Productive Weekend

For my mom's birthday (back in May), I offered her a weekend completely devoted to cleaning out and organizing her sewing room. A little background of this room: it used to be my sister's room when she was a baby, but then after I moved out and Denise moved into my old room, my mom got her own "lady cave". It was always meant to be a room to store and produce crafts (mostly quilting). She has a lovely quilting table that I drool over, a cabinet that was purchased but never was in the room, because there wasn't room for it when they bought it, a dresser, a shelf, and even customized closet organization. Sadly it became a dumping ground for miscellaneous projects, her school books and planners, music, UFOs, and junk with no home. It needed to be dealt with! She couldn't even use her room for its intended purpose.Can't see the floor!
A bit overwhelming
Some fun distractions

What makes cleaning fun? Wigs make cleaning fun!
We're not related (note sarcasm)
Found my MC Hammer pants from the 7th grade--they're meant to be parachute pants, but now they're just shiny pants
More distractions--are we ever going to clean that room?
Deni finally joined the fun
We did some work after all!
Holy Cow, that carpet hasn't been seen in year.
We got the cabinet out of my parents room!
