When one job becomes DOZENS

Ever notice how one job leads to another until things are completely out of control? That's what happened to me 2 weeks  ago, when I decided to Spring Clean the studio. It all began innocently enough; until I decided that the antique kitchen cupboard housing many art supplies and chocolate/beeswax molds would be more useful in the Edwardian style bathroom. So I remove every single item and dragged the cupboard to the loo. 

And refilled with toiletries.

 Okay, so now, where do I put all those art supplies and molds?
Well, I'll just empty and exchange the current dresser in bathroom and drag IT to the studio.

  The drawers held a lot of supplies, but I was still left with a stack of Chocolate molds to contend with.

  Eyeing the stair landing with the little green cupboard, I thought, Ideal! I will place them  in the green cupboard which is posing as a doll hospital...

  but then where will I put all my broken doll parts? Okay, just stuff em in a basket.

 That's settled.
But I still have a dozen or more molds.... hmmmm.

 I think I really need some shelves in the studio. JAMES!!!!! 

Now, how can we put up shelves when that blasted pine armoire is in the way... I will just have to move the Armoire to the guest room.

 Dang, it won't fit in the guest room unless I completely rearrange the furniture IN the GUEST ROOM... after all, it is a very small, tight room.
Everything has to fit like a puzzle.

  Well, that is much nicer and cleaner.

James built me shelves that reach within 15" of the 10 foot ceiling, but they needed a table to sit upon. Hence, I must move the very long, old printers table, to support the shelves.
.
That gave me more than enough room for the remaining molds. 

.

I'll need another chair in here; let's get the old secretary chair out of the barn, sand it, stain it, oil the gears and replace the wheels? Thanks again James!

 

Now, where will I put my sewing machine which WAS sitting on the pine table?  I know, I'll just take that little night stand out of the guest room, and move it to the studio, after all, it doesn't fit in the guest room anymore , what with the pine armoire taking up half a wall.

Good grief!
 And that's not the half of it. I won't even mention all the sorting ,sifting, shining, dusting,re-arranging and "boxing for the Goodwill" that went on.
A job that was to take 2 days, took 12.

 And all because of a little Spring Cleaning.
