CrEaTiVe MeSs!



CREATIVE MESS IS BETTER THAN IDLE NEATNESS!
Well, that's at least what my friend Jeanne says......and I absolutely believe her!
This was the small space I had to create in. It looks more unorganized than it really was. My biggest problems were: not enough lighting, not enough table space and supplies were stored in all sorts of containers.....even in different rooms!
OUT OF SIGHT, OUT OF MIND!
Well, MC (my hubby) convinced me to take over the guest room, which was actually my Mom's room when she visited. Unfortunately, she only comes a few times a year.
Soooooooooooooooo,
I'm turning it into a studio for me! Wahoo! I have been working on it for weeks and I'm trying to make sure that everything has it's place, it's labeled and it's withing reach. I am hoping it is going to be finished by this weekend. I haven't made anything new in so long and I have the itch!
I need to be productive and SOON!
I will be posting pictures of my new studio as soon as it's done. It's not going to be as fancy as some of the studios in Where Women Create, BUT it will be MINE OL' MINE!
If you haven't checked out Where Women Create (Inspiring Work Spaces by Extraordinary Women) by Jo Packham, you should definitely get a copy or check out the website.

In previous issues, my wonderful and inspiring friend, Jen O'Connor (Earth Angels Toys) shows off her Secret Lab of treasures and artwork from her Earth Angels. A couple Earth Angels include painter extraordinaire Jennifer Lanne and the magnificent Dara DiMagno.

Stay tuned for Part II of the Chicken Coop
and
The Completion of the Studio
