We thought we’d take a break from the daily grind and show off some of our design teams workspaces. We hope that you might be inspired by them and find some useful storage and display tips.
Hello and welcome to Miss Wally's place. Come in and take a look around. Leeann and family made a tree change in August 2010. Leeann is a very lucky lady to have a creative space in her brand new home. You will notice that Leeann is a bit of a neat freak and things do have their place.
Leeann was a lucky duck to score this cabinet from a friend who moved. It makes a great storage unit and displaying unit at the same time. Leeann totally loves the pattern paper racks and wouldn't have it any other way.
Her work station is a large L shape. There are also file draws built in so there's plenty of work space and plenty of stations for all sorts of creativeness.
At the moment Leeann is using this space for all her scrapping. But she would prefer to stand. She is waiting on her island work bench to arrive. As you can see all supplies are in arm's reach!
The rest of the work station. Leeann loves that she now can also have here sewing machine set up all the time. Thanks for taking a look around and I hope that Leeann has given you a few ideas to help you decide on space and storage solutions.
Leeann has built in shelves to the ceiling. That is one of the best things in this room as this gives Leeann space and also a place to stash all those creations along with all those lolly jars filled with embellishments! Leeann also stores some of her mediums up here so that the kids can't touch. All other mediums and paints are kept in the file draws under the bench!
Leeann re-vamped this rusty old muffin tray. She gave it a light sand all over then used a matt spray paint and just filled each muffin ring with assorted buttons.
Leeann loves having her embellishment where she can see them. Leeann had a heap of old canvas frames and decide to revamp them. With the help of her DH Leeann took charge of the power tools. Measuring Cutting Sanding Painting and Nailing. Now all Leeann has to do is reach up and grab her favorite embellishments to finish of her creations.
As you can see here Leeann has used old food tins and has covered the outside with pattern papers. The inside has been cleaned and then sealed with a clear sealer. She has all her tags.stickers and banners etc stored in a 7 gypsies wooden draw. Leeann also loves glass bowls and finds these at the thrift stores all the time. They are her embellishment bowls at her finger tips.
