~My studio~


This is my studio. I spend many of my mornings/afternoons here. Yes... it's a very cluttered room with so much stuff! Stuff like my tiny vintage sewing machine and favorite fabrics at arms length if I get inspired to create. The ironing board for that never ending item that needs pressing..A TV to listen/watch old 40s black & white movies (or CNN news) while I work. Stuff like my vintage buttons, glitters, paints, ribbons, papers, trims and so much more...My computer for eBay, Etsy, and to chat with you my fun blogger friends! A love seat for that precious "side door" friend who has just popped in to say hello. Scattered around my small cottage is another sewing machine, cupboards filed with fabrics, more buttons, lace, trims and boxes and boxes of stuff. I admit I'm just a craft junkie who's in need of a crafting fix....so this room is a must. Thanks for your time, I'm off to work on a project. ~Mary~ :-}

Pink Toe Shoes? Mary, you have PINK TOE SHOES!!!!! Oh, I love pink toe shoes. I remember my first pair, they hurt my feet so bad, but they were so beautiful. they were stiff and clunky when you tried to walk in them. I was chubby and clumsy and yet, when I got up on point, I felt every bit as beautiful as those toe shoes. Any room with pink toe shoes hanging in it has to be one of the most beautiful room in the world.
