Crafting nook
I think part of the reason that I’m feeling more creative and inspired in this new year is because of this awesome space that I’ve carved out for myself in our new house. Fortunately for me, I’m able to have my own crafting room. The space that was available to me in this house for such a purpose exceeded my expectations, and it sat empty and white-walled for quite awhile until I could decide how to paint, arrange, and decorate the room.
I wavered on what color to paint the walls and then finally followed my first (and best!) instinct and went with a shade of green. I’m a girl who loves green. Why try to convince myself otherwise by painting the one room in the house that is completely mine some other color?! Exactly. So, green it is.
I repurposed some furniture from our old house, bought two new pieces for cheap at Big Lots, and landed an awesome old, red toolbox at an antique store. I really couldn’t be happier with how it turned out.
So, here are a few photos in case you need a little inspiration of your own these days. I’m even sharing a glimpse of my table as I work on a page in Adele’s album. Just being in this room getse my creative juices flowing!
