Welcome to my studio!
I have been so excited to show you the changes I've made.
If you remember from previous years,
there was a big brass bed in the middle of the room.
Now, the big brass bed is downstairs and I have room for a table.
I kept the sewing counter in front of the window...
I can watch the birds in the summer and the snow in the winter!
I found the perfect place to hang my
Mothers Day gift from my sweet daughters.
My buttons and thread have moved here for easy access.
My Mom's custom built sewing cabinets have been moved here to the studio.
I love all the new storage.
Vintage luggage and wooden crates provide even more places to tuck away supplies and projects.
My seat at my desk is the bench from mom's bedroom vanity dresser.
Wooden cigar boxes, vintage books, baskets, my grandma's hats...
all provide creative inspiration.
The fabulous little table (from Ikea) has two drop leaves to create a large work surface...
plus there are three storage drawers on each side.
I can have just one or both leaves up, depending on the size of my project.
My helper cat likes the table, too.
Thanks for visiting my studio.
Please leave a comment and I will draw a name on August 16th.
The winner will receive one of my handmade Infinity Scarves.
A special thank you to Karen, from My Desert Cottage,
for organizing this blog party.

Take care,

Hello Natalie.....I love your studio space...so glad I stopped in to visit. I almost purchased that same IKEA table in white....but they didn't have it in stock when I went...and so I didn't.....
I think it looks amazing in your space...and it looks like your room is big enough to keep the table opened all the time!
thanks for sharing your space...hope you'll come by to peek at my little corner of the world.

You have a lovely craft studio. I also have a feline helper keeping an a close, sometimes very close,.eye on what I am doing.
Thank you for the look around your room.
I love your room, Natalie! I love your sewing machine in front of the window. How wonderful it must be to look up and see the views no matter what the season. Love your furniture, too! That table you got is great. Perfect that it folds up or down depending on what you are working on. Thanks for sharing your creative space!
Great space! The two tone furniture is wonderful and I love the fold out table in the middle of the room. Fab place to play. Thank you for sharing.
Your craft room looks great!!!!!
That room is beautiful. How large is it?
Your space is so lovely with the window desk that you can use. I always stitched in my kitchen so I could see outside too. Gorgeous storage pieces. And you know that HUGE expanse of clean table is just begging for the next big project. Thanks for sharing, keep smiling and creating
Nice to be here Natalie.
You have such a soft and warm environment in which to create. Love all your supplies so beautifully organized and that wonderful fold out table to work is is amazing.
Lots of inspiration here and thanks for sharing!
Enjoy your tour - I am!

Hi Natalie,
Great job on your studio-I can't wait to stop by and see it. Now you just have to find time to stay home and use it...:o)
Can't wait to see what wonderful things you get inspired to create!
Deb
OMGoodness, I've been away too long. Now that's a nice work room and I love the wall color and the two tone on the dresser and armoir. Kitty looks good in there too :)
Hugs~Carol
Such a pretty room! And I love that you've filled it with so many family mementos~
thank you for sharing your space with us ~
Hi Natalie,
Love your big space for crafting and sewing. Isn't it great to have a big space for working?
Natalie,
What a lovely space you have. It looks so organized, I wish I could say the same for my own space! I love that table you were able to get from Ikea. I just recently bought a sewing machine and that would be the perfect table for it, I will have to see if I can find it.
I have two kitties as well and enjoyed seeing your babies in the post. I plan to check out your Etsy shop next. I always enjoy seeing what people make as well as their studio space. I am fascinated with the fact that you live in SD as it is one of those states I simply do not know much about but have always been interested in.
Thank you so much for sharing your space with all of us. I enjoyed seeing it and got some great ideas to boot. I am now following your blog and look forward to seeing what you post next.
Have a wonderful weekend,
Maureen
Hi Natalie, I'm a new follower! I would love to have a room like that, very jealous! Thanks so much for sharing.
Would love to be entered into your giveaway, your scarves are beautiful! Please stop by and visit sometime, great meeting new friends:)
I'm woefully late getting to my WBC visits, Natalie, but I'm so glad I stopped by! Your space is beautiful...how you must love that big table and lots of room to move around. Like your artistic shots of the room too, and absolutely love the Mother's Day gift from your girls...:)
