It didn’t get painted, but it did get a pretty decent makeover. 💕

I reorganized, but now I don’t remember where I put everything. 💕

It didn’t get very minimalist, but it did get a thorough clearing out and decluttering  💕

I didn’t take before photos ..why didn’t I take any before photos?!? (Mostly because I’m lame, but I guess there have been a few scattered throughout the blog posts over the years.)

I don’t miss the window view from my desk or being blinded by the morning sun or being on display at night, but I do bump my head on the slope a little more often. 💕

It’s called ‘the art room’ 99.5% of the time, because studio sounds too official for my unofficialness. 💕

let me show you

It started out in prairie, pretty, but not quite the right color.

Let’s try gentian violet, oh I like this better and it matches the little bag I sewed.

Still missing something, let’s add the funny little brooch Lex made me from one of my favorite childhood stickers,

yeah, that’s exactly what it needed. ♡ You should come closer,

no closer, now you can really see the beautiful stitches. (Buy the way this Merino/llama/silk/linen blend is rustic and lovely and a complete crochet dream.)

If you come even closer, I’ll show you  my funny little brooch, it smelled of soap once upon a time when my collection was new, a time when scratch n’ sniff stickers were the reward for a job well done and I was totally obsessed. (This one in particular is a mello smello :)

Finished, but now you’re a little too close, if you would, please back up a bit.
