You did a great job! I need to redo my space since I've been in a new location this past year. Now that I am over my cancer and free of it I am beginning to feel more like myself, minus the hair.

Every surface had something on it. Then I got the news that we were going to have guests and had to do something about it. I took everything out and did just as you did. It looked so much better and calmer for me. I'm in the process of going through all that stuff and doing as you did, Jenny. I'm much more at peace and the company enjoyed the room.Angie in SoCalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01689281551068732574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5738183327129723042.post-52574739493179056052019-05-24T07:17:41.146+10:002019-05-24T07:17:41.146+10:00It looks amazing, and I think it's because of ...It looks amazing, and I think it's because of all the white. Curtains with a Lecien kind of print would be pretty and maybe you can find sheets like that. I like the white, too, though. Really, I need to take everything out of my house and put it on the front lawn, and not bring *anything* back in. LOL Well, maybe the antique pie safe, and my bed, but nothing else. Just start over from scratch and only bring in things I love. Highly unlikely, though. =)Susan https://www.blogger.com/profile/09159163720029661287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5738183327129723042.post-39648826117569283812019-05-20T18:04:09.871+10:002019-05-20T18:04:09.871+10:00What an amazing room!

For now the chairs I have in there are fine. <br />About the 3M hangers...cannot be used in our extreme climate. We tried them at one rental home and the extreme tropical heat and humidity changes the structure of the glue. When removing the items and 3M hangers we lost half the wall which required an expensive replaster before we handed back the keys. We simply will not use them again.

So much eye candy! About the only thing that I'd change would be the chair at your sewing machine. A nice cushy one with wheels would be easier on your body, plus you wouldn't have to get up every time you needed to cut or press something, just swivel to cut and roll over a bit to press. Of course, you do have to get up on occasion as sitting for hours on end isn't good. As for driving nails into the walls, a good alternative is the Command hangers by 3M that stick to the wall but can be removed without causing damage. They work great. Enjoy your space. I for one have greatly enjoyed the photos you've shared and am inspired to get with the program and do something similar in my own space. Take care!Cindy A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12287409144628532055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5738183327129723042.post-11956730390020793522019-05-20T06:56:38.594+10:002019-05-20T06:56:38.594+10:00Tienes una habitación de costura bellísima y muy o...Tienes una habitación de costura bellísima y muy ordenada ,te felicito .<br />Besos.Montsehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17284047358679354556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5738183327129723042.post-44520086119260618092019-05-20T01:33:49.385+10:002019-05-20T01:33:49.385+10:00Quel bel endroit pour travailler et pour rêver bon...Quel bel endroit pour travailler et pour rêver bon dimanche Geneviève de FranceGeneGribouille03http://genegribouille03.canalblog.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5738183327129723042.post-83986400343191608472019-05-20T01:32:02.250+10:002019-05-20T01:32:02.250+10:00Dear Jenny, Your system is the same one my organi...Dear Jenny, Your system is the same one my organizer used while going through my house. As we had room in our garage she would load things up on a dolly and then take them to the garage. Then she would bring in items one at a time. They were usually boxes full of things. We would go through the boxes in the comfort of the inside and then she would go out to get another box. Since I had clutter to work through also it took a while. This last week she showed up to go through the garage. I was able to discard quite a bit. Now I am trying to figure out what storage system I want in the garage so that we will be able to go through it again and put things up. Your sewing, office, work room looks just lovely. The first thing that I noticed in the pictures were the quilts hanging on the wall and thought, Jenny is now able to hammer nails into the walls wherever she chooses. That has to be liberating.TerriSuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00161769399124744018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5738183327129723042.post-41046144006325448912019-05-19T21:22:36.611+10:002019-05-19T21:22:36.611+10:00How peaceful and pretty your sewing room is.

I do agree about using sheets as curtains - they already have a rod pocket, lol!!! My favorite thing to use for curtains! You've inspired me to change up my own space - of course, I tend to do that weekly, lol. But my walls need a good fix, I keep forgetting I can hang things in here. The rest of the house has plaster walls, really hard to get a nail in, you'd better know what you're putting where before you do, lol!!! But the sewing room has some kind of sound proofing wall, easy to get a nail in and when you pull it out, you can't see a hole. Perfect for me.<br />Your studio is just as gorgeous as you are, dear girl.Alliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06877277586697593998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5738183327129723042.post-32160363320809954712019-05-18T22:49:08.178+10:002019-05-18T22:49:08.178+10:00The room looks so cozy and full of inspiration.
