The list goes on!
One thing I've come to realise over the years ( with expanding family)
Is how much we still need space. Our own little piece of haven, be it a loft
Conversion a spare room or the garden shed, A woman has as much the need
Of a shed as any man!
What would you use yours for?
I decided this year to convert an outbuilding into my very own big girls den!
Much to the envoy of my hubby.. (Don't feel sorry for him, he has a perfectly
Good shed!).
It's nearly finished so I thought I'd share with you a few pics.
Already it is such a restful place! Painted in a chalky white
It is the perfect back drop for all my crafts and vintage finds
And is a perfect place for me to up-cycle furniture, sew,
Paint and even just hang out with the girls.
Latest project... This gorgeous vintage dresser that I am
Currently working on will live in here. It was in a bad way
Which is why I've painted it this gorgeous pastel pink
(If wood is in good condition with a beautiful grain then I never
Paint it! My fathers a carpenter you see..)
The lovely chintzy paper I've used for the back came from
B & M and cost just £4.99
I'm looking forward to doing lots of flower arranging in here
And the place will always be full of blooms..
Hmm now I just need to sneak the nespresso out of
The kitchen, perfic!
Do you have a craft room? I'd love to here about it!

ReplyDeleteHi Emma,
ReplyDeleteFab blog post! I couldn't agree more about needing space! I am lucky enough to have my own craft room, which is full of my craft supplies, vintage furniture and teacups! I love having somewhere to escape to and be creative!
