I really like how you incorporated the special things you've been given over the years, like the sewing basket, bag and vase from your mother, and the little blue and white button dish from your friend. It just feels so good to see things you love all around you as you work. I do finally have my own space to create, and I enjoy it so much. Have fun, Tina!Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12854211710203164265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6831964660986535542.post-69351015615582025752013-11-18T21:36:44.413-05:002013-11-18T21:36:44.413-05:00wow, looks like a great place to play around - &am...wow, looks like a great place to play around - & let that creative mind take over. i have a space ... but would enjoy adding more tidbits here & there for sure.

I love the way you have surrounded yourself with items that bring up memories or remind you of close relationships.<br /><br />In the living room, I write and have a knitting basket (so I can take my knitting downstairs in the evening. In the front bedroom, I have a sewing machine, fabric, and a set of drawers for needles, thread, etc. Downstairs, tucked away in a small room, I have my yarn stash. And, of course, in front of the TV downstairs I do my knitting in the evening. Oh, yes, in the corner of that room is my spinning wheel and fiber. Help!

Wh...I smiled the whole time I read this post Tina. What a lovely space you created and I am very proud of you for proceeding with doing something that is fun for you. I have a sewing space in our hobby room which is directly across from the space where my husband works on his hobby which is rod building. I love the space because if I have an hour or so I can just pop in and sew and don't have to take the time to set my machine and ironing board and everything up. My husband is messier than I am and it is funny because my side is very neat and organized and his side is cluttered. At least I can laugh about it. I will never be an accomplished seamstress but I enjoy sewing and that is all that matters. Just like you enjoy looking at the colors of your threads in the basket, I love looking at my fabrics and I have a bag of buttons that give me delight. When I travel out of the country I always look for interesting buttons (and rocks too by the way) and bring them home.. My husband always teases me because he says he doesn't know anyone else who would keep room in their suitcase open to bring rocks home.

My sewing area is a wreck right now...I usually straighten up between projects, but didn't this time.

I believe everyone needs a space of their own to create whatever it is they love, or simply to "be" and I'm glad you claimed yours. I do have a space that is combo writing office and art room (although right now it has too much stuff in it and I am working on the organizational scheme!). When I am doing messy art, I put things on a tray or in a basket and head to the kitchen and dining area where the table is bigger and the sink is handy! But I try hard to get everything back in its place. Right now I'm in purging mode, but this too will pass. I'm hoping to post some pix in the new year!Jeaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17482528482559445943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6831964660986535542.post-69307433287659025062013-11-18T07:25:45.002-05:002013-11-18T07:25:45.002-05:00That is a lovely space to be creative in.
