I’m jealous, I admit it

Yes, I am a jealous girl. Why you ask? I see photo upon photo of bright, colorful craft studios that make my mouth salivate and it punches me in the gut a little bit. Why can’t I have that too?

Like, I just love the eclectic/fancy/colorama atmosphere of Boopsie Daisy’s workspace!

The colors, paper lanterns, gingham and warmness inspire me in Jenny B Allsorts space

The girly vibe and color pink make me swoon (along with that chair!) in the Cupcakery Girl’s studio.

I love the simplicity and muted colors in Somethings Hiding Here’s studio. So clean and refreshing.

The milkglass organization in Peptogirl’s studio mixes new and vintage and I just love that.

It’s not to say that I can’t have it, I just have to make it happen. Yep, I’m one of those people you see on those shows like Clean House where people have to come in and overhaul the space. Now, now. Not always (currently my living room, kitchen, and dining room are somewhat clean), but I have yet to attack my office. It just seems soooo overwhelming to me. Always have. All the little embellishments, paper scraps, documentation, photo frames…everything makes my head spin. So you want to know what my space has going for it…do you really? I seriously can’t believe I’m showing this, but here goes:

So, there’s really not much excuse. I am renting, so I can’t paint and I think a splash of color and more permanence would inspire me to shape it up more. This room has actually become more of a catchall room than anything. Does anyone else have a room like this that they are totally embarrassed over or is is just me and my extreme sloppiness?

Until next time Swellions!
