An amazing studio you have. Love the mix of old and new and the little irons on the windowsill ☺️💜

[@PixieKDesigns]

Thank you Karen. The irons were given to me by David’s Mum. She has quite the collection. Thanks for watching 🌸💙

[@lisawills-iq6ue]

Wow what a beautiful space!

[@PixieKDesigns]

Thank you Lisa. Yes it’s a lovely space and I love spending time in it 🌸💙. Thanks for watching ❤

[@user-dr8gd1js3z]

Lovely to see your studio, and what a great space it is. I enjoyed seeing how you file everything - hopefully I will be inspired to sort my own chaos into something as beautiful.

[@PixieKDesigns]

Thanks so much. I think the organisation of all our ‘collections’ is a work in progress. I actually quite enjoy that part of the craft 🌸💙

[@janngibson4888]

I am with you Kate. I work better in a tidy space. Amazing how the mess accumulates. That Hat would make a great base for a vessel ❤ I have the same Bernini sewing machine. It was a 21st present many years ago. Still going strong.

[@PixieKDesigns]

Thanks so much Jann. Yes the mess builds up so quickly. Oh, that hat would have made a great stitched vessel. The sewing machine was purchased for my daughter years ago secondhand, but too heavy for her to take to Australia. I have hung onto it and it’s such a good workhorse. I’ve just had it fully serviced and there was not a thing wrong with it. 🌸💙

[@lilynz.l3]

You've done such a great job in tidying up your studio Kate, despite your sore knee. Hope it gets better soon. How I wish I could come and visit you one day, who knows?❤❤❤

[@PixieKDesigns]

@@lilynz.l3 thanks so much Lily. I would love that too. It would be wonderful 🌸💙

[@jenniferwatson7118]

Lovely space!

[@PixieKDesigns]

Thank you Jennifer. 🌸💙

[@marleneabbot7708]

Morena Kate, you look so cute wizzing around, and the end result looks great. Your Studio is now tidied to within an inch of its life 😂😂 Sorry to hear that your knee is still troubling you. I’m sure the pain will be impacting on your productivity. Take care xx Marlene

[@PixieKDesigns]

@@marleneabbot7708 hi Marlene, thanks so much. It’s looking pretty good now. I am still hoping the knee will come right. Thanks for watching 🌸💙

[@MeredithHenning]

Always good to have a refresh!! It looks awesome and sending prayers for your knee pain!!! xoxo

[@PixieKDesigns]

@@MeredithHenning thanks so much Meredith 🌸💙

[@joyjunktique]

I love your studio, Kate. I love your bookcase and how you’ve colored coordinated your beautiful books. Everything looks so nice and tidy. What a wonderful space to work in. Praying your knee feels better. And I’m sure you’ll be back to creating soon… sometimes I think we all just need a break to rest and reset. Big hugs, sweet friend! Going to watch your haul video… love that hat and those flowers!🥰

[@PixieKDesigns]

Hi Rhonda, thanks so much. I do love the book shelf. I’m trying not to panic too much. I do have a DT project to complete though 😂😂. Check out the funny pic of me in the hat 😂🌸💙

[@ShabbyCottageStudio]

I just love your studio Kate and could walk right in and get right to work. I also love your collection of old books, all those colors so inspiring. I am also one who does not work well in chaos and so have to stop and give my little studio a tidying after each project. Thanks for sharing! 😘🥰

[@PixieKDesigns]

@@ShabbyCottageStudio thanks so much Gail. It’s so nice to walk in here and it’s all tidy. I do have a lot of beautiful books. I just need to get cracking and turn them into journals 😊🌸💙

[@jupiterarts_crafts]

Was wonderful seeing your workspace, and great job in tidying up. I would so love to live next to a beach and wouldn’t mind all the sand dust, thanks for sharing your special place💕

[@PixieKDesigns]

@@jupiterarts_crafts thank you Virginia. Yes it is wonderful to live by the ocean. 🌊 🌸💙

[@RaindropLila7]

You have such a wonderful studio! And your hat with all the millinery flowers is so gorgeous! Thank you so much for sharing your space with us!

[@PixieKDesigns]

Thank you Lidia 🌸💙

[@RaindropLila7]

@@PixieKDesigns You are so welcome!

[@Shane-us4ks]

🧚🏻‍♀️You have a wonderful workspace for creating Kate! I’m drooling over your amazing book collection! Merci for taking us on the tour! Are you happy with your printer? I do hope you get some relief for your knee.🤞🏻😘

[@PixieKDesigns]

Thanks so much Shane. I am very lucky to have this beautiful space. I need to use some of those books and make some journals instead of just gazing at them adoringly 😂. I have a love hate relationship with my printer. It prints well over all but you very much need to know about print management and what paper you are using. Sadly the scanner I am not happy with. It seems to scan everything with a pinkish hue which I can’t seem to remedy before scanning or in photoshop. A lot of the problems I have are because of my own lack of skill and knowledge and it makes me very frustrated. I love that it prints borderless and A3. I would just love to work out how to scan some of the lovely pieces I own primarily to use in my own work. I need a scanning fairy Godmother to come and help me 😂😂😂❤

[@alittlebitfrench2022]

I adore your studio!! I love the way you organize. Now I have to go watch the haul video!! Those hat flowers are amazing!!! I love millinery!

[@PixieKDesigns]

@@alittlebitfrench2022 thanks so much Rhonda. It’s a very eclectic space but I do love spending time in here. I was so thrilled with the hat. It’s tatty but I just had to have those flowers. 😂🌸💙

[@CatherineSunnysideJournals]

I can easily see the Queen Mum wearing that hat when it was in all its glory back in the day... ❤

[@PixieKDesigns]

😂😂 yes you are right Catherine. ❤

[@shawnschoonmaker9366]

Thank you for sharing your space and your thought process for storage. I’m sorry your knee is still hurting. I did two sessions of dextrose therapy before PRP around my shoulder blade and upper back toward my neck (spaced out over 3 months) several years ago. It did help but took patience on my part - not an easy accomplishment! I can only suggest you be kind to yourself and not be frustrated. Take care and good luck!

[@PixieKDesigns]

Hi , thank you for watching. Thank you for sharing your experience with the treatments for your shoulder. I have had no relief from the PRP and so far none from the Cortisone. My pain seems to be growing worse. I am so very frustrated. I am not sure who I can go and see about it. Anyway. You are right. I must be patient. Thank you 🌸💙

[@suefryer2991]

Lovely walk through, I agree I cant work in a mess to start with but it does get messy while creating.Hubby says I spend more time tidying than creating. 🤣😂

[@PixieKDesigns]

Oh yeah the mess builds up so fast. If it’s messy then I know I’m getting creative though. 😊🌸💙

[@ChristinasPaperCreations]

Yo I have such a wonderful space. Thanks for sharing 💗

[@PixieKDesigns]

Thank you Christina. I am very lucky. Thanks for watching 🌸💙

[@Mad_Melissa]

What a fabulous studio! I myself have been to sick to even do JJJ at the moment, stupid flu! Your space is wonderful I hope to create something just as wonderful in my home one day 🤞

[@PixieKDesigns]

Oh no Melissa. I’m so sorry you have had the flu. I hope you are feeling better. I do love my space. I know you have a super busy household but I hope you have a spot to create your beautiful art ❤

[@laurettechandlerthevintage3022]

Everything looks lovely and tidy my friend! I remember it after your flood, it has come a long way. I love where you get to work everyday. Enjoy! I just just did some clean up in my studio but have a ways to go. I need to pare down the recycled boxes and bags and papers, getting too much. 😁 Have a lovely rest of your week.

[@PixieKDesigns]

Thanks so much Laurette. It really needed a refresh. Yes, it has certainly been brought back from the almost dead since the floods 😅. I am almost constantly re assessing my supplies. It’s great to have a sort out that’s for sure. Take care. ❤

[@EmmaDurrans]

What a beautiful craft space! I’m the same, I can’t work when my space is messy 😊

[@PixieKDesigns]

Thank you Emma. Yeah, a regular clean is a must ❤

[@joannescollectiveco.4240]

✨💖✨👋🏻🥰

[@PixieKDesigns]

😊🌸💙

[@thescrapbookingphotographe3607]

A great space, Kate! It’s essential to recharge yourself every now and then. Hopefully you get some help for that knee soon. Pain doesn’t really help the creativity juices flow does it🥴. Take care.

[@PixieKDesigns]

@@thescrapbookingphotographe3607 thanks so much Lynda. I’m so glad I spent the time getting the space cleaned up. So far the two treatments I’ve had have not helped overly much so I’m at a loss. Thank you for your well wishes. Much appreciated 🌸💙

[@DevonLass]

Thanks for these insightful video. What a stunning studio! I was just wondering, could you do a video of your favourite books that you rip pages from? I always love the pages and the papers that you use. It would be great to have a video of your favourite books all in one place. Just an idea 😉😉 Lots of love from Dinah 🇬🇧❤

[@PixieKDesigns]

Hi Dinah, thank you. I do love my space, I’m very lucky. That’s a great idea for a video and I will do my best to put something together. ❤

[@memoryjournalsbyyvon]

A very beautiful and spacious craft room 😍. I always clean up after every project, works best for me and my smaller craft room haha. Hope your inspiration will return soon.

[@PixieKDesigns]

Thanks so much Yvonne. It still amazes me how I can still mess up every inch of this big room 😂😂Thanks for watching 🌸💙
