studio progress


I saw this post and I thought I could join in the fun, at least for this week.
My creative space is getting an upgrade in this house....no more sharing with the laundry room. Although I was fine with that, I am thrilled that my creative space could now be called a studio. It still sounds a little weird to me, but it makes me feel more official. :)
It will actually be a studio/office. I get 7/8 of the room. My husband gets the remaining 1/8. (I'm sad to say that I am not joking.) I spent most of the day unpacking and organizing. It was so enjoyable. I have miles to go before I sleep.
You can tell that I am nowhere near settled because the sewing machine isn't set up yet. I had better get on that soon, or I will get all twitchy.
Also read about this, and think that I just may join in that fun, too.

  2. I am so excited for you! Isn't it fun to "play" and organize all your craft supplies? The 7/8 things goes in my craft room too, but I don't feel too bad. He has an entire garage stall full of his stuff. :) Good luck with your organizing!

    Visiting via the randomizer. It is so great you will have a studio. I had a studio once, then we moved into a much smaller house, and I don't have any space to do crafting or painting. I sometimes cross stitch, but took up blogging a few month back and now I don't do much of anything.

  4. I can't believe I've been away from reading your blog for almost a week now! And look what's happening. I can't believe you have a studio (or at least seven eighths of one)! You totally deserve it, and I can't wait to see it all in order. Knowing you, it will look fabulous. Enjoy!

    I LOVE unpacking boxes in a new house!!! It's about the only time the stuff is tidy and where is should be...

    Show us the place when it's finished, please!

  6. Studio's are great. I have about 11/12 of the studio, the other part is the computers. I planned the layout that way. :) Hubby loves having his computer in there because we get to spend evenings in the same room conversing. The studio has become a very special family area of the house. Enjoy your space, hope the unpacking doesn't take too much time from being creative!

  8. Was that on your "must have" list for the new house? It certainly was when we bought this house.
    I'm joining naboplomo too. It won't be hard, since I post just about every day anyway.

  9. Yay for having your own studio space! :) I share a studio/office with my husband too, although he gets more like 1/4 of the room:)

    So far I love it (and I'm eyeing your Juki) and can't wait to see the grand unveiling! I love your colors... so warm and cozy. Mmm... delicious! I have a love/hate with unpacking - I agree with what Monica said (that felt funny for me to write). I too have a hard time with saying "studio" and slip into the word office. Maybe one day when I have a free standing studio and can say "studio". Ahh. One day.

    Congrats on your new space (and your other big, big, big, big news!!!!) xo - Monica
