“And above all,
watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you,
because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places.
Those who don't believe in magic will never find it.”

Where Bloggers Create 2011

Hello!I'm so glad you stopped by today.
I'm joining in with Karen from My Desert Cottage for the third annual Where Bloggers Create party!!!

Not much has changed in here...


I love using shoe dividers to hold my artificial flowers and other bits & pieces.

We bought this wooden file cabinet at a yard sale for 5 dollars!


Glitter, ribbons, and beads.

I found this Kewpie at a yard sale under a pile of shoes.

This is my fruit and bones basket


Some of my jars...I have collected several more but I've been storing them in the gypsy wagon/camper


I love glass bowls, cups, and glasses.They're perfect for buttons and sequins.

This is a storage shelf for excess materials. There's a train case up here filled with rolled up felt sheets.

My yarns and some fabric fit in this shelf.

As you can see my studio is tiny!and not very fancy, but it serves it's purpose.
I don't have an inspiration or mood board, but I figure I don't need one, I just look around and feel inspired:)
I have everything within arm's reach, and if I feel like it, I can close the curtains and pretend I'm in a tent!

Thank you for stopping by and thank you to our hostess Karen!

    I love your creative space, it is huge on inspiration.. My gosh look at all that eye candy, it makes me want to create!!!!!
    I love the way you have the flowers in the shoe caddy, I have one that I keep my hubby's art stuff & glues in but the flowers sure would soften and girly it up a bit;)

  6. OMG Marfi, your studio space is just fabulous....I'm speechless and that's saying a lot...that never happens!! LOL I love, love, love it all!!

    I'm so embarrassed about my space; my studio which is a fairly large room, is an addition to the house and served as a family room, now it's all mine, mine, mine, mine.....bwa-hahahahaha!!!! Anyway, it looks like someone threw a hand grenade in there and shut the door, but I did clean and attempted some organizing back in January...but alas, it's back to it's usual mess, but I refer to it as "organized chaos!!" I know where everything is!! LOL

    Have a great weekend and again, love your pics of your little piece of heaven.

    xxoo,
    Georgina

  12. I signed up for this last year, but didn't get a notification this year. Maybe it's because my studio is in boxes at the moment. You may call your studio tiny, but I call it awesome! And you are right. Everything is within easy reach.

  21. How wonderfully put together! The colors are so vibrant, I love it all. And, I have a kitty that looks just like Baby Tuna. Her name is Emmi, we just adopted her from the pound, 4 years old and always hungry! Tuna would have been a perfect name for her. Anyway, love your room, come see me over at Lilly's lace! xo- cindy
