space

Having your own space/room to call your own is really essential. No kids, pets or hubby allowed!! you need to be able to make a mess, take out all of your supplies and not worry about having to clean up afterwards. No worries that you’ll get remnants of dinner on your creations. And a private space away from judging eyes, where you can create without an audience.

So I have studio. A dedicated room in the house that’s mine and only mine. It’s completely separate from our living space. I can be as messy as I want and leave things set up. Problem is, it becomes a dumping ground and a crafting area for my daughter over the summer months. She is prolific and I need to tackle the stacks of her creations. Project number one is to clear the clutter and reclaim the space!

I love going in there, it’s like another realm all together, so quiet and “distant” from my everyday life. I always feeling a sense of calming when I enter...but I have difficulty getting myself in there! I procrastinate like crazy!! Hmmm..... what if my coffee maker was in there, then I’d HAVE to go in at least once a day!!! Now that’s creative thinking!
