my new white floors

Today was a day of major construction ending in my dream, white floors and a new huge cabinet to house my printer, hide all the details of life and give me twice the counter space I had before. It is still in the works and I have no photos. I could show you the floor, but the old beige industrial rug photographed so well that you would never think it needed replacing. This kinda looks the same, but is a world different. My last move in my studio, I will die with white stained floors, you can't imagine how great they blend with the twenty year old David custom huge drawers and everything else I demanded. I keep spinning around to take it in. Amazing, perfect.

My painter is coming in the morning to paint the primed new base and repaint the old base moulding. Everything never looks right when something new is added. I am beside myself with happiness. Pictures don't quite work. Twenty old beige carpet looks about the same in a photo as new white floors. I will work on this. I am going do dream sweat dreams of the studio I never had. I hope I actually dream of painting out here. Something that has rarely happened.

  1. Gail, I'm sure this new addition to your studio will help you on your journey of healing and happiness. When everything feels "just right" our minds are free to create and dream of new horizons. Happy painting, sewing, beading, knitting studio!

  2. Can't wait to see it...since we saw everything separately at IKEA it'll be great to see how it all comes together! There's nothing like a calming nurturing space to create in - and a few changes can make the world of difference!

    Enjoy!
