Last fall my husband and 2 sons renovated an old shed in our backyard ....just for me. The room is 16' x 26' with 2 lofts (for storage) on either side of room. I painted the walls a shade lighter than daffadils and the trim white. The space got totally rewired, insulated, new floor, new lights, etc. Believe it or not, almost all of the furniture got dragged out of the house or barn (leftovers from the kids rooms, parents, etc.). The TV (good only for movies, not hooked up to cable) is there because my husband got a plasma. I did buy a dropped leaf table from a resale shop (opens 5'x5'). I reupholster furniture as a hobby, crochet afghans (frenzied sometimes) and now quilt.
I love fabrics. Most fabric I buy on ebay (esp upholstery fabrics), some at shops. I was spread out over 3 rooms upstairs and reupholstered furniture in the living room. Now my upstairs has lovely guest rooms again and I reclaimed my living room. I love this space...so peaceful, so inviting, etc. I'm so grateful that my men did this for me, so that I could have my own wonderful retreat. I have lots of pics. |
awesome, i wish i had a sewing place like that!
|
Very nice. Happy for you!

What a knock out area...I am so envious.
What are the dates for the retreat? You are going to have such fun in that space. Well if I can't have your room, I'll take your stash! |
Wow, you are a lucky girl. I would love to have that kind of space!!!! You're right, it does look very inviting and peaceful. Love it :thumbup:

Very nice "woman cave" for sewing and retreating in. Happy for you too. Looks to me like the only think lacking is a few WIPs and the mess they make. :) Hope you enjoy your new space.

Awesome! How much fun you must have there!!
|

WOW! have Fun!

What a lovely place! You have done a great job and I think your skeins of yarn are displayed so beautiful. It was a lot of work-I'm sure - but now to enjoy! Thanks for sharing.
|
Wow! You have so much storage and it's all used up! Love the stashes.
|
Good for you. Enjoy your new room.
|
Awesome Space, thanks for sharing it with us!

Congradulations on your new space! I enjoyed your pictures. My DH is fixing me a room in the basement but it will not be ready for six months. I am collecting ideas. I love your lofts!!
|
How wonderful! :thumbup: Great job! :thumbup: :thumbup: It's so cool!
|
Just gotta say, "That is about the best little slice of heaven I've ever seen." You have everything! If Barbie was a quilter, her studio would look like yours.
|
How special to have a room for yourself. You did a beautiful job making it "your" space. I am green with envy.
|
That is just wonderful. It's so big and you have so much space. I'm jealous!!!
|
Holy cannoli! What a wonderful room. Everything is so neat and organized it's incredible. If I had that room I'd never come out! Enjoy every minute of it.
|
awesome.
|
Wow - congratulations
|
Wow! Fantastic, you certainly must feel and see the difference. My family would never see me if I had that as my work room! :thumbup:

We will be remodeling out garage soon and that is where my sewing space will be...I can't wait! But you have so many windows to sit and look outside! Nice! |
fabulous!! enjoy all your creative quiet time in there :-)
|
I love it...what a beautifully cozy place to create!!!

Love all the natural light! Also noticed your wonderful yarn collection - I assume you are a knitter also? Thanks for sharing your photos - I enjoyed them.
|
That is soooo beautiful!! What a wonderful family you have to do this for you. A retreat all your own....
And I notice that you have a china cabinet exactly like mine. Exactly. Mine belonged to my MIL, painted a 1930's shade of green, but I refinished it many years ago. congrats on your sewing room! |
Awsome lucky girl!
|
Love it!!!!!!! What a stash!!!

What a fantastic studio you have. I am :hunf: green with envy. If I had a studio like that my husband would have to drag me out of it to come back to the house. :lol: :lol: :lol:
