My Studio is Looking Great!

Take a look at these wonderful shelves......an entire wall filled with supplies, books and ART!
I still need to make some more Collage Boxes for a more finished look to the shelves
and the wicker baskets will be taken out once I get my ribbon shelf
that a friend is making for me, but for now this is functional.

In this picture you can see part of my 10" counter, I have storage on each end and in the middle. On both sides of the walls (picture below also) I have some shelves my son made, they are perfect for all of my paints, ink pads, glitter, powders, all the small things I use often.....they are out and easily accessible.

The curtains are not up yet because I have only one set so far, they are on back order at the store.....I will take pictures as soon as I get the rest and they are all installed.

Here is a small wheeled cabinet with large drawers that holds my paper cutters and tons of other things; along with my printer. I love this!

Here is a wonderful movable work station that is counter height which is great when I prefer to stand and work (which is a lot). Below is tons of room for machines and totes filled with tools. My ribbon shelf will go on the wall above this counter.

Here is my desk and my beautiful Mac Computer that I still have to learn how to use along the CS4 I have installed on it......I am looking forward to getting some play time on it.
I still have to put up a bulletin board or something above the desk I have not quite decided what.

Under this window will go a sewing cabinet for my sewing machine and serger, I have not been able to find one I like that will fit nicely in this space. There is a closet to the right of the picture that has storage units and shelves......the battery on my camera died or there would be a picture of the inside.......

I will take more pictures once I get things up on the walls, curtains up and such.

I am pleased at how my studio turned out, it is spacious and bright, I have lots of different work stations, tons of storage, great lighting, big windows and more!

Hope you enjoyed seeing my space!

Now to create ART!

I can't believe your new craft space! I'm so envious!

I think I could take a wall out of the middle of two rooms and still keep my loft area and be happy. Our guests and my husband wouldn't be! haha

Don't ya just love IKEA's shelving...15" deep! I have a whole wall in the guest room, at least I got part of it! :O)

Looks great. Nothing like having everything easily accessible. It makes the whole creative process much more fun and enjoyable. Right now we're building onto my studio so hubby can get other unrelated things to a separate area. I love my office though! Enjoy your new space.
