where I create--this valentine’s day…

when my husband asked what I wanted for vday this year….this was it. he helped me create my new craft room in our great room.   he never blinked an eye, just made it happen—I so love that about him:)

 

the traditional sofa, chairs, tables, big tv, just wasn’t how I used the great room.  I  was continually dragging projects to this room, and the craft room was slowly becoming a catch all. 

 

first, he built a 6’6” farm styled table-(which will serve as a dining table, too) and replaced the ceiling fan with a chandelier.

this cabinet hold books, my ribbons, florals, my silhouette, and die cutter.

   

I saw a cabinet at home goods with a tin fleur de lis on the front of it.  I already had a fleur de lis, so, he built this cabinet. it has a hinged door, and holds my sewing machine. 

****if you have a dress form you’d like to share---on march 11th, carol at polka dot closet is having her 2nd annual dress form ball—-I gave harlow an updated look for the ball.

I showed you this french buffet earlier, now, it’s white and has new old handles, and a couple wood appliques on the doors.  it holds my painting, sewing, and paper crafts supplies.

this room makes me so happy!

happy valentine’s, everyone!
