A huge Thank You to Linda Blinn for the amazing article in Studios Magazine ~ Summer 2011. The issue is full of inspiration and ideas for your art and craft space.
Also in this issue is "Get Found on Etsy" which has great tips for all Etsy shop owners. On page 36, the article is titled "Color is Primary" and features my art studio from the beginning stages. In the interview, I talk about the planning process of my art studio / home office as well as advice and tips for designing a space in your home that suits your craft - whatever it may be.
If you are a blogger, and spread the word about my work, please email me at laura.trevey@gmail.com with the link - and I will be sure to give your blog credit
in my Thank You post!

I can be more productive in the day, if my home office is organized. Here are a few tips to ensure that your work space stays de-cluttered for you.
The more shelves and cabinet drawers you have, the better chance your office will be organized. My rule I practice daily is "Everything has a certain place."
At the end of each work day, be sure to put all items back to their specific spot. This will de-clutter the counter tops and you will remember where your items are
when it's time to use them again.
Utilize wall space. As seen here, I built a custom framed pegboard to hang my "works in progress" as well as some of my framed watercolor art paintings.
I love the Pottery Barn daily system which keeps me on track. The magnetic/ dry erase board calendar is my favorite piece.
Here it is in my studio.

I really love this "Where We Blog" series! Not only is it fun to get a peek into where you blog, but it has introduced me to some wonderful NEW people and blogs to follow. Please send me your photo if you have not done so already! Today we get to peek into the home of Beatriz of That Girl in Pearls. She has a striking room with a deep, rich wall color
- a handsome wooden mirror (I will add this to my mirror collection)
- and a cool deer wall hanging.
I also received a great photo from Kathy of Never Enough Thyme. I love this photo for two reasons. Number one, look at Kathy's view... and number two, before we built my art studio - I also blogged from our kitchen!!
