Decorating daydreams . . .Fabulous Workrooms

It's no secret that I love to scour the web for decorating ideas, and certainly one room that's always on my mind is the all-important workroom. This is the room I spend a lot of time in, and most of it is fairly tense, busy, frustrating time, so I want this room to be as interesting and functional as possible. So, today's decorating daydreams are devoted to truly amazing workrooms. I'm sorry to say that I don't have credits for most of these; I've been collecting these pics for quite a while!
I love, love, love the paper crane mobile in this room. I actually tried to make one once, but couldn't get the balance right, and gave up. I've always wanted to try again . . .

How much fun is this red and turquoise color scheme? And, look how organized her fabric quarters are!


I really like these cubby hole shelves; I'm thinking of doing something similar when I move.


I wish I had more wall space to cover with inspirational art. Mine are taken up with shelving full of fabric, trim, wigs, hats and nick-nacks related to same.

Again, another inspirational backdrop. I love the grid-like layout.


Cubby holes again, but of different heights, adding visual interest. And, loving the orange and teal and brown.


This one is right up my alley. I need to get a really good, functional cutting table when I move out; I doubt I'll have abundant floor space in what will likely be a tiny studio!

Can you tell I like this color scheme? ;)


I keep promising myself to build something like this for all my many, many spools of trim. It's such a good idea . . . sigh. Add that to the project list.

So many ideas here; maybe one day I'll have an actual workshop to implement some of them. That's why these posts are daydreams . . .

Kaitlyn made an origami crane mobile earlier this school year. Maybe I can have her make you one for your birthday?!?!

If she's not going to be too busy with a million other things! I remember what life was like at that age;)

In LOVE with the earthy scheme, the mannequin and upright bolts of fabric. It's dreamy...
