A Gleeful Studio


One of my summer projects has been to redecorate my studio space. And although it is far from being where I want it to be, I have at least half done. Yup, you guessed it only the half I took the picture of.   When I made this room into my studio it was very utility room looking. I furnished it with fold up brown tables and plastic bins.  Looking back I have no idea what I was thinking. Well I assume I wasn’t thinking. Or at least not creatively. I actually spent money on my brown tables and plastic bins! Where did my creativity and the resourcefulness go when I was planning the space? It became a place I hated to be. It felt like it was a blaring objection of who I am as a person and an artist. My studio is being redone with used and repurposed items and is now a place that inspires me. It is bringing together my tow loves of vintage and color. I actually look forward to going in here now. That is important since I now spend most of my day in here. It also serves as a representation of how far my journey has taken me. I feel that I have reawakened my senses and I will no longer allow blah items in my life. Now.. to work on the other half so I can actually take a full picture of my space and share it.  But until then I pledge to banish the blah! 

Love the artwork in my studio?

  2. This space is every bit as cute as I expected it to be! It's very pretty and inviting. You've done a great job with it, and I can't wait to see the rest of it.

  3. I love having a nice space to do my work. I organized and cleaned and even made space for my kiddos to keep busy just a few weeks ago.

  4. I have a spot where my daughter can create as well! That spot will be shown in the next series of photos. I think having a spot for children to create is so important in passing down what we love so much!

  5. Nice and neat! I have too much "stuff " for mine to get close to neat!

  6. Oh I have a whole wall of storage in there too. I have way too much stuff. But one thing that helps is to have one spot for all of the storage and one area that you try and keep clean and inspiring.
