my creative space ... much better + a freebie!


Voila! Much better than last week - I hope you agree! Thanks to a new bookcase from ikea and some decisive decluttering, I now have a spick and span creative space. Now to get to work ...! I want to make some little handbags for my nieces over the next week, which should be a lot of fun.

During the clean-up, I came across this vintage fabric I got ages ago on ebay. It's about one metre square and covered with racing cars and other racing stuff, and I'm giving it away. Just leave a comment and I will draw a lucky winner in Sunday night.


Have a great day! For more creative spaces and/or to join in and show us your creative space today, visit kootoyoo!

Your space look absolutely fantastic! Are you finding the organisation inspires you to be creative?

Wow... what a difference a bookcase and a few boxes makes. I'm sure you feel much better in your creative heart too!

What a difference! I love the pinboard idea above the table, I've always wanted one of these to keep my little bits of inspiration at hand. Now you just have to get busy mucking it up again with all your new projects...

I am struggling with decluttering and organisation too, and a trip to Ikea will hopefully help me as well. Your space looks great !
Have fun enjoying the clarity of mind an organised space brings!

I like your organised space. Mine is slightly dishevelled at the moment and needs some attention. Perhaps you might help?!

Thanks for the compliments - it's probably a bit too tidy at the moment! Never fear, it won't last! Having some space does make me want to get out some lovely fabric and buttons and devise projects to sew - that's the best bit of all.
P.S. Lucy - happy to help!

Holly said...

Oooh I could dream up so many things my eldest boy would love with those racing cars!

Your space looks great! And Í can't wait to see what kind of purses you are going to make for your nieces. How old are they? Do you have a pattern, or are you going to draw one yourself? I have a little girl here who wants to have a lot of different purses, so I always love to get inspired :-) Looking forward to see your purses!
