Francesca lives in my studio. You will usually find her here by the window. This little white table is where I use my Cricut machine for scrapbooking.
I like the way this wall is coming along. As I run across new estate sale finds, this will probably change and grow.
I got these four 12x12 frames at Hobby Lobby. I put a 12x12 sheet of corkboard into each frame, covered by scrapbook paper. I have put photos, embellishments and some vintage jewelry on these - one for me and hubby, and one for each of my kids. I love having these right by my table when I am working in my studio.
A great chandelier that my mom gave me for my birthday!
My husband put adjustable shelves in the closet for me. Lots of storage for my scrapbooking supplies, jewelry making supplies and other crafting needs.
These bookshelves hold our homeschooling books, as well as my crafting books, catalogs, etc. My husband made these. We still need to screw them together at the top and then add molding strips on the fronts and crown molding around the top. When that is done it will have the look of a built-in unit. I will show that to you whenever we get around to it.

Hi Shannon -
Your workroom is so lovely - I especially love the cork boards and the window on the wall. I can tell you that I am with you on the 'work in progress' sentiment...but I would be willing to bet that each and every one of these wonderful artists are always 'working' on their studios as well!
Thanks for sharing!

I love your space.....if I sat in that chair i would not be able to get up....I love how everything is so organized in the closet.
I love the process of putting together a room. The evolution is so wonderful as you find that perfect piece to go here or there. That's what makes where you are right now so exciting! Have a wonderful time with your room and thank you so much for coming to my party. You've really helped make it a success!

It's GORGEOUS, sugar!!! That chandelier??? Ask your mum where she got it. I'd loooooove to have one for my ceiling fan light. Let me know pleeeeeeease. That is simply stunning. We are getting a Hobby Lobby here in Boise and it's the first one in the state I believe. I'd never heard of it until my ebay group told me about them. Squeeeeeeal!! I like what you did with the 12 x 12" photo frames also because I have several message boards I've made, as you could see. Just lovely, chickee, LOVELY!!!
xoxo,
Connie

Shannon - I love the way your studio is coming along and all of your special touches. Looks like a great place to create! Great chandelier too. Thanks so much for stopping by!
What a beautiful studio!!!! I'd sure like to peek in all those boxes, etc. in the closet! :-)
One of my favorite things is your silver twine holder and a cell phone in the shoe, so clever! Your studio is beautiful! Thank you for sharing where you create.
Thank you so much for stopping by I enjoyed our visit.
Your studio space is so nice and I love the twine holder. The chandelier is great also--what a sweet mom.

Hi Shannon,
I love your studio, it's just my colors, all natural! You've got some really nice pieces to enjoy while being creative in your space. Really like your chandelier, it would be perfect in my studio ;)
You asked about my little "fireplace". I found it in an antique shop last year. I noticed another a couple towns over from me which have fleur de lis on the fireplace insert too. I would happily offer to run see if they still have in the musty aisles, but would cost a fortune to ship to you. I really hope you find one of your own, it would look perfect with your ambiance there.
~Tracie
Your studio is wonderful. I want a Francesca- she would be the perfect creative partner!
Your space is sooooo pretty! I love the chandelier! Love your inspiration wall!
Beautiful space! I love anything sparkly so the beautiful chandelier caught my eye :) Thank you for sharing
