I'm in a little bit of an hysterical tizzy at the moment.  I'm a traveling lady these days.  I just got back from Australia, almost immediately headed off to New York City, and now I'm off to Cleveland to tape the first season of Make It Artsy TV.  Thus, my home is a disaster zone.  But I took a few photos and I thought I'd share the creative chaos with you!  Enjoy!

  • I love all of the creativity and color. So visually stimulating. Where did you purchase your marker bins? If that is choas….it looks pretty organized to me! Safe travels. I do not know how you keep it all straight with traveling so much and having to think of clothes and art materials.

  • Where in Cleveland will you be filming? I didn’t know that there was creative “anything” happening here. Really enjoy your posts. My “son” is from Brisbane. He enjoyed your graffiti photos…said he knows right where you were. Great fun.

  • It always amuses me when people show their “messy” homes.I see a little disorder, but if this is what you call messy, you are a neatnik. Me? I’m the mistress of messy! I probably won’t show my messes. At the moment my den looks like a hoarders room.
    Your home is lovely and definitely looks like an artist lives there.
