Rearranging the Studio · I Spent 4 Days Redecorating and Reorganising My Art Room

Join me for 4 intense days of clearing out, assembling furniture, reorganising and rearranging my art studio room. Featuring storage, room for Ozzy to work, space for our indoor herb garden, and of course, space for me to film and make art!

“It’s potentially gonna be the room we start our ..” Me: family? “..herb garden.” Me: EVEN BETTER!

[@katieroehrich8199]

Hahaha! I had the same reaction!

[@minniesmall]

😂

[@inkthered]

I love how honest you are in your videos, you admit, ‘yes my space isn’t perfect, but I’m going to try because it’s important to my process.’ Thank you once again for inspiring me to change when I know I feel like I’m stagnating, and realising how many outside factors could be responsible.

[@minniesmall]

Thank you :)

[@Jens_Art]

The amount of beautiful natural light in your art space...I’m a bit jealous 😍

[@ghanshyamsingh3653]

Me Too!!

[@Lisa.M.J]

I know right! 🙌

[@minniesmall]

It's the brightest room in the flat by far and it still knocks me back every time I walk in here 😊

[@DoriMuranyiArt]

Looks kind of like what I am struggling with - having to use the same room as living space, working space, art room...having to constantly rearrange things to be able to do what I need to do in that moment :) On another note, your videos are always such a pleasure to watch, you seem to have this peaceful and calm atmosphere around you.

[@minniesmall]

It forces us to be creative with our spaces, doesn't it ;) Thank you!

[@ev4787]

I was gonna clean my room but Minnie updated and I dropped everything to watch her clean...😂

[@ghanshyamsingh3653]

I get it...I did that yesterday for two of her videos then I fell asleep!!LOL

[@katieroehrich8199]

@@ghanshyamsingh3653 I was wondering if it's weird that I'd rather watch her clean that do it myself. I guess not. 😅

[@minniesmall]

LOL! 😂 All of you, go and do what you're supposed to be doing 👉

[@LinesAndCursives]

Guilty. I love her vlog and how to Playlists while I'm painting.

[@MrsQuam]

Gah! The productivity train keeps on rolling! You never fail to inspire!

[@minniesmall]

Yes! 💪 We're on a roll!

[@PorschaWrites]

I don't know how I missed this video, but it's all for the best because I'm tidying and rearranging my studio and this is perfect companionship

[@_JoyceArt]

1:30= the pose we’ve all made when redecorating a room. I probably spend about 20% of my time, if not more, whenever I’m redoing a room in my house. Also, I have that exact same easel!

[@minniesmall]

This happened several time over the few days I was working on this room 😂

[@suenetteedwards5965]

I love the way the table legs turned out! I can totally feel you concerning the box of art supplies! I have found myself having to "break the seal" of more than one set. ;-D. I have also found myself feeling that I should market my skills as an art studio organizer on more than one occasion. ;-D The great thing about reorganizing is the rediscovery of materials that have slipped my mind. Even better, is the feeling of new purpose for my creativity. New avenues to explore, new branches of creativity that have been forgotten.... the twists and turns that come with being an artist can actually be so overwhelming that I find myself having to take notes detailed enough that I don't lose the essence of my inspiration!! It seems that I keep having to do these things at least every 2-3 years. I have to say that the new explorations, whether it be because of new technologies or new ways to use old ones (I'm a classically trained oil painter), keeps my creativity fresh and I remain open to all possibilities.

[@promethea79]

Im watching your video for the fifth time while rearranging my own artspace!👩🏿‍🎨❤

[@dianahuynh1953]

is it weird to say that i subscribe to you not just for your aesthetic but for your voice as well? gosh it's so soothing.

[@breeblack4397]

I love indoor herb gardens! I'd love to see an update when you get it up and running :)

[@minniesmall]

I'll let you know how it goes!

[@RealBlackEssence]

Gracious, Minnie! The room looks absolutely amazing after all that organizing and, honestly, you have such a unique eye for room design for "The Artist" that no wonder it felt so inviting, inspiring, and motivating to be in there! The bright natural lighting in there makes it seem like it's like breathing fresh air in there! Plus, you look so cute in there looking like a little boss artist gal working hard in there! Im sure Oz was equally proud of you and happy about his new gaming space that you provided for him as well! Everything from the plants to that beautiful chair with the throw blanket on it was just perfect displayed and inviting and I couldn't be more impressed! Everything looks beautiful, Minnie! A well managed 4 day achievement!🤓👏🏾❤

[@debl3063]

I bet coming home to a built desk and organized space made his day. It looks great.

[@minniesmall]

I wish I got his reaction on camera, he loved it! 😊

[@ghanshyamsingh3653]

Rewatched it a couple times!!! And some of your old videos(the job-leaving and the dog-sitting ones) while sketching a building...SO LIBERATING....You are one of the best kind...LOveU

Thank you! (Glad it's not just me too!)

[@ghanshyamsingh3653]

The music stopped and I Became PARANOID... Checked the red timeline and my heart stopped...I sank in my bed AND WISHED...WISHED for the video to be of an hour long or more!!! SSSOOO THERAPEUTIC AND AWESOME ORGANISATION. THIS ROOM IS MY FAVOURITE EVEN WHEN MESSY....BelieveMe. LOveU

[@SUSSDUE]

How lovely you art room is!

[@ymReal]

I love it!!! Long life for you and best wishes in your beautiful journal 😍

[@lynnr9294]

I love what you've done with your studio...it seems to reflects the peaceful and vibrant way you approach your work...this video has given me so many ideas on how to reorganize my studio...thank you:-)

[@minniesmall]

Aw thank you :)

[@ItsLizV]

Your windows/microsoft Studio screen amazes me everytime I see it haha. I totally get why you reorganised your room! We don't use our living room much so it always gets used as a room where we put things that we don't want to deal with. Then it gets so overwhelming that we stop going in there all together and let things pile up even more. Right now we've got all the stuff in there that we need to take to the tip...

[@BiancaHaeckDesigns]

It's so satisfying to get clutter under control and have things find their own place. It's amazing how every time you move into a larger space, it still fills up so fast! I have to do clear-outs almost yearly now!

[@diannadiatz1140]

Dear Minnie, Congratulations on transforming your room! Facing the "stuff" is no easy task. Of course, the irony is as an artist, one is always creating more "stuff!" This was inspiring! Have a wonderful weekend! Best wishes, Dianna

[@emmacauvin]

I LOVE your video so much! I'm currently re-arranging my own space as well since I still live with my parents and I have a room which acts as a bedroom, study space, work space and creativity space and I understand how difficult it can be to have one space for multiple purposes. You managed to redesign your room so beautifully AND functionally! You did a great job and inspired me to tackle the re-design in my own room, so thank you and enjoy your "new" space :)

[@amywoolsey6591]

What a great space. Nice job!

[@miriamsinar7990]

You have such a peacefull voice

[@Exo_Scout]

Trapped in a similar bedroom/office/relaxation space/storage space because space is so expensive where I live, and this is definitely giving me some great ideas for how I can improve the flow of things! Thank you!

[@minniesmall]

The struggle is so real 💕

[@trallivalli9055]

Love this room ,so fresh!

WOW...you looked beautiful (not that you don't normally but there was radiance) in the last shot...so that was a good rearranging of space that you did...

Magnificent job! A lot of work but will be so energizing and fuel productivity. I've got to tackle my art/storage room and make it less cluttered and more functional. Thanks for the inspiration!

[@bajaboolie]

Oh wow, I’m intrigued by the PanArt box-the paper looked gorgeous. Could you do a separate video on it? I’m unfamiliar with this company but like the idea. And did they supply paint as well?

[@minniesmall]

They didn't supply paint but I'll talk more about the paper once I've used it! (it feels too special to use willy-nilly 😂)

I have watched and rewatched this video again and again during this covid-19 crisis. It has calmed me and has me try to arrange/organize our study/school room which is also a place where I hope can escape to doodle my art again..hard to find rest as a mother of 4 kidlets😊 Love your channel!

[@jadefeu9150]

Your voice is what cardstock sounds like I love it

[@miqf914]

What a beautiful space you ha e created. I love your honesty in showing what is normally off-camera. I am in the middle of cleaning and rearranging our family craft room, which has become a dump site for every placeless thing we have. Not at all conducive to creating, even if we had a cleared-off space in which to do so.😕

[@minniesmall]

Good luck with your own clear-out! It's worth it, I promise ;)

[@EvelineUK]

Loved this, what a great space. Our space room acts as our attic and is full of... stuff... Not even sure where to start on that one.

We're trying our best to spread all our 'stuff' in any little bit of space we have around the flat, but it just builds up! Impossible, isn't it!

Great stuff Minnie. It’s such a huge relief when everything has been cleared and put in its right place. Every time I do my room I love spending time in there. So why do I not keep it that way all the time? 😱. Loved when you said you left the legs for Ozzie and then cut to you painting the legs 😂😂 also might have held my breath but then you said Herbs 🌿😂😂😂

[@minniesmall]

I always forget that Oz doesn't see things like painting table legs as a treat or fun project (like I do 😂) he was certainly happy with the result though!
