This is my worktable~cluttered, as usual....when it's clean, I can't create~ I'm totally lost! This table belonged to my husbands grandfather...I added a little
skirt around it and tucked a few paper flowers to it ~the old white pompom curtains came from the Canton flea market...I hung them like stage curtains and used old lace panels on vintage swing rods for the shelves...I can swing them open while I'm working and close them when I'm finished~
Old jewelry boxes hold tiny treasures. A lampshade is turned into a mobile, with just everything clipped on it~ I'm like a crow...I find something pretty, I bring it to my nest~
I love this picture!...I don't know why, but this young girl inspires me daily...it's kinda like she's watching over me or something~Oh and speaking of "Inspiration"....wait till you see my next post! 
I have lots of lace in stacked baskets, boxes and even more boxes... too much?
Seam binding...all in my favorite shades....
Behind this curtain....dolls, doll heads and one of those doll heads is really creepy, I KNOW! Little elves...some from childhood, some just because they wanted to come home with me...Jars on top of jars filled with everything...I'm cleaning out some and parting with a few of these things~
Jars....
and now
Drawers....
I keep things organized in all these drawers
Everything is in here~
Baby doll clothes,
Well this my little workspace, so glad you stopped by! Thank you Karen for hosting this wonderful party! I can't wait to go see all the other studios!
I keep things organized in all these drawers This one came out of a newspaper office~

Baby doll clothes,
old Christmas odds and ends....

ReplyDeleteDEAR ANN,
ReplyDeleteI DROPPED BY TO SEE YOUR SPACE AFTER I SAW ONE OF THE PINK SATURDAY GIRLS WERE TALKING ABOUT THE PLACE YOU CREATE PARTY. I AM ABOUT TO GO NUTS WITH ALL THESE FABULOUS THINGS TO SEE TODAY.
I LOVE YOUR CREATIVE SPACE. I THINK IT IS A LESSON HOW YOU CAN HAVE A STUDIO IN A SMALL PLACE. YOU HAVE SOME DRAWERS I WOULD JUST LOVE TO GO THROUGH. I LOVE YOUR IDEA WITH THE LACE CURTAINS TO CLOSE EVERYTHING AND THE LAMPSHADE WIRE YOU HANG THINGS ON. AWESOME.
THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR SPACE.
I WAS READING A FEW POSTS BACK AND SAW YOU COLLECT BUTTERPATS....I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS BUT I LOVE...LOVE THEM. IT MAKES ME SMILE WHEN I SEE THEM AND I LOVE HOW YOURS WERE DISPLAYED.
HAVE A WONDERFUL HAPPY FATHERS DAY WEEK-END.
ANGEL HUGS AND BLESSINGS
SIMPLY DEBBIE
Love the lamp shade mobile. Your little space is so cute....I need a little space like that too!! Don't all us girls??
ReplyDeleteits so dreamy!!!! I love all the laces...and all the spaces to store treasures!
ReplyDeleteI love your little space...and to think I almost threw away an old lamp shade that was torn now I'm inspired to make something out of it. Hope you have a blessed day.
ReplyDeleteJo
As they say"IT's not the size that matters"!!!
ReplyDeleteYour craft room is awesome! I have tables in the family room and am waiting for my very own craft room, no matter the size!
The newspaper drawers are sweet! It was fun to see your space.
Deb :)
Oh I love your Creative Space. Your treasures are amazing and you have inspired me with new ideas. The size of the space is simply not that important when the creator is inspiring and talented like you. WOW!!
ReplyDeleteThank you for stopping by and your kind comments. So nice to meet you and I have so enjoyed my visit to your wonderful blog.
Now I am a happy follower too!

You certainly do have lots of pretties in your nest. You've done a great job with this space and I can tell we have lots in common.
ReplyDeleteThanks for letting us get a peek of your lovely space.

I am absolutely amazed, this is a laundry room? All I can say is WOW! You have made that space so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteEEEEEEEEEK! What a delightful place. I just want to pick everything up and look at all the detail! :)
ReplyDelete~Liz
Ann,
ReplyDeleteLord, I just read the last comment I wrote. I swear I wasn't drinking! I think I typed it too fast, swooning from the beauty of it all, & forgot to spell check. LOL See what you do to me?! I had to come back & look again. Those little drawers, the ones with the stuff poking out? I want to dig in those so bad. You better not let me in your house in September. BTW, I think every good artist has at least 1 or 2 creepy things in their studio! Lisa
Amazing use of a small space! So much to see. Love every little detail. ~Robin~
ReplyDeleteYou have certainly made use of every nook and cranny and pulled it all together so that it is an inspiring space! Really charming!
ReplyDelete:)
I love your space so full of all kinds of fun things. Lampshade idea is great.
ReplyDeleteDebbie
Oh Ann, I'm so in love with your gorgeous studio! It may be small, but it's packed with so much beauty and inspiration...and it surely gets the job done, cause every thing you create is gorgeous!!! That lampshade with all the pretties hanging from it is so pretty...love, love, love. And I adore those curtain on the swing rods...how perfect; those drawers (especially the newpaper office one) are great. Oh, the baskets and boxes and more boxes of lace.....no, you can NEVER have too much lace!
ReplyDeleteThanks for inviting us into your beautiful studio...wish I could dig through your bounty of beauty!
Loads of love,
Sandra
Love! Love! Love! everything!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic space! Also love your blog name and all that you create! I'm now following your blog!
Hugs and thanks for the tour!
Somehow the smallness of it just makes it snugger and cozier. I love all the clutter and stuff. It makes me want to blow each picture up and go through everything to see just what you really have in all those places. Thanks for the fun visit. Diane
ReplyDeleteI love the creams and all the doll heads! Thanks for letting us peek around your gorgeous studio!

Alrighty Ann,
ReplyDeleteI went and measured my utility room and came up with this...
I can fit half a table, half a chair, a pair of scissors (if I put them behind my ear) and a bottle of glue (in my bra when not in use).
I am SO trying to make my creative space as beautiful as yours, but unfortunately, it will never happen ;)
Girl, I just love your space...is there room for a chair for me to come play?
Good Morning Ann,

I love your wonderful space! It has given me inspiration (like everything you do)...I lost my sunroom studio when we moved into our new home and the basement is creepy and unfinished...so a little corner of our bedroom is where I am currently working.
ReplyDeleteDear sweet Ann....what a precious wonderland!!!!! I love your creative space, your magic studio ~ such gorgeous artwork comes from this treasure box!!!

ReplyDeleteHello, dear Ann,
ReplyDeleteYour creative space is just as charming as you are, loved everything about it. When you mentioned Canton, it reminded me that I need to make a trip there as soon as the weather gets a little cooler. How is the weather there in East Texas? We are having scorching days and no rain, boo hoo. My plants and yard need some moisture. Have a delightful Friday and fun-filled weekend. Sending lots of love and hugs your way~ Vick
The little creative oasis you have built for yourself in such a small space is remarkable. I love everything about it! Thank you for the tour.
