My studio has been "under construction" for so long now, I can't remember when I started.
What I do know is that it will never be done. I don't want it to be. If it is to be a space to call my own, then it must change with my whims. I'm a fickle gal. One day I love something and the next I'm over it. This is why I can never ever get a tattoo. What a fiasco that would be.
So here it is, as it is today. A little cleaner than usual because well, I knew you'd be looking.
oh my.
ReplyDeletethis is just a little piece of heaven inside four walls of robin's egg blue.
what is that paint color called? i must have it in the new house.
I love your studio. It's such a serene colour. You do beautiful work. Kim :)

Beautiful space!! LOVE The colors!
ReplyDeleteOh, I simply love you space. It is beautiful, soothing and just a like a little gem. Thanks for the tour.
ReplyDeleteyour space is so dang gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI loved everything! Thanks for sharing. Susan
ReplyDeleteOh MY. I just love it. The color on the walls is perfect, I love the light and the sewing table, I love the poster on the closet door, and your paper wreath hanging in the corner. It's amazing April. I can't imagine having a space like that. Oh how the creativity would flow!
ReplyDeleteVery fresh~ Love the wall colour~ A very pretty space with lots of room to dream~
ReplyDeletethis is adorable. so wish I could come plop on your floor, play with the babies and drink a cup of joe while you worked away, creating treasures galore.
ReplyDeleteI, too, love the color. I am in the process of painting my craft room area, and this gave me lots of inspiration...maybe someday my space will look as neat and serene! (At least I can dream!)
ReplyDeleteI am mesmerized. Truly..Not just with this post but I've already bopped around the site and visited your etsy and I will come back and I've bookmarked you and would follow you if I could find it, but I am almost through all 450 plus studios. I started at the ends and worked toward the middle. I am tired and knees are cramping and I will come back another day refreshed.......
ReplyDeleteWhew! ( she takes a breath)

I just have one innocent question, how many things did you have to put away for this photo shoot? I see all of the things you create? Could you possibly have that organized of a studio? I am curious about your storage situation. I imagine you have figured out an ingenuis way of putting everything in it's place. You do everything else so well. Please, for the little guy, say you hid a few things. Yours respectfully, Melissa
ReplyDeleteOh, and I haven't told you this time how cool you are.
SUCH a great creative space! I love your style!
ReplyDeleteyour studio is beautiful! love that patch of sun shinning in on the floor, how lovely, my studio is so cold:( And that color on the walls is fantastic!
ReplyDeleteI think even I could be creative in that space! Love the color, the light, the composition--wait, I think your studio is a work of art in, and of, itself! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteBest,

I, too, along with the others, would love to know what the wall color is. It is the perfect blue!! Thanks!
ReplyDeletebrittany.turco@verizon.net
I try to find out the name and make of the color and post it here tomorrow or the next day.
ReplyDeleteOh and P.S.
ReplyDeleteMelissa- See those closet doors? Behind them lurks fabric, paint, paper, adhesives, feathers, stamps, tools, inks, ribbon, ribbon, ribbon, books, beads, art pads, thread, rulers, brushes, punches, etc. etc. etc.
It's busting at the gills. That's why I keep those doors closed.
Your studio is gorgeous and serene, breathtaking actually. What a beautiful space to be creative in.
ReplyDeleteAll I could say is "WOW....."
ReplyDeleteSo much beauty and creative energy flowing about...
I feel at peace just looking at it.
What cheerful, happy colors!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful creative space!
ReplyDeleteI adore your storage solutions. You have inspired me to work on my own crafting paradise.
this splendid creation needs to be in "Where Women Create"!!
ReplyDeleteUm, I forgot to mention this--doesn't that Kokeshi doll belong to Amelie? = )
ReplyDeleteBest,

I WANT that crystal and pink flower brooch!!! And the artwork on the back of the door is amazing. Any chance you could share the source? It reminds me of the poem "The Owl and the Pussycat." I loved it as a child and always wanted to own a runcible spoon. Still do, if the truth is known!

Your creative space is dreamy and beautiful and oh so feminine--I love it!
ReplyDeleteApril, it was fun to see your creative space!
ReplyDeleteHi April! You are a gal after my own heart with your clean and organized space (at least for the pictures..hee,hee,hee.) So wonderful to meet you and thanks for the tour!

ReplyDeleteI'm sure I would never come out~
ReplyDeleteI adore your work space. It's so airy and happy. What an inspiring place to create in. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI am moving in! Like a breath of fresh air!
ReplyDeleteCan you please tell me who did the portrait on the wall? I love it!
ReplyDeleteuhm, a lot clean.
ReplyDeleteand spare.
I want my studio to be so...what's the description? Well, relaxing. But will I be able to create without an explosion of things around me. Or is that hindering me?
I have many of the same books. haven't used the Wool Pets book yet, but thought I absolutely had to have it to get started right away...four months ago! Wait, five!
Maybe it's still waiting because my studio is not clean.
You had me with that chair beside your door in the first picture. Wish I had room for a nice chair like that! Thanks so much for inviting us to visit.
ReplyDeleteClean, fresh, and inspiring. Your studio is beautiful!!
ReplyDeleteLove your studio - it has a peaceful, clean feel to it. You have done a lovely job. Love the metal letters at the top of the wall.
ReplyDeleteLove your studio with all its creative objects of art! So glad that this studio tour brought me to your blog. I have subscribed and look forward to reading more about your wonderful family and art creations! If you have time (ha), please stop by my blog for a visit!

ReplyDeleteLove seeing the close-up photos. Your jewelry is just gorgeous and I'm intrigued by the hanging/chandelier with all the paper pieces (butterflies, maybe?).
I can see how you get your inspriation with your cute kiddos and fun place to create!
