Welcome to where you’ll find me most days . . . my studio. Filled with all of my favorite things, this special room never fails to make me smile. Come on in!
Alongside my worktable and cottage gallery wall, a shabby wooden ladder showcases four vintage tablecloths. They are but a small portion of my textile collection; a few others are neatly folded nearby in an old metal shopping basket.
My studio is where I work on a variety of creative pursuits. One of my latest projects: lace garlands made from vintage crocheted doilies. So pretty!
To me, vintage + made from wood + shaped like a teapot = irresistible. Hence my collection of handmade soap powder dispensers and teapot-shaped ring holders.
The collections continue: picnic tins and world globes, some of which are for sale in my Etsy shop HERE and HERE.
I love to find fun ways to store and display supplies. Small drawers from a vintage doll dresser corral thread that belonged to my mom. And a Harlequin sugar bowl sans lid now holds my pin cushion.
Needless to say, the centerpiece of my studio is the whimsical 1950’s worktable — truly perfect for a former tearoom owner.
So, are you smiling yet? 😍

Connect with me on Instagram and Facebook. I’d love to hear from you!
What a whimsicle space you have, I absolutely love it! You and I could NOT go thrift shopping together, since our tastes are very similar which is one of the reasons I've followed your blog for a long time. Thanks for sharing and for inspiring me to create a space for myself.
