Studio Tour

Some reminders of our warmer sunnier days gone by! (big sigh!)

OMG I buy so many books and magazines that I should be in a 12 step program! Seriously! Next to art supplies and chocolate.......this is a fix I can't seem to shake!!

My newest edition to my art portfolio! I'm considering the name "lollipop jungle" has a juicy sound to it!

more favourite books!

OOh my favourite magazines in the world! Cloth paper scissors, Sommerset....and of course the cps Studio magazine.....which I've been buying faithfully since the first one came out and now can't find it around here!! Subscription for Christmas ...... kids are you reading this???

Here is my scrapbooking area

A quick view from the door.............

I LOVE THIS SHELF! $5 at a yard sale (it was very mistreated!) I gave it some love, pulled out 6579 staples.....seriously who does this???? Gave it several coats of paint, stuffed it with goodies.... It's happy I adopted it :)

Well this a my painting area for watercolour and acrylics....lots of natural light and space to move around....

ahhhhh the bead corner.... it's very hard to pick a favourite part since I love doing all of this! There is also a little corner for Penelope and Storm to lay down in front of the fire while I paint, glue, cut, dance.... They love my little happy place just as much as I do! I have other studio pics on Flickr and on my blog. Check them out for goodness sakes!

In From The Cold

Wowza! It's been freezing cold weather in our neck of the woods for a couple of weeks now and I'm missing the sanctuary of my studio! Since before Christmas I've had to bring in most of my beading materials as it was taking way too long to heat up the cabin and I was going through the wood pile very quickly. Despite the bit of space it takes up (just for now) it's quite comfy and I'm enjoying the fact that I can work any time the feeling strikes without worrying about the temperature.

It's Melting!

My Studio

There is only one good thing that came from all that yucky cold wet weather, and that is all the cleaning and organizing I did in my cabin/studio! There is alot more I could do, but then I'd have no time to play and that just makes me cranky! Last weekend on our yard sale excursion, I found a wooden shelf that was in need of a home and a paint job. First thing I thought of was how awesome it would be to use it to organize my papers and other scrapbooking goodies. The shelf was pretty worn and weathered (still is...but painted) and it is perfect!

Tired Of Shovelling!

This is my studio and as you can see it is SNOWING again! What's a girl to do?? My sunroom is getting a little crowded with all my art supplies and the clean freak is in conflict with the artist. I guess I'm a bit scitzo! Let's hope it all melts as fast as it came so I can get back into my happy place and have some fun.
