My Creative space...


 This is my creative space, it's a reclaimed office desk that my lovely husband painted for me years ago when we were living in Perth. It's where the magic happens.


Behind all the stuff is my inspiration board, it looks rather drab to the untrained eye but the few things on it speak volumes to me. Lovely prints from 74 lime lane, my Bronze Medallion and my mum's id for when she worked at air services Australia... it's the best picture i have of her. Behind her is my 'best mum ever' badge the kids gave me last mothers day.  All these things make me feel special and that helps me create.


I claimed these shelves from my daughter today ( she's getting new furniture) to neaten up my desk.


Under the desk is 3 plastic tubs, one full of yarn and the other 2 fabric. I did a clean out today and donated a bag of fabric and a bag of yarn to pre school,. You know how your tastes change and get a bit more fussy about what you really like. I'm there.

So that's my actual  creative space all nice and clean for now...

    Haha Posie, you know it! I have a cushion for such an occasion so I don't end up looking like honeycomb. x
