Green As You Can Be

posted by jax1215 on May 14

Sorry about not adding to my “green” space. I have been occupied with getting my husband well. He is the builder of my green things, the force behind the great ideas I have.  His bypass surgery went well and he is on the mend. As sad as this seems, his one goal before the surgery was to have my craft studio finished, just in case.  How sad/sweet is that?  He finished it and left me a sweet note to find later. Both I treasure.

My studio is a room built in the middle of a large metal workshop. We used everything we could find to build this space. The total cost was $150. We had windows we found under our house, I had a stained glass window just sitting around. There was leftover paint, loads of cabinets and even some lumber that came with the house.  All we had to buy was some 2×4′s, some floor paint and some insulation. I still need to make curtains for the windows (free fabric I got from a samples company moving out of the area) and the moving in process will take forever. I can see I will need more space. I own too much stuff.

Right now it looks empty….just give me a little time. I’ll fill it up. I’ll post more pictures, too.

Coming soon will be some great videos we shot in April. We visit an organic farm, a family that lives off of their land (less than an acre), a community garden and Earth Day at Brasstown. I’ll let you know when the posting dates are as soon as I can.

Remember to be “as green as you can be”
