This is how it has been for a while and I am going to be giving it a little makeover in a month or so, but this is what it is for now.
Click on the pictures to make them bigger.
My spot is in the back half of our family room....
The couch is the divider. It faces a coffee table and a big screen T.V.
The walls are actually a nice sage green. They look more robins egg than they really are.
It is my office also.
Aragorn (Lord of the Rings) keeps me company, sigh.....
And cheerful friends near by.
I love vintage books.
Next to my computer is a inspiration board.
I tack up anything that sparks my imagination.
My pink box is always handy
More supply storage
You can NEVER have too much Mod Podge or too many whatchamahickies!
My kitchen sink is right behind it.
That opening used to be my kitchen window before we did the additions.
Now I have NO windows in my kitchen.
That is why I had to have white cupboards.
I love using muffin tins to sort out my dodads.
Here are some characters living around my Studio.
Benny TRYING to be as cute as Lucky!
Benny TRYING to be as cute as Lucky!
I sculpted her with Fimo and a repurposed Barbie.
I shaved her hair off and put the Fimo right over all of her except her bendy arms.
It was really fun!
Gandalf was Holly's first fired clay sculpture.

I love your studio! Love it! I want it~! :) Thanks for posting all the pics - especially Aragorn :) - if I had my own computer, I would have C.S. Lewis or Aslan, or maybe Robert Downey Jr......so many choices!
ok. I am officially embarrased!! Your art room is soooo organized, I need to take some tips from you! Thanks for stopping by to visit! B;rssings, Janna
What a bright and cheerful crafting space. I love it. You are very organized and great storage ideas. I have to rethink some of my storage.
Hugs!

Love it Lilysue! Thanks for showing us. It's so fun to look at all the supplies and storage ideas! ♥ Oh and yes, you gotta have some kitty's in the studio! ☺
I set up my scrapbooking station in the family room the same way you did with yours- with the couch as the divider. But then I have half of the guest room as my other craft place and half of the dinning room... Crafting is taking over! But nobody minds. ☺
Completely delightful! Thanks dear for sharing and blessings.
Love your Art Studio. It's so neat, cute and colorful! Your kitties are so cute too! Have a great weekend!
LillySue,
I love your little area! It's so bright and cheery. My favorite are the hanging baskets with ribbon. Thanks for sharing!

I love this party!
Hello LillySue!
Wow girl, you have a wonderful space!!! I love all of the cabinet and counter top space...and the windows let in so much natural light {sigh}
I enjoyed my visit so much that I had to scroll down and read more posts...we have so much in common!
Yep, I'm a motorhead...I have 2 Corvettes and a dragster!
Thanks to Karen for bringing us together...I'll be back soon!
everything vintage
"Hey!" I love your studio!! I thinks it's fun too, to see all the ways you store and organize... And I'm seeing some similar ideas that I have used too!.. The hanging produce baskets, the spice racks and canning jars, etc. I wish I could have joined in on this, but my little studio is a little TOO small I think. I have a large walk-in closet that I've organized nicely, but it would be too cramped and too close to take any decent pictures of. Still I'm happy to have it, and don't know what I'd do without it! In the meantime, I'm not done looking at yours! I'm betting there are new storage and set-up ideas in yours that I'd still like to try!
Oh my goodness! You are too cute and your space is so organized. I love it! Thanks for visiting my space too! Have a colorful day! Isn't this fun!!!

I love your Studio, my friend. Thank you so much for sharing with us all! Beautiful!

Blessings to you this very day.
Love, Rebecca @AGP
Creativity abounds in that studio of yours! It's so pretty and cheerful, you couldn't help but be inspired! I love that moon in your window so much! I don't know, I think I might get pretty distracted having Aragorn looking at me with those dreamy eyes of his....
I your space it sweet, organized and full of life.
What a great room! So much space! I love this!

Very Nice

Your room is so bright and fun! I love it! I, too, use a muffin tin to sort embellies after I'm done creating and before I can actually put the stuff away! I love the colored pails to hold tools and such. Such a fun room! I'm glad I stopped by!
What a wonderful cheerful and happy place to be! Lots of great storage and so organized. Great place!
Cathy ♥
Terrific and a very nice way to use muffin tins. Such a great idea, which I will incorporate today. Thanks!
Hi! Loved seeing your studio. You are one creatively organized person! Your blog is very creative as well!
Lynn @ blueskies.blogspot.com
Oh, be still my beating heart! You have Aragorn as your screen saver? We are most DEFINITELY kindred spirits. :) And I adore your apothecary supply jars! It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance at this lovely event -- please feel free to stop by. As an admirer of Tolkien myself, much of my studio has an old world / Medieval flair.
Enjoy the party!
Warm Wishes,
Natasha
