After you’ve just cleaned it because of an upcoming television segment! Oh, you know it. When I think back on every time I’ve “refreshed” my art room, it’s always involved a camera crew. and that was the case when Jan Monzures from Craft Room Crash contacted me to be featured on the nationally syndicated show!
A few years back I 100% purged my space and even glittered the floor. It felt fresh and liberating to start from scratch. I made sure to put everything back in its place and clean up as I go. At least I thought I did. When I started to tidy up my space for Jane’s shoot – I realized how much of a mess had built up again!
So I purged again! I created boxes for Goodwill and tossed out anything expired, dried up, or unusable. After a solid eight hours of cleaning, my room was back just the way I like it!
Wipe down and clean your area so it’s free of dust, debris, even germs.
Keep lotion and a nail kit nearby in case you film video tutorials.
always wear shoes, flip-flops, slippers, etc in your workroom, you never know what’s on the floor!
Branded packing tape. I love this stuff. I use it on my outgoing packages because I feel like it adds a lot of personality!I glittered my bulletin boards! Here is the tutorial. This is a puffy heart made by my friend Anita from The Phoenix Fridas.I like to find random place for random things. Every spot is filled with inspiration!This is my gallery wall behind where I sit. The goal is to do more YouTube videos!I have my books on display to remind myself to keep writing. and to remind myself of big accomplishments (for those days when I’m feeling uninspired).I’m constantly drawing and painting. Practice makes progress. I use this space to hang up recent pieces.Mugs fresh out of the kiln!I paint mugs almost every night to keep up with the demand.
