My new studio

My birthday present last year was the start of a little studio for me. With two kids and a smallish house (around 1,000 square feet), having my own space for whatever use I desire is a dream come true. Unfortunately, with a busy husband and a strict budget, the studio is taking a little longer to finish than planned. I have all my arts and crafts and much of my bearmaking supplies piled in boxes and tubs against the wall in one of the bedrooms. As we are getting closer and closer to getting to a usable point with the studio, it seems like it is getting harder and harder for me to be patient...the first picture is the studio last summer, the second is this spring. We have had many roadblocks, including the studio being 1" to tall for it's square footage, resulting in it getting cut down to size, literally.

Don't you just love the intro?

I decided to create this blog as a conglomeration of all the creative aspects of my life, since I enjoy making bears, but also love to sew, paint, screen print, make jewelry, sculpt... Well, it goes on and on. A clue about my personality? I NEVER get bored.
I will probably be throwing other bits and bobs of my life into the mix, too. Let's go!
