Collector's Notebook

Up until now my office has been the place I put things I don't want to deal with. Things like old photos, class projects from art school, old art supplies and a random Alf doll. Stuff that is hard to identify, catalogue, organize or toss. Stuff I've been avoiding dealing with for the past couple years since moving into our home.

But in order to get my office ready for full-time freelancing I've been forced to focus and clean everything out. In my desk I found some old notebooks Liz made for me, by hand. This one is a notebook that she sewed envelopes into - to house little collectibles. Genius.

Also, that top photo is a sneak peak of the office in progress. I found a huge cutting mat that is now the new surface for my desk - and you can see the color of the walls - and the top of one vintage yellow chair. More on that later!
