" New Studio" Chrisy's Cottage

I have a passion for old French Bed dolls. These were given away as prizes at carnivals in the 30s' & 40's. How wonderful it must have been to have your loved one win you one of these....I have redressed many of them over the years and then sold them at the shop..... So you will probably see these soon at Chrisy's Cottage inside Posies... They are sooo LOVELY...... MY IDEA BOARD AND WORK TABLE....This is a old sturdy kitchen table I got at goodwill. This will be great to put my sewing machine on and work on all those altered art projects I love to do...The chairs to it I'm using with my farmhouse table in the kitchen. Will show you in another post...This room is a very tiny 2nd bedroom in my little cottage by the Sea. These Ikea bins fit perfect under this little Iron day bed I dragged home from the shop. Sometimes when items don't sell at the shop there's a reason... Now I also have another bed for a guest..... Organization has been key for this small space. I found 2 wonderful cabinets foe 45.00 at a second hand store in San Louis Obispo. They are working great to organize my bins... And hide all that little stuff that makes a room look messy. I got the bins at IKEA about 2 years ago and I love them. they have a place to slide in a label also. So you can see I've been busy. Now I am so inspired to start a project. Will post it on my next blog.A Big thank you to all my friends out there who wished me well in my new adventure. I'm getting ready my little guest area next, as friends and family are arriving for a visit next month... Hugs Chrisy & Kramer
