little studio

In October 2012 I started renovating a little house that is now my "where this woman works".  It is where I store, sort, clean, photograph and list all of my goodies on etsy.  It is also where I create.  Everything that I was doing to make a living was consuming Ed and my living space and my dear friend Barb had a great tip and it changed everything.....

 

 The little kitchen is almost finished.  We have painted nearly every inch of this place and it is really starting to come together.  This room awaits a red painted floor.  We removed 7 layers of tile and linoleum along with a sub floor and black mold.  There was a broken dishwasher that has been put out for the trash and collected that was the culprit of the black mold.  

 Once the floor is painted a dresser will go here and hold the microwave and the mini fridge.  You have to have drinks and snacks!

 This opening is actually made to hold the fridge.  Not sure exactly what I am going to put there until a big refrigerator is purchased.  The turquoise door leads to the back yard and the little one car garage.  See my obsession with polka dots!   

This will be painted red before the end of the month.  Can't wait to get the ladders and huge shop vacs out of my studio.  I'm growing tired of stepping over everything.  It has been a true transformation.  It takes a village....my Mom, step dad, brother, neighbor Sandy and my friend Robbie have all stepped in and help me with the space.  It is such a little space I have tried over and over to photograph it and everything comes out dark and sad.  The space is anything but, dark and sad.  Can't wait to show you how this turns out once it is painted.  to be continued.....
