Studio Tour

Finally, I’m here to show you the new studio. I’ve been enjoying it so very much! Let’s take a look around the room.This shot shows were the work gets done. The buffet makes a great standing work station. I have my clunky tools in the cabinets below and all the drawers are filled up as well. Of course the postal box is packed full of supplies and tools right within my reach.The closet is packed full!The other side of the room has a wonderful old drawer set that holds so much stuff inside and on top!This little table is filled with all sorts of goodies.I love love love this dress form that I found at an auction for $1Another shot of the postal box.This corner holds all my cutters and printers.I have a thing for enamel ware!Behind the door is the perfect place for my stamps. I made this shelf myself! I was quite proud of that accomplishment.Muffin tins are great for organizing!Love these old pieces. I purchased the string at an antique shop. The ink holder and old gum rack came from Simply Bungalow. It’s the perfect size for my inks.I never dreamed I’d have a space like this. I used to have a desk in the corner of the unfinished part of the basement next to the washer and dryer. This is my retreat!

Simply Bungalow Open House. . .Simply Amazing!

This weekend I was privileged to have my pieces at Simply Bungalow’s open house for the holidays. Even better, I got to hang out there all day Saturday and help. I always say it is my “happy place” and this was no exception. The gals out did themselves! It was wonderful!!Everyone who entered under those curly willows had a treat in store for them!The upstairs was done up in beautiful blues, whites, silver, and gold.Besides my cards , I made ornaments, paper trees, and this and that.And of course some tags.I had such fun finding things to do with old sweaters.Thanks to all the customers who bought my stuff. It is a special feeling to know something I made is making a home a little more merry! Now it’s time to restock!
