Dana's Old Bedroom and My Studio Before : ( |
About a month ago, my daughter, Dana, suggested I move my art studio out of our little spare room and into her larger bedroom. With both girls away at college and me working from home all day, it was just more practical that I move into a larger space. I felt a little guilty about taking her childhood bedroom away for about a minute, but then jumped at the offer.
It has been a lot of work reorganizing and going through years of stuff.
My Studio After ...WoooHoo! |
This is today! The wall color is from Dunn Edwards- Newbury Port DE5881. The gallery shelves are from Ikea to display artwork, etc. I brought a very ugly stained side cabinet home from my office job and painted it white. Hubby and I put wheels on the bottom so it was real easy to move out of the way to paint the wall.
I got these sweet Martha Stewart photo boxes on sale at Michael's for $1.66 ea. What a deal!
Ikea $10 box frames |
(Whenever I think of you I smile inside) |
Next, window seat area needs work, because Tucker has worn out the fabric sitting there all day and looking out the window. I'll save that for another day!

I love your studio makeover. Great color on the walls! Very brave choice and it looks incredible. I also love the shelves to display artwork and the photobox frames...Ikea here I come! It looks great. And you are fulfilling one of my guilty pleasures--seeing other artists' studios! I never get tired of seeing them, and they always make me so excited to create!
Diana, your space looks wonderful. It is so important to have "a room of one's own!"
