I became hooked on crafting as a little girl at Vacation Bible School. At craft time they presented me with a cigar box, macaroni, glue, and gold paint. I glued that macaroni to the top of that cigar box, and painted it gold. I didn't compare my box to anybody else's - I just fell in love with MY box. I've been crafting in one way or another ever since. When I opened my Etsy shop I created half of a craft room and when we bought our new house there was space for me to have my own crafting room. It is my sanctuary- a little bit of paradise.
I recently found the vintage material at the top of these curtains and had the pink fabric - I whipped up some fun window coverings.
I purchased that little Crosley turn table and radio which only cost about $70.00. I needed something to play vinyl records and albums. Great sound.
This is a working craft room - not a decorative area. Storage is always difficult in a small bedroom. I continue to work on new ideas.
I have made many items to decorate the room as well as things I love. I continue to add items.
I am no seamstress but my little inexpensive Brother sewing machine from Wal-Mart meets all my sewing needs.
I have a small little television in my craft room which just provides background noise when I am not listening to music.
Look what a mess - when I have all of this organized I will publish a new post.
My little computer on my desk is all I need to run my shop, create my blog, and browse the internet.
Thanks everyone for reading this blog - let me know where you create - and what you create. Also I would love to hear some of your storage ideas. Have a lovely day...... Tina.
I made one of those gold macaroni cigar boxes. I thought it was the most beautiful thing in the world. I actually think I made it at VBS in Natchitoches!
ReplyDeleteThanks for reading the blog Alycia - you probably did your gold macaroni box here - it was quite the rage in the craft world for a long time.
