It’s not a pretty site atm The ceiling has been stripped of wallpaper (yuck!) and the walls have been white washed now, gonna need another coat!

Next week, we will be painting the walls it’s new colour! Some enquiring minds would like to know what colour it will be but my lips are sealed lol  You’ll just have to wait for the big reveal And I’ll give you a clue…

it’s not going to be pink !

Yes this is new territory folks, no more pink walls. It was a tough decision but I am very excited for this new era!

While all this DIY is going on I have relocated to our dining room table which is ok. Can’t wait to be back in my studio though.

I’m tinkering away at more new ideas for the shop and challenging myself with some more realistic drawing…

It was so much fun to lose myself in this Saturday afternoon whilst watching The Masters Snooker semi final.

Ok that’s all folk, I’ll be back soon with more new goodies.

Blessings

This is what my studio looked like before I decided I needed a change!

and now it looks like….

Not too pretty atm lol!

I’ve started de-cluttering although you totally cannot tell by these photos but believe me I have sorted and given away lot’s of craft supplies I just don’t use anymore which was good.

I’ve boxed up all my paintings and other bits n bobs I’m keeping. Now it’s phase two of de-clutter…

I need to find two smaller tables at the charity shop to make over and Hubby is making me a little drawer unit from an old teak sideboard.

I’ve been happily pinning away, finding ideas for what I like and you can follow me here.

Still struggling on the colour, I can see it in my mind but do you think I can match it to any Dulux or Crown paint hmm no! It wouldn’t be so hard if the colour charts were the actual colour of the paint but they aren’t and when you look online they aren’t the same either. How are you supposed to choose!!!

Anyway, this room doesn’t need much work thankfully as it was the first room we did when we moved in 4 years ago (of course ).

So this weekend we will be working on the ceiling and woodwork, then in a couple of weeks time I will be getting the paint for the walls. Hopefully by then I will have decided!

I’ll post update pics next week

In the meantime I have finished my first cardigan woohoo! So excited..

Still working on two others, it’s been so much fun I can’t wait to wear the other two when they are done.

I’m also still working on some new characters to show you soon, so watch this space.
