You may have heard me talk about the studio my boyfriend Chris has been renovating for me since August ... for the past five months I've been waiting as patiently as I am capable of for it to be complete. It turns out we just needed a little nudge in the form of a birthday to get things done enough to move in- which we did on Sunday afternoon! So here I am on my 42nd birthday, sitting in my gorgeous new studio!! We aren't quite done yet - the track lighting project has just started, a new work station is in the works and we still need to order a couple of cabinets from Ikea. The chair on the right will get a new lease on life with the textured black fabric below and Chris and I are going to collaborate on a cool coffee table design I have in mind! The exterior is going to be resided and everything should be ready for public unveiling by our Soulstice Celebration in June! How blessed am I to have such a beautiful, inspiring place to work? And how fortunate am I to have a man in my life with such fabulous skills??? (Thanks, darlin'... best birthday gift EVER!)
We scored that window at The ReStore for a mere 50 bucks! Oh how I love turning a bargain into something beautiful. Speaking of beautiful, I have plans for the glass on that door but I'm not telling yet : )
I could not resist this fabric when I stumbled upon it. It's so perfect for this space!
This isn't a birthday gift but rather the Christmas gift from my sister. I've been meaning to share for the past few weeks and figured now is as good a time as any! How cute is that? It's Kate's design, made by the lovely artisans at The Vintage Pearl. It was my favorite Christmas gift this year and brought ears to my eyes when I opened it : )
Are you ready for this? Here are some before shots of the room you see above. No really! It's hard to believe a crooked old shack had this beautiful room in its future! I still can't believe it's the same place!
