Welcome to my office. I've spent some time getting it all cleaned up for the Blog Party going on today. I just recently painted this room (Devine~Ale) and redecorated it. It has more color than other rooms in my home and some floral added here and there. The color scheme all started with the desk and it's awesome blue color. Here is where I do all my blogging, paying bills and some of my crafting. I also craft at the dining room table and I have a "junk" storage room in the basement that my duaghter and I use for some things, but you do not want to see pictures of it right now because it's a mess! Anyway, I hope you enjoy these pics and also I'll share with you some of the things I've been making to sell at a couple shows I'm doing in August. Be sure to stop by Karen's blog for the list of everyone participating in the party. Enjoy! xoxo K.
Magnet board with a tin ceiling tile frame and some of the magnets I've made.
Here are a few cards I'm selling. I really like how the ones with buttons turned out.
A couple journals my daughter, Nichole has made. She gave the one that has "Faded Charm" on it for me for Mother's Day~so cute.
And the last two show the clocks the girls made for each of their rooms. The first is Brenna's and her room just recently got painted brown with lots of pink. She's nine. And the second one is Nichole's for her blue room which she had been wanting for a long time. She's eleven. Both their rooms turned out great and I'll be sharing some pics of them at another time.
I know one thing, you do not have to look far to find your creative side. Your ideas just plain out amaze me, and your "creative" space is no different. I am always in awe of the ways you use things and they always look wonderful. I am so enjoying looking at all of your past posts. My brain is on overload. You make me want to redo everything . Thanks so much for all the inspiration.

FIrst thing that jumps at you is the wonderful dreamy colors!!! They all go so well together. I love the idea of the lampshade with no fabric over the light! How cute is that! And how awesome is it that you have creative daughters too! Very fun. Tell them both they did a fab job on their clocks!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!!!

Oooooh, come visit mine also........
Tell me please, how does this color take light at night. It seems like it would almost feel like a single candle lit in a dark room... very cozy if you will. I love your room and the old world feel it's giving off.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic color combination you used for your space! That desk is amazing and the wall color you selected compliments it perfectly! I adore all of your blue vintage pottery pieces too.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tour!

What a beautiful color scheme! It is so calming. I love your furniture pieces, and the title of your blog. Thank you for letting us into your space. (Your girls are about the same age as mine, one likes pink, one like blue and green. . .)
ReplyDeleteJUST BEAUTIFUL!

ReplyDeleteJust a note to say how much I enjoy your blog. Such lovely pics! I must look at a sample of the Devine color you used .... it seems so warm and might just be the shade I am looking for. It is a nice paint to use .... we have two other of her paints in our upstairs ...
Have a great weekend!

Really nice! I love the way everything is worn and simple. You edit really well. I need to do more of that. I also like the scale of your things. I would love to live in a room like this.
ReplyDeleteI also loved the lampshade. Great idea.

Luv the yellows and blues together and the magnet board is great!! Thanks for sharing. Connie
ReplyDeleteYour creative space is gorgeous, I adore it! And I knew immediately you were in the northwest because of your trees! We are hoping to move somewhere wonderful like that one day...take care!
ReplyDeleteOh, gosh, this is gorgeous! I would never want to leave that room, and that would be good, because I might get my work done! This is a great mix of colors - they truly compliment each other, and it's a beautiful variation of the traditional blue and yellow!
ReplyDeleteFANTASTIC! I really love the colors you picked.

ReplyDeleteThank you for having me over and showing me your wonderful creative studio. I enjoyed it very much I especially love the architectural elements you brought in. Loved it
Blessings

Your room is gorgeous! I love the colors you chose - the blue on the desk is yummy - and the floral couch looks so inviting. Wonderful!
ReplyDeleteWell done! You did such a fantastic job of pulling the French blue and gold together. I really love it.
ReplyDeleteThe butter color and the Robin's egg blue just looks so yummy together. Lovely studio.
ReplyDeletethis color combo is one of my absolute favorites! Love your architectural salvage too! Thanks for sharing!

I am a little slow getting to all of the great creative spaces but i am glad I finally made it to yours. I love the colors in your studio and all of your vintage pieces. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteOops!! I am a little late!! I do like your creative space!! It has a European quality and I think that has to do with those pretty muted color choices and all of your old vintagy treasures. I think your little couch is fabulous~if you don't feel creative, just sit down with a cup of tea and daydream!! ;-)
ReplyDeleteLove the clocks your girls made. It is so nice that they are creative also, but more importantly, you have that bond and can spend more time together!!
xoxo

The gold color goes perfectly with the blue. I have about that same color in my kitchen, and in my office/craft room. The gold really lifts my spirits when it's dreary. Looks beautiful with your little floral sofa!
ReplyDeleteDebra
What a FANTASTIC room!!! What a delight so sit and look at all your fascinating decor - love the color!
ReplyDeleteStill trying to get through everyone's spaces. Phew! What a beautiful room, and I can see why you would be inspired by that desk, what a gorgeous color. That lamp is great with the shade frame...very clever. Thank you for sharing.
