Transformation...Complete!

Welcome to my new craft studio...

Now that I have a new workshop, and a great view, it's time to get busy!  Time to get crafting!

With an area dedicated to beading, an area for planning, a spot for relaxing and some serious thinking, and my work table set up for soap and candlemaking, where does one start?  Hmmm, decisions, decisions....



Transformation...in progress (Part II)

I cannot believe it is nearly three months ago that I began the photographic journal of the transformation of our dank dungeon into a craft studio!  Where does time go?

So to continue this long and painfully drawn out story...

Day 1 ended like this...



Walls, ceiling and floor all undercoated

Come Day 2 and it's on with some colour!

Colour on the walls...

Colour on the doors...

Some colour on the frames...

And some on the floor.



By this stage we were just itching to see the completed picture.

Are we there yet?
Not quite.

Are we there yet?
Nearly...

Are we there yet?!
...

And so ended Day 2.

Day 3 of our Easter weekend was the day for a well earned rest and time for the paint to dry and harden up enough for us to come back and complete the second coats.

By the end of Day 4 we'd well and truly farewelled that forgotten, neglected room.

It was time to say 'Hello' to the new craft studio...

Mission complete!  Well almost!  What about the furniture?  What about some storage space?  What about some window coverings?

So near and yet so far!  However the day would come...soon.

At this point I'm still having a hard time believing it's the same room! 

It might not have been a quiet, relaxing Easter weekend, but it sure was worth all the hard work.
