This amazing sewing room is as beautiful as it is functional!  You’ve seen dreamy spaces on here before, but this one is DREAMY!  Olabelhe has one of the prettiest workspaces I’ve ever seen.  It’s partly because of the colors, the light, the pretty decorative touches, the stacked fabric organized by color…oh my, I love that look!

You can visit the Olabethe Shop full of pretty dresses and patterns.   It’s very inspiring and this is where they’re all created!

Here’s a bit more of this dreamy sewing room…

You didn’t think that was all the fabric in this sewing room, did you?  Well, there’s more, much more!

I wish I could throw a crafty party in this beautiful space!  It would be a blast creating anything at all, or just sipping a cup of coffee and being surrounded by beautiful craft supplies!

Hop over to Olabelhe to see the rest of this sewing studio…you will be captivated by all the pretty photos!

Maybe this space can inspire you to create an amazing little nook or craft room for yourself.  I’m sure you can find an idea or two here that would be perfect for you!

What’s your favorite part?  Is it the stacks and stacks of fabric?

Here’s a bit of workspace inspiration for you this weekend…in black & white.  These are some seriously creative spaces and I’m sure you can find an idea or two to use in your own workspace.  Black and white decor is bold, crisp and so far from ordinary.

This workspace was a regular closet…not any longer!  Grab some chalkboard paint and turn a closet into something to talk about.  Wow!

I’m sure you could gather some friends and have fun in this creative space.  The wall is crazy cool!

This industrial space is outstanding with high ceilings and all that natural light.  I love a pop of color like this yellow chair.  I want that to be my spot!

Have a small space to work with?  This awesome desk can make any space beautiful!

A corner desk…love it!

This wall of photos and storage boxes is just perfect.  It’s creative and organized!

I hope you found a bit of workspace inspiration in these lovely black & white rooms.

Do you have an area in your house that’s black & white?  I’d love to hear about it!

Happy weekend!

Sometimes it’s best to start the week with a little inspiration.  You know, something pretty to help you get off on the right foot for a busy week ahead full of not-so-inspiring tasks.  No need to bring out you to-do list and add to it…just enjoy the photos of  this beautiful creative space that belongs to Emma from Ballarat Patchwork in Australia.

This is a corner of her room…so, there’s no need for a ton of space to make a lovely creative space of your own.

I love natural light when I’m working on projects, don’t you?  It seems to make everything so much prettier.  Of course, Emma added just the right touch with a pop of color here and there…I adore it!

I had to share this photo of her amazing patchwork couch…WOW!

You can read more about Emma’s creative space and meet her cat at Art Gallery Fabrics.

Have a fabulous week!

I don’t know about you, but I can always use a little inspiration!  These amazing inspiration boards might be just the right thing for your crafty space.  Talk about a fun project…this is one of the best!

Inspiration boards are the perfect spot for that scrap of ribbon, cool tag, ticket, or anything else that makes you happy.  I hate to see little things like this get left in a box or drawer where they can’t be seen.  I’m bad about that!

I sometimes wish I could decorate a whole house all girly and pretty with inspiration boards in each room to fit with my every mood…ah, a girl can dream right?

I would want a few like these…

Take a look at these dreamy areas for kids to use their imaginations and be creative. It’s so much better than a room full of video games, don’t you think?

This crafty area above is super cheerful and the shelves can be adjusted later when you want to update the room as they grow.  What a fun spot!

This is a great little space to have right in their bedroom.  I love the containers of pencils and such and the robot decals add a cute touch for sure!

This one would be perfect for kids or adults…I want that peg board in a pretty color like this!  There’s room for two to create here and I’m sure lots of creative ideas bloom right here.

Isn’t this beautiful?! I would never think to use a bench with pillows and there’s plenty of room to spread out.

You can make a space like this with storage cubes or a bookshelf on each end with an oilcloth covered sheet of plywood for the top.  It’s quick, easy and CUTE!

I’m always sharing inspiring craft areas for us, but I hope you enjoyed a little change this time.  Did you have an fun spot to create in when you were young? I used to spend so much time out on our back porch with some kind of colored pencils or markers {I always like new ones…they made me happy!}.

I’d love to hear about your creative childhood!

Do you sew?

If you do, you’ll want to move into this room the moment you see it!

This is one of those fabulous sewing areas where everything has a special place to be stored away. It’s all out of site and easily found. This sewing room is more of a “sewing nook” in the corner of a beautiful room.

Just take a moment to notice all the cabinets, drawers, and shelves LOADED with wonderful supplies. It would be so much fun to rent this house for a week, don’t ya think?

Here’s the other side of this dream room…

Wow! Isn’t that fantastic? I love the idea of having this room for visiting with everyone while you’re sewing, or just reading a magazine while waiting for inspiration to strike. You can’t beat that!

Details are everywhere…

This collection of vintage pincushions is pretty and practical at the same time. I need one of these cake pedestals!

Here’s something I haven’t seen before…

Fabric rolled up and placed in a shadow box is new to me! You can change it with the season while storing some of your fabric is a creative way.

I always like stare at my newest collection of fabric for awhile before cutting it. I leave it sitting out on my desk looking pretty. Am I the only one that does this? Just curious.

I can’t seem to get enough of sewing and crafting supplies! I’m always looking for fun ways to display or organize them so they don’t take over the house.

Feel free to share any tips or tricks you might use to keep things under control. Is it even possible?
