Birth of the Bubble

I guess a good place to start is with the birth of the Bubble with a few photos to show how it came about. All told, it took a couple of weeks or so in the making - delays caused thanks to offshore living. No joined-up shops here to nip out to for the odd DIY bits n bobs.

Apart from the whole room being our pride and joy, our favourite piece is the custom-built pull-out drawer-trays, that hold many and substantially laden boxes of precious papers. It's pure luxury being able to view each box with ease, instead of awkward lifting to access what I want - which invariably was at the bottom of the pile.

There's only a couple of misgivings, namely the climb up and down the ladder. The giggles used to hinder any loft explorations, as that final step ended up in hoots of laughter. An arm injury makes focussing necessary and am not only over the giggles, but getting fitter every day.

The other little problem is our wild weather, during which times the Bubble is out of bounds. The frequent roar of winter storms make it almost impossible to pursue such a calming hobby. Nevertheless, it's a wonderful haven in which to create and play with all things crafty. So watch this space for the arrival of some creations from the Atlantic Bubble.








Happy Crafting :)

  1. Wow. What a little gem. You should both be very proud of all your hard work. The bubble looks like an excellent place to craft. The space looks like it will be easy to see all of your equipment. I hope the weather is kind to you. Going to show my hubby the pics as my room is bursting at the seams. Debbie M.
