Where Bloggers Create 2015!


Here is a glimpse into my studio ~
Last year I broke down our guest room and
now I have a TWO room studio.
I have lots and lots of stuff but I can't help it,
I LOVE IT!
My motto is,
"Surround yourself with what you love and you will be inspired!"

There is so...so...much more space!!
Yes, I still have a few piles and goodness gracious
I just hope I can remember where I put everything.
If you're OCD these pics may seriously test you!

I really tried to group things though.
Now that my sewing machine is in the extra room,
I've placed most all of the sewing supplies in there
except of course all of the STACKS AND STACKS
of fabric...no, I'm not moving all that.

So here are the photos I want to share with you ~
It's still not perfect but a vast improvement and
in doing this it has fired me up to create!!!

Here's a peek (just please ignore any dust you may see!)
And some of that clutter on top of the bookshelves
and black amoire will end up in my Etsy.



























Wonderful Santa created by artist and friend Becky Carney ~









My advent calendar published in Somerset magazine ~



Artwork gifts from dear friends ~



Inspiration board ~









So, wanna come over and make something pretty??!!

Karen of My Desert Cottage,
thank you so much for hosting this for all of us!!!

Thank you always for stopping by to see what I'm up to.
Happy weekend precious friends,
hugs and love,
Dawn

Judith @ Lavender Cottage said...

You have such a large area to work in which is well organized and I like everything I see. If I take anything away from your post, it is to create an inspiration board, yours is lovely.
Happy crafting, # 33.

Totally wonderful Miz Dawn! Having the extra room is just what you needed. I love the shots of one room leading into the other. The lace banner on the last post is very sweet!

Beautiful rooms to create in:) I love each and every inch of your creative space! SO many pretty things! Enjoy your day dear friend, HUGS!

Kathy @ Creative Home Expressions said...

I'll be right over, Dawn! : ) What a fantastic space you've got. I am so glad to get a peek into it, especially now with your two rooms of fun and creativity. I really like how you've split the rooms and areas up for different things. I don't blame you for not moving all your fabric. I'm sure you've got a lot more than I do and I hate when I have to reorganize or move mine.

I also like that you have task lighting set up every few feet and I'm sure that it not only helps you with the different creations you are making, but is not too harsh on the eyes either. Loved seeing your space again!

Sue Kosec said...

Thank you, Dawn, for inviting me over for a play date. If only, right?

I don't even have one room and bless you - you have two. Love everything that I saw. Oh, and by the way ... never saw any dust at all. What's your secret?

Delightful! I want to pull up a chair and read all those books.

Bleubeard and Elizabeth said...

It's obvious I'm running late to the party, but I am so glad to be here now. I can see why so many people follow you. You have an incredible studio. I also keep MOST of my fabric in another area, from my sewing machine, but mine is not next door, but in the basement. You are SO lucky to have two adjacent rooms. I am curious about the two rolling carts you have covered with the use of fabric. That intrigued me. Thanks for sharing this very romantic, vintage inspired space.

Karen Valentine said...

Oh my gosh Dawn, I had to go through the pics 3 times and I still don't feel like I got it all!! How wonderful that you have room to spread out out now!! That means room for more stuff right??? LOL! I love your studio and can just see you working away in there creating the beautiful things you make. Thank you so much for joining the party!!! I know everyone is happy you did!!!
xo,
Karen

You have created such a lovely place to create. I especially love the curtains on the shelving. It makes it charming.

I am getting so many ideas for changing my space around (though my space is much smaller) from looking at your creativity. It makes me happy just to look at your space.
