It's Finally Studio Time......

Trouble has Past

Photos are Finally Up.....


I have been able to upload all My Studio Photos.....

Thanks for Waiting

I sure hope it is worth it~

I Love my little old Studio ~ I live in an Old Upper Flat
and the Dinning Room [Studio]
is the Center of my Apartment, so all the rooms are off my Creative Place
(not to mention that I have Supplies in every room)

I also have a Studio on a Tight Budget ~
Most things in My Studio were either Free or Close to it....

including my 2 sewing machines (the portable is pictured - Free)
My Other - 1940's was also free (not in photos)

All My Furniture ~ Shelving ~ Cupboards
were given to me, Yard Sales or Free Curb Side Treasures....

Alittle Soap & Water, a Bit of Paint

Now sit back & EnJoy




this great cabinet was a Yard Sale find $12.00

Little white china cabinet was My Mom's
when she was 5 - 81 years old now
My Grands play with it whenever there over

  1. Don't you just HATE when stuff doesn't work! I spend half of my life fighting with "things" that never work for me. I'm sorry for you because I KNOW that feeling well!!

    Take care, Sue

  7. Being on the bottom of the list made me come visit you. I was not disappointed to know that time will bring me back. Good Luck and do not give up. Come visit me on Etsy or at my blog and enjoy the party anyway. Jan

  8. Sorry to hear about the technology challenge. I had to comment when I heard your music. If you have a chance to visit my blog scroll down to the very last picture of my art room and you'll see why. One of my favorite songs! Good luck with the camera.

  9. I will definitely be back...no worries :)

    happy day!

  10. And here I came back!
    Now I have a couple questions...does your printer have a place to put the camera chip? And is it connected to your computer?
    OR does your computer have a place for your chip?

    Why do I ask? Because I NEVER use the cord to download - why when I have two places I can put the camera chip in and have another "drive" open up on my computer.

    Good luck!

  13. That's so funny- I started visiting blogs starting from the beginning, and then decided that I should show some sparkly love to the one's at the end! We'll be back... (spoken with an Arnold voice)
    Sparkly Hugs,

  14. This is how life goes... it's supposed to be a joke I'm sure of it... so I'll be back when the new camera arrives or the cord or whatever you need and in the mean time... dance sing and laugh and show life who's boss!

  21. I'm back and it's worth the wait! You have a real eye for the treasures and I love it when people "rescue" the treasures and give them a new life. There is something about working at an old table and thinking about all the conversations carried on there and meals served... I'm rambling! Thank you for inviting me back and for sharing your space with us.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Wow. Worth the wait. How do you find such great furniture? Good job. And thank you for having supplies in every room - makes me feel better. However you store yours way better than I. But I am going thru all these websites looking for ideas and your photos are loaded with them. Thanks and sorry your computer didn't have a chip holder, but the cable works so thats all you need.

  23. I'm back! Thanks for stopping by....you must always get to the curb before me! I never find that neat stuff and I would die for all the room you have!!

  43. Cheryl, Since I'm still making the rounds on the studio tour, I had to peek in on this post after hugging on your bear for a bit! I'm with you on JoAnnA's artwork being so wonderful....oh you have a great piece!! I love your nose for the hunt...all the great buys and free pieces you've accumulated are awesome. I could spend hours in your place digging through the jars and taking in your magnificent collection of this and that...Xo, sue

  52. I was so much enjoying your studio photos and then nearly fell off my chair when I saw the Santa picture. I have the exact same one and it hung in my studio until just a few months ago when I moved it into the laundry room!! I felt right at home when I saw that. Thanks so much for the tour!
