My Happy Place

When I think about going to my "happy place"....this is it:

My sewing room! It's basically done, although I have a few decorating ideas in my head I would still like to try to liven up the walls a little.....as though fluorescent green isn't lively enough :)

This is the main wall, with my serger, sewing machine, and cutting table.
Here is some of my "decorating"...some SEW letters that I mod podged.
My sewing machine! Nothing special, but I like it.
My sewing machine has it's own little quilt...complete with pockets for all my must haves while sewing.
My window and ironing corner. I have my "To Do" list and "Wish List" on my magnet board...they are very long.
The curtains were made from fabric I found in my husband's grandma's old scary cellar. She gave it to me...all 10 yards of it...and I LOVE IT!!!
My closet! Lots of fabric...
....and more fabric!!!!
Another view of the closet.
My IKEA shelves and of course I need some tunes while I work.
Okay, I admit...maybe I've gone too far. I just think it's fun to have everything match the decor.
The fan!
Well, thanks for letting me show you around my room...come again!!

It's very cute!! I loved all the pictures so I could really get a feel for the room. You've done a great job!

Melanni said...

Even your closet is green! This is probably the most awesome sewing/craft room I've seen...I thought I was lucky when I had an unfinished room in my basement all to myself-maybe I need to jazz it up a little!

Crystal said...
