So happy to be participating again this year in the
Where Bloggers Create blog party
Welcome to Vintage Sparrow Studio
I'll show you around my little creative sanctuary ♥
I always seem to have something growing or rooting along my window sills
{avocado pits have been a favourite for years as we eat so many avocados}
My vintage metal drawers were found and gifted to me by my son.
In my favourite colour green ~ the drawers hold all my stamps and stamping inks.
Photos I've taken of the Sparrows in our garden can be found throughout.
And the sweetest little "love notes" by grandsons hands.
When you become a Grandmother
you are blessed with lots of art work & I have it displayed throughout ♥
Everything in my studio
has been found at
garage sales * our local animal shelter store * or curb side freebies
My Clair Murray hand hooked runner was a lucky garage sale find!
I love to combine my Art with favourite quotes and my weavings
This is one of my favourites ...
With lots of woodland walk treasures added ...
skeleton leaves ... feathers ... pinecones ... dried flowers...acorns ...
Feathers found on walks come home with me
studio chandelier
A recently painted canvas brush roll
old vintage drawers found curbside now hold excess bottles of paint
a new painting on the easel
an old variety store "chip rack" holds small pieces of art
jam jars with garden flowers sit on my art table

another fun garage sale find was my store magazine rack
which now holds magazines I've been published in
my "Narnia" like art cupboard
which holds paper, books, canvas, paints, brushes, markers, pencils etc
a well loved suitcase holds my wool
loved brushes
