Studio Revamp Part 2

Nohwear Studio Well, things are definitely coming along in the studio. I'm going to have to make yet another Ikea trip to get the handy organizers I wanted to pick up. Frustratingly they were out of stock and it's not an item they sell online. The boxes I will paint the lovely teal blue of the chair and desk to help bring that color more into the space. We're awaiting the frames for the Gladiator Bicycle print and a few other prints we have, then we'll hang everything including the fun bulletin board I made using that beautiful Ikea frame. The husband also needs to spray paint the legs silver, since Ikea was out of silver legs when we originally bought the table and it seems silly to buy two more legs when we have plenty of paint around.

Nohwear StudioThe decision to start off by redoing this room was definitely the right one. It was such a wasted dump of a space that we hated working in. We'd bring all of our project components up to the living room to work creating huge messes and twice the work for ourselves. Now, we're thrilled with the space plan in here and both my husband and I have been happily tasking away back here every day. It's amazing how a space that's tended with a little love and a lot of thought and organization can transform from a place you avoid being near to a place you look forward to being in for hours. Even the cats love it.
