love those bucket chairs! i too had to give up some of my studio space for my husband when he converted from laptop to pc. it was hard, but now we craft/computer together. :)

Hey, I noticed your coffee press on the photo blog and wondered how you made coffee in it? I purchased one at a yard sale this fall with no instructions.

Ooh. I love the wall pockets! How did you attach them to the homasote? Homasote *sigh* - something no hardware store in my area has ever heard of. I must be asking for the wrong thing.

Tom Leach Roofing are the best roofers in Portland. They are fabulous. They are not inexpensive, but they will do the job right! They did our roof two years ago, it was a really big job (had to have the old roof removed down to the rafters, including the original 1906 cedar shakes). They were done and cleaned up in four days. When I had a question about the new roof, Tom himself came over to take a look the day after I called. Fabulous. I wish they did other projects too.. like replacement windows... (sigh).

h.

It looks like such a great space for the kids. Good job on the set-up. I love that bird fabric.

Love the "new" crafting area for M + M. I'm getting ready for some major spring cleaning in my studio. Thanks for the inspiration.

Hope you're enjoying the sunshine. =)

It looks completely gorgeous, as always. Like from the pages of a magazine. An inspiring space for the whole family!

oh that book!!! i have it too! i love love the illustrations in it! charles harper is a genius! it's so fun to see that you have the book...i had to search hi and lo for it online...and then ended up finding it at the middle school where i teach! too funny!!

This is what I need to do...clean up my 'craft area' so that it will no longer be the dump-anything-here-area. The bird pocket fabric is beautiful.

this is wonderful! we are in the process of making a craft space for the kiddos and i like the idea board with large pockets. and the bird fabric is to die for.

Ah... I recently gave up room on my sewing table for my 10 year old son to sew with me. He's using my old machine and while I miss some of the room with two machines on the table, the company more than makes up for the loss. :D

And thanks for sharing. We're thinking about adding a craft table to the space and this gives me loads of ideas for it.

Oh yes- shared space! I have that too.

I actually enjoy working alongside my kids while they are creating, but honestly it doesn't happen all the time or when *I* would like it to happen...Oh well.

Love their drawing area and inspiration board.

There must be something in the air. I have been on a simplifying spree since the begining of Feb, and I started with my craft space. I've tried to be smart about setting things up in each room so that everyone's needs are met (including my need for simplicity).
Love and Light,

ah yes! looks great (love the chairs!) and i am a firm believer in if you can't beat them join them, so to speak... (or at least all craft together!)

it's just perfect. i think it's so important to share creative space at home like this too. whenever i'm working on jewelry or paintings, my little guy is cutting paper all over the floor or taking out his playdough. i wouldn't have it any other way! (plus, his singing and humming is delightful to hear in the background....)

such a great little space you made there. i love the linen covering and the pockets to boot. can i pretend just for a day to be a little one and draw at that table... just for a day?? so sweet.

just perfect.

It looks great! I want my own corner so I can come and craft with you!!

What a wonderful space! And I love the peek at M&M's art-- especially those viking teeth and the hearts on the sunshine.

wow, great work station.

gotta love the wall pockets!

Love the sewing machine. Our library has a display right now showing about 20 children's sewing machines. Most smaller than that one. They are so lovely. I didn't know they had been so popular. Thanks for the links.

new kiddie area is lovely! i will be doing something like this when we {ever} get moved into the new house we are building.

sorry about the roofer. i can only imagine what kind of inconvenience that is :)

That is such a lovely little drawing nook! Enjoy!

so glad you found a solution, a beautiful one at that. now where is this free linen pile you speak of???

sososo nice. love the chairs
