Elegant minimalism, bright white, natural textures and rich materials make this a calming and creative space.

Have you ever looked at a photo in a magazine of an "Artist's Studio" and it is clean, neat, and organized... and you think "that is NOT a working studio!" !? I know I do. I also know that I would LIKE my studio to be clean, neat, and organized but it never lasts. I can clean, or I can create. I just can't do both at the same time. THIS is what my studio looks like this morning.

These are dark winter days in our corner (it really has been impossible to work without a light in the last week) ...but it's lovely indeed to be finally back in my favourite place... (have I mentioned how much I love being here? ;-) ) ~ ♥ ~ I don't tend to think I've been anywhere near as productive as I had planned hoped to be until I look back on a year through my photographs ...above are a just a few of my favourites... I've also really enjoyed working with my lovely friend Nancy through 2015 on the Dutch translations of my patterns which have proved to be very popular (the next available pattern on the list will hopefully be Little Yarn Dolls : Method 2 ) Putting together the doll kits was another highlight of the last year (they travelled safely to all corners of the globe!) and for those who have inquired, there will hopefully be a few batches available here during the year in between working on new patterns ...and so... I'm really looking forward to everything 2016 may bring with lots of projects on the go to share with you here on the blog (although I'm thinking I really need to show some restraint right now and not buy any more yarn...at least just for the moment...it's not easy though, is it? ;-) ) ...and I've knitted at least 2/3 of the front of my aran jumper amongst other things ...finally...wahooo!! ...I'm also hoping to open the doors here more often... ...back...very....soon... ...happy...new...week... ~ ♥ ~ P.S...are you on instagram?... ...I just may see you there soon ;-)...

I’m continually fascinated by the places where creative people live and work. These four spaces are not just the homes, but also the studios of four very talented contemporary artists. It’s lovely to see how the aesthetic of their work carries through their homes — and how they blend living and working into one beautiful space. Above: A few choice photos from the tour of St.

The ceramics studio was formerly a pergola wrapped in chicken wire, used as a dog kennel by the previous owner. Inside the new structure, a vintage Danish chair, found on eBay, provides a modern perch. The windows’ deep mullions double as display shelves.

The weekend is upon us and in this particular season, that means Saturdays=basketball. Jude is obsessed with basketball. He lives, eats, breathes, talks basketball. And the amount of basketball cards littering our home? I could wallpaper the entire living room in them. I find them in the most inconvenient of times, like when I pulled […]
