I have two rooms in my house that I’ve appropriated as studios: one is my sewing/knitting studio and library. The other, my computer/scrapping/art journaling space. This room – which I call Studio B – was originally designated as a craft space until I started working from home and then it became my home office. Now that I’m in protirement, I’ve repurposed Studio B.
March is generally a month when lots of people’s thoughts turn to spring and cleaning…certainly mine have and actually, since Feb 22, I’ve been in a rearranging and purging state of mind. Heaven knows I have too much stuff and it seems, that no matter how many times or how ruthless I am when decluttering , I still have too darned much… Funny, as I was reorganizing, I found an album I created in 2005 documenting a workshop on time management Kathy and I were planning. The album featured a decluttering/makeover of the then office and now Studio B. After several days of reorganizing my studios, yes, yet again, yesterday (Thursday, March 29) afternoon, I put the finishing – for awhile, at least – touches on the two studios and decided I owed myself a treat: a walk outside.
Tho’ a bit windy, the day was beautiful: bright, clear and very colorful:
Wisteria
Iris
Japanese Maple
Tulips
a tree whose name I know not but I love the richness of its deep pink blossoms...
and my absolute favorite: the dogwood
Certainly a wonderful display of color. I am so glad we’ve been treated to such an early, glorious spring and actually, I am also glad March is in it’s last few hours. Seems to me the month has been longer than usual and I’m ready for April! Have a great week and we’ll touch base again next Sat, April 6.
Cheers~
Oh the colors…how glorious! the Japanese Maple and Dogwoods are my favorites!
How about pix of reorganized Studios?
We’ve had two simultaneous reorganizations going this month: repurposing the spare bedroom into Jeff’s workroom plus we gave our entertainment center away to Brin so Jeff can build a bookcase on entire wall to fit around TV as well. I have WAY too much stuff…and Jeff has even MORE! We’re whittling away at it though. I gave mom’s shells away to a woman I had seen making shell crafts outside a restaurant. Felt good—would make mom smile.
Oops, I intended to include a photo of the studios…next week! Thx for the reminder and your encouragement. Can’t wait to see the results of your reorganization!
Cheers~
