I was hanging out at Rose Petals and Rust, and got dreaming of having my own little cottage, like the one she is building in her yard. Unfortunately for me, I have a tiny yard and being in Calgary, Alberta...it's much too cold for having an outdoor playplace...so I have to settle for the dreary basement or the spare bedroom.
This is sort of how organized I'd like it, like a little store (check out the rest of that room here).
This closet space is quite appealing too. Check out Karen Russell's blog for more on her incredible perfect scrap space.
One of these index card holders would rock too, imagine the possibilities?!
I picked the spare bedroom.... It's slightly bigger than the walk in closet, it's not at all like the dungeoun of a basement, and it does have a window, BONUS!
So far, it looks like an office
and not a great place for inspiration or creations, however, I am bound to make it work. I've started by moving stuff around a bit, and removing the huge sliding closet doors our of my way. Hopefully it's a start, I will recreate this space into something I love to work in. I think my family is getting mighty tired of eating meals off the coffee table, or fighting for a spot to eat with my growing pile of projects on the dinign room table. I have to figure out how to combine both spaces into a small room, so far I've only got about 1/2 of my stuff, and I'm still trying to place things where they will work...
obviously I will move that from the window!Wish me luck. in the meantime, check out this lovely little thrift store find, $1.50!!
Wondering what I should use it for? It is bigger than the average train case, but not as big as a suitcase either. It is a lovely little find!
Cheers,
Viviana
