drawers, my mom gave me a set of baby drawers way before I had children because it has lots of shallow drawers (for little baby clothes I guess), so fun to see a craft space that uses a similar piece of furniture.

    I am looking forward to seeing this magazine. I think I have a sickness for looking at craft spaces! I enjoy looking at them as much as I do crafting itself!
