Craft space is coming together

It’s not totally organized ,but, I am very excited that it’s not all in a large cardboard box anymore. Moving is great, unpacking- not so much

Anthropologie

if only Vancouver had an Anthropologie store!

fashion, home items, jewelery, shoes, I would live in there.

probably best on my pocketbook that we don’t have one..

bedding



bits and pieces
this would be perfect in a bathroom, on the back of the door! or if you had a large enough bathroom and family, on the wall for robes and towels. super cute.I have a spoft spot for cephalopods

dachshund door stop!

this funny owl would be perfect on those light switches that are very prominent in the room. I’d paint it though I don’t like the distressed owl look.

I would use all of these in my entrance hall coat hanger, the posts would need to be cut back though. to use a bolt to hold them in the board that has really bad hooks on now.
( I know these are knobs but seriously the one I have now is knobs and is terrible they are too small and too round these would be perfectttt.)




yes and yes.

when I was little I had regular pencil like this,I thought it was really cool, pencil crayons take it to a whole new level of cool.

kitchen
cute aprons
