Hello Everyone and
Welcome to my Studio!
I want to start off with a Big Thank You
to our Very Gracious Hostess
Karen of My Desert Cottage!
Yay Karen!
Thank you so Much for this Wonderful Party!
I Have to tell you that my Studio is Teeny Tiny!
I have been Banished to the my Bedroom
but Shhh.. don't tell anyone..
I really Love having my Studio there!
My Mood Board is the First thing I See in the Morning.
I Love waking to my Creative Muses!
My Vintage Altered Bottles
I created with Nancy Maxwell James!
think I just might have to make some more of these!
Studio Right
My Inspiration for this Lamp came from PB,
They wanted .. Wow!
A Lot of Money
for their Lamp!
So I decided to come up with My Own.
This is Made with my Own Collection of Images,
A Tomato Cage,
Office Depot File Clips,
and A Pull Chain Lamp Kit from Home Depot.
The top is an Old Bedroom Ceiling Light
(Circa 1970's)
That I found at a Local Thrift Store.
Black Spray Paint was all it Needed!
Using my own Collection of Images
made it More Personal and Fun not to mention
How Beautiful they are Illuminated!
The Big Picture.. Well the Tiny Picture!
I Love these Old Watch Faces.
This is my Mood Board.
I Like to Have my things Out so I know what I have.
I am kind of like Dory from Finding Nemo....
Short Term Memory.
I Love Old Books....
I Love using Serving Pieces for Display.
They are Wonderful for Organizing your Collected Pieces.
Did I tell you about my
Love Affair with Buttons and Lace?!!
After Visiting most of your Blogs...
I have discovered I am not Alone! Lol!
Don't they Look Scrumptious!
Aaaa Yumm!
I started keeping a Project Box.
It just helps me to stay more Organized .
I Made this for Organizing My Collection of Jewelry.

Well this is it! Pretty Tiny isn't it!
Thank you for the Visit!
Hope you found something to inspired you!
Thank You Again Karen for being our Wonderful Hostess!

Amazing, wonderful and enchanting! Now I can see where you create all your magic! I adore every inch of it! You never cease to amaze me! I also want to know where you found those fabulous Mother of Pearl buttons, they're beautiful! I know I already have enough but there's always room for more! Thank you for sharing your studio, I love it! Come visit me!
Very lovely space! Filled with you!
Jill, your space and collection of goodies is right up my street. Love your lamp. I am thrilled to follow you.
Hello Dory...my name is Dug and I have just met you and I love you. Squirrel! Sorry...that's what my daughter says about me!
I love your room and everything in it. You can be sure I'll be copying (yes I said the "c" word) your hanging light. I love P.B.'s too...just not the price. I like the price of your version much better.
Tiny? Maybe, but you sure make up for it in imagination!
Debbie

Hi Jill,

This was such a treat Jill! So gorgeous and inspirational!
It may be tiny, but it's lovely. You have made such a beautiful space in which to create. And I love your lamp! Thank you so much for sharing it with us.
What a great space and I love the lamp!! DId you do a tutorial on it? I would love to see how it was made and try to make one!
What a gloriously inspiring space. I think I could spend hours just soaking up the nostalgia of your displays. You have done everything up so carefully and with such flair. Keep smiling and creating
Hi Jill,
Your space may be tiny but it's overflowing with inspiration and a lot of beauty. I also have an obsession with vintage buttons but especially Mother of Pearl. I really enjoyed looking at all of your stash. I'd love to have visit with me when you have a moment!
Have a wonderful day,

I have the definitive word for your space: LOVELY! Everything is just beautiful and rich and it all "goes" together--it doesn't feel like a hodgepodge of stuff--it feels very intentional and gorgeous. LOVE it.

What a beautiful creative space! Thanks for the tour.
What a lovely place to create and about it being tiny, well, you could not tell. You have such beautiful inspirational eye candy. Love the tutorial on your jewel tray - I went snooping around. Take care.

I love that hanging light with the images attached. So inspiring and romantic at the same time. Your spot looks so cosy. Like being in a womb of cave surrounded by magical things. I bet you have creative fun in this spot. *smiles* Norma
Is this heaven? I think so! Magnificent collections and artful displays, I wanted to jump right into that button bowl, and the jewels, oooh, ahhh! Thank you for sharing your creative delights!
Your creative space is amazing! I love your inspiration board and all the wonderful things you have gathered around it.
So much vintage goodness....love the spoonful of buttons!
Happy creating in your beautiful space!!
I'm enjoying visiting everyone's creative spaces...
So, inspiring.
And, I particularly love the PB inspired light and the fabulous jewlery box...wonderful!
Your space is so charming and cozy, Jill...and full of the most special goodies!
Hi Jill, you have such an amazing space. Love seeing all your wonderful treasures! Your artistic and creative space would be like Disneyland for me. Thanks so much for linking up and sharing it all at VIF, xoxo Debra

Thanks so much for sharing this and I hope you have a wonderful week (if your temps are like our's are here - please stay cool!)

What a lovely space you have! How does it feel to create in a Victorian parlor? That's exactly what comes to mind when I see your beautiful space.
Thanks you for sharing, I've enjoyed touring your studio.
Great space, Jill! I have a small area in our garage that I call my own. I love seeing all your pieces out and on display. Love the clock faces and the idea of a project box. Your inspiration board is wonderful, too!
ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT ALL! Way to much to comment on! I love all the silver, lace, your worktable, the buttons and books. You have a great flair for combining a workspace and decorating with collectibles. Again, love it all! Thanks for sharing.
Debbie
It may be small but so beautiful! Packed with so many lovely items to create with. Especially the buttons....gorgeous. I sometimes think if I was contained in a smaller space I may be more productive....not as much stuff to distract me! Cheers.
Hi Jill...Oh my, your space is just absolutely gorgeous!! You have made it into the most warm, cozy and inviting place, I would want to spend hours there!! Love, Love, Love how you have displayed all of your treasures and I Love your lamp, mood board and the box you created for your jewelry pieces!! Your space is just brimming with Inspiration & Beauty, I just adore it so much!!
Have a lovely rest of the week & weekend my friend~
Hugs,
Carol Anne
Pretty terrific! Your space is beautiful! Your organization ideas are fantastic! Thank you!
Terry
I know I am so far behind in comments. I love your bedroom studio...that is where mine is too. I like your comparison to Dory in Finding Nemo. If I don't see it I forget where I put it!
Blessings to you this Holiday Season~
Teresa in California
Wonderful! I'm glad I did find YOU!
Though the size of your space may be small, it certainly doesn't deter from the beautiful creations that come out of it. Compared to what I've seen, my stash of buttons
and lace looks small in comparison.
I'm always on the lookout, so it's continueing to grow. Thank for the tour of your lovely space.
