Where Bloggers Create Blog Party II

{{  Welcome to my studio  }}

Since I live in a small one bedroom apartment and never used my dining room, I decided to turn it into my studio.

  I went to Ikea and walked around for a while and this is what I came up with.

It was just what I needed to keep all my supplies neatly stashed away.  Of course it doesn't always look this way…especially when I am creating.  The blue wall on the right is where my living room starts and my TV is.

Since my studio and my living room are all one space, I wanted it to look nice and be functional too.  Next to my studio is my kitchen.  I have my collection of paper dolls hanging along the wall in between.

I don't really like plastic so I have collected lots of jars to store things in.

These trunks are in my Living room.  They hold fabric & yarn.

Vintage Seaside Swap

A while back I gave you a peek of what I made for the Vintage Seaside Swap at Gypsy Mermaid.  This is what I sent my my partner Sarah ~ who was also the hostess.

I used a wooden cigar box and put some bathing beauties inside.

{{Girls Just Wanna have Fun}}

On Memorial Day Tina and I got together in her studio and let our creative muses free.  Inspired by the Marie we saw at Mermaid Mercantile we gathered supplies and let the creative juices flow.
