It seems like there's always a picture of my kitties to show how I feel....and this is how I'm feeling tonight. ha! After a long day of working, then running errands, then coming back to work again until 11 pm, that's what I want to do right now! I can't complain too much--my husband called me to come home and eat with him because he had made supper!!
I wanted to share some pics of the progress in my studio. Of course here's my fireplace which is waiting in its gas logs. I may try to wait it out and buy some on clearance this spring. I think my big heater in the other room will be good enough to hold me over if it means saving me a little money! These things are adding up in a hurry!!
And here is my $20 cabinet! I was so excited to find this at the thrift store! I'm thinking the shelves might be a good place to display some of my smaller paperclay pieces. I was thinking books, but I may find another place for those. It now has some cloth dolls displayed on top and quilts on the bottom shelf. I use the bottom (where the doors are) to store my copier paper, etc. and the drawers for office supplies. Its a challenge trying to combine my office and a way to display things for sale. But I want stuff for sale in every room, even the bathroom! No matter what you're doing here, you'll see something you can buy!!!
Here's the chair I slip covered. Its not perfect, but that's okay with me. I wanted it to look soft and comfortable. And Rusty definitely thinks its comfy because he sleeps on it a lot! Although its not his favorite place to sleep....you can probably already guess where that is. Its right in front of my monitor! I'm lucky right now that he is lying down. A lot of time he sits up and meows at me or takes a bath while I'm trying to see around him!
A couple of weeks ago, my nephew (Tyler) and I went thrift store shopping and we found this oil painting at Salvation Army! I knew it would look great in my office and it was only $15 so I snatched it up! There aren't too many bare spots on the walls or anywhere else in my office by now. Surely I can squeeze in a FEW more things, don't you think?
Oh- that is a beautiful cabinet. I'm looking for one for my kitchen! Great find- great price!!

Wow! Your space is really coming along- it's so nice, I LOVE the color of the walls - I have the exact color in my bedroom!! I love the pix you include of your kitties, they are so expressive of the way we feel as you say. Your furniture finds are incredible, I think I need to get out to my local thrift stores more if this is what you're finding at yours! Keep the pix coming, Best, Ani
