My work space has two identities. It is a mild mannered sewing space by day and a wild and crazy artist’s studio by night. Well actually it was just becoming a wild and crazy mess. Sewing tools, art supplies, fabric, paint, boxes and canvas everywhere. Nothing had a home and I finally got sick of it. Every time I got things remotely organized it would implode on itself with every new project. So I bit the bullet and took a trip to IKEA. Thank you IKEA zero percent interest. I am so delighted with my new and improved work space that I could just squeal with delight, or do a dance or something.
While I know that these before and after pictures will probably not excite you as much as the do me, I am sure you will at least be somewhat impressed with the transformation. Now I just want to work and work and work. I love it in my studio so much!
Here is the mess before I got organized with some new shelves and a wardrobe from IKEA.

And this is what it looks like now:

whoa! You did an amazing job Bets! I am either going to IKEA for the zero percent, or better yet, movng into that room. You will find me in the Svoldetended armoire.
I would have loved to help you with the visual directives. That little androgynous man is so adorable when you can’t figure out which of the zillions of allen wrenches to use.
