I spend 5 minutes figuring out why I came out to my studio. I like my studio clean and orderly, it gets that way every couple of years ... but I know where everything is ... except for that thing I need.

Yes! I have to have something on the T.V, but nothing too interesting to where it will distract me . I like to put on shows I've already seen, like friends, or the big bang theory.

Must have just the right movie on Netflix. Can’t be a romcom, usually a depressing or horror flick are the only types I can watch and scrap to! This, except, I love to rewatch films and tv episodes I have already seen before whilst scrapping. For me it definitely is romcoms and the like but I definitely get the whole - it must be just the right movie!

usually a glass of iced tea (or some kind of beverage, Chi tea, a Sprite or Root Beer) A romantic comedy that I have seen a 1,000 times or The Office or Friends. Then looking for what I worked on last to remind me kinda where I am at in the process.. DD who is 9 is leaving for the rest of the week to stay at grandparent's house. So hoping to use this week to get some serious time in.

I definitely have to rewatch stuff-if I’m watching something new then I focus too much on that and not enough on scrapping.

My only 2 rituals are that I need It to be absolutely quiet (no tv or music) and I always need to have a Diet Coke nearby.

not really a ritual, but I can't scrap or work in my craft room at all if I'm wearing my shoes... I think I have to be 'relaxed' in order to be creative, lol!
If I'm at a crop at a hotel, I typically take my shoes off, too, and just walk around the room in my socks.
eta: I typically like to wear my pjs, too- or at least loose-fitting yoga pants and a loose t-shirt. (typically not 'new' new clothes, either, because I ALWAYS end up wiping glue, ink, or glitter onto my shirt or my pant leg.) And even when I'm at a crop, after dinner, I take off my bra. Then I feel most comfortable, and I can scrap until 2 or 3 am, no problem!

I wear slippers, bring in a water bottle, and usually have candy too. I also watch true crime while I'm scrapping. Lately it's been Snapped.

I start off with something to drink. When the weather is cooler I’ll make a cup of tea and also bring in a big glass of water. I used to put on the 6 hour version of Pride and Prejudice but lately I’ve been listening to true crime podcasts. Can you recommend any to me?? I've listened to Serial, S-Town and Dirty John but need another one! The Trail Went Cold is a good one. It covers unsolved cases.

I have to start with a clean room. I like to listen to tv, preferably something I’ve seen before so I don’t have to watch the screen. Just last night it was “Death Comes to Pemberley” one of my favorites to scrap to. I generally clean as I go, but until my new Ikea items went in this weekend, I had so few flat surfaces to work with it was hard to keep what I need out and still have room to work. Now my cup runneth over!!!

Here’s one I didn’t realize I was doing until today.
Upon feeling satisfied with a page, I make it do a little dance before I put it away to be photographed for IG and then put in the album.
It’s not done until dances.

i can't really think of anything...sometimes i listen to music or a podcast, sometimes i don't. i always have diet pepsi with me, but mostly because my scrappy space is very small and can get quite hot with my two ott lites going. if i'm home, i'm generally in pj's, so that's not really a scrappy thing. pretty much the only thing i do consistently is stand to scrap and also stare at the page and dither around trying to figure out what to do next
