The ART of Tidying Up! A Transformational clean with me, organise, DIY storage, declutter

I love to do this at this time of year... Tidy up with me, organise, DIY storage solutions (thank you James!) and clean the flock up! It's about time! And, we hardly spent a penny! I hope this motivates you too for a bit of autumn (or spring!) cleaning! Sweeping up the dust bunnies is self care. James has helped me build some storage to stash away my all art supples. And yes, it has been life-changing! I consider many levels of cleaning as a spiritual practise, feng shui, mental wellbeing and the uplifting of the spirit in this process. Let me know what you think of my final results of my art studio makeover because at the end I will give you a tour! ALSO! - Thank you so much for keeping me company on this wild ride called life! Try to keep your lights shining bright out there! Love you all to bits, Wendy. Xx

It's good to see James interacting & relaxing in front of the camera, you do make a beautiful team together & create some wonderful space's together

[@LisaIsabelle]

Everyone needs a James! Loving, caring, supportive and always ready to help. You two did a fantastic job, Wendy! It looks so cozy and inviting!

[@abis4064]

Dear Wendy, I discovered your channel a few days ago and I’ve been binge watching your videos ever since. You have inspired me so much and your videos make me feel so safe and encouraged to follow my dreams at my own pace. I’m an artist in my 20s and sometimes the pressure I feel stops me creating but you are a bright light and it makes me want to be brave and be one too! Thank you for the safe space this channel has become. You are such a beautiful and radiant soul! Xxxxxx

[@theunexpectedgypsy]

You’re so welcome here thanks for keeping us company ♥️♥️♥️keep shining and happy creating 😙😙😙

[@lauriehessler8639]

Your so lucky to have James! I am on my own and have been for a very long time. It would be nice to have help with projects or just someone to bounce ideas off of. Anyway, the studio looks great! Can't wait to see what you create next 😊

[@alicejump2290]

Cheerio! Love what you have done! My years as a social worker where I met people in their home environment made me aware of how much a person’s mental and spiritual Health was affected or even reflected by unorganized and cluttered spaces! At the time I wasn’t aware of Feng Shui principles, but often there were natural solutions, improvements occurred when spaces were opened and orientation adjustment! I think we could see this in this video and it inspires us! Blessed and safe days!

Yes, I appreciate James...an extraordinary partner. Lovely studio improvements. I look forward to seeing your next creations Wendy. Many blessings.

Dear Wendy and James, what a team! I wish I had a James in my life. Love the paint tube set-up and good place for the wood shelf, I’ve never liked my back to any door. The studio looks so open and free . Love that you have a space to spin around or yoga. It’s beautiful. James is a very cool guy to have around. A keeper! Beautiful time with you. Enjoy the week ahead. Enjoyed a cuppa with you both. Sending hugs and love from my space to yours. Sprinkle fairy dust around to keep us all feeling bright and full of light. ❤️☮️✌️💫💋

[@theunexpectedgypsy]

I know meee toooo!! Such patience to make such a thing too!!! Good luck with your transformations!!! xxxx

[@junemaguire5053]

I think less is more, I started painting 2 years ago, having come into painting close to 70, I cant believe how much I have accumulated in that time, so much so that I find it more difficult to get motivated now, so I intend going into my studio re arranging and parting with at least half of my stuff, so that the space takes me back to where I first started, less is more Wendy, we don’t need all we think we need.

[@greatedges]

Excellent improvements! I can actually “feel” the new comfort of your work space. The “wall” to enclose the area is brilliant. I so agree with the importance of having a “nurturing” space in which to work. Enjoy! And thanks for all of your inspiring videos.

[@Blick_Art]

This was truly time well spent! Your studio is gorgeous, looks like an ideal space to create. We do think it's time to declare a day of appreciation for the humble binder clip, without which so many artists' studios would fall to pieces!

[@theunexpectedgypsy]

wahoo! Thanks Blick! And yes, very true re the clips!!!

Quick question... How did you make the transition to a full-time artist? I'm wanting to transition from my "day career" to a full-time artist. Any suggestions? Thanks for your insight

[@Dayisnear]

Ooh, love your vlogs and art! If the boxes are low key bother and pleases you, you could always scavenger after a pretty, colourful fabric and hang over them as a door without being a door :) am finding that I can follow your thought process quite easily, which is rare for me at times…but got the same problem, and having issue with where to place my art stuff in my small-ish apartment 😅 (& that I am overthinking is always “helping”) Keep up the lovely work and vlogs tho! They are calming!

[@DreamingCatStudio]

Beautiful job! And inspiring. You’re both so sweet. I’ve wanted to hang my paints that way-I think I will now! Thank you for a lovely studio refresh.

[@L_une]

Empaté thing I have noticed, white sheer or lace fabric that can veil or re'veil' the windows during busy to peaceful times helps muffle when you wanna cocoon. 🥰 I love big windows, openness, truth, vulnerability- c'est la vie but all vessels benefit from a bit of a veil be it skin or bark, a sash, or even art. 😉☺️💖 it also sorta even adds more light when off to the sides of the window because the light bounces from it and it just brings an ethereal airy feel. And aaa when you open the windows and the wind sets sail to the soft drapery, aaa feels so magical!

[@nathalieeisele6130]

I think its not so easy to be ordered for a real artist as you are. I adore you two, so lovely and funny. Thank YOU for keeping me so much company. The poem of the Free Spirits moved me...😊✨💚🌷🌞🎶🦋🍀🌹🕊️🎈🌻

[@KerrieDuff]

I love that; house care: a real game changer in attitude. Thanks. And yes I love learning from these two too. I feel a paint station board coming up and I can reclaim the place where the trolley is taking up so much floor space. The tricky part is I use a wheelchair so can' go up too high on the wall space. But I will figure it out.

[@HelenHobden]

@@KerrieDuff I love that too ; there is something about the word 'housework' that puts me right off it! I hope you find solutions to your art space; maybe S hooks and rails on the side of any tables, window sills etc could help.

An idea to get a bell that rings by the door when it opens? that way u know if someone is about to enter.

[@alexandraalmeida3661]

A space where we feel at home is absolutely needed for our mental well being. Since I was an adolescent, I saw that need and rearranged my room to my liking. My parents always allowed me to do whatever I wanted to feel happy in my room. Now, as an adult, I am still like that. My art room is my happy place, but my bedroom, living room, kitchen, etc, is accordingly to my mental well being: no visual pollution, only what really makes me happy. No objects that mean nothing to me or bring bad memories, shells, stones, plants, my art work, family photos and that’s basically what makes my house my happy place and comfortable for me to do my art. Thanks for keeping me company, see you soon, Wendy 💙💜❤️🧡💚💗🖤💛♥️

Your space looks great. James is such s super help with great understanding of your needs. Whenever I tidy and reorganize my stuff I get a bit lost for a week or two. I am getting ready to start the inside of an angel/goddess / white witch/alchemy journal for my new daughter out law ,Dawn, who is so lovely she even came to Mum's funeral last week and looked after me so kindly people couldn't believe this was only our second meeting. She feels like the daughter I would have loved to have and now I do. All sorts of exciting, sad and life changing events are happening in my life and with Dad and Mum passing in the last 4 months a lot of worry has gone too. I am being very peaceful and quiet. Spring has suddenly turned very wet and cold again. I've had the fire going all day and I've been journaling, avacado dying papers , crocheting and fussy cutting while I.watched a movie on Netflix.

Had fun with it...added a beautiful plant/plant stand for the healthful benefits!

[@janinafisher101]

James is indeed a godsend! What a great team you are! This is looking great. I keep having a vision of that long painting in front of your computer in the "Oval Office" hanging above your lovely daybed - or something long and narrow like it. I, too, while watching your previous videos have been wondering about the placement of things in that room given the odd shape and placement of the door. I hope that this arrangement provides a space for many happy and comfortable hours painting! (By the way, thanks to the recommendation of an online art course I am now taking, I now have a 4 x 8 foot easel which is a piece of 3/4" MDF on an A-frame "easel" (just three 2 x 4s screwed together in an A shape, with the middle 2 x 4 where the MDF rests) the top of which just rests against the wall. It is fabulous. I can tape work to it that is on paper, or stack canvases one atop the other, and still have plenty of room to work on a painting. Many of the other students have a rolling cart beneath the crosspiece of the "A", but I have a table perpendicular to the easel on which I keep the supplies I am working with. You are an inspiration!

[@sarabi3827]

I'm moving to a small room in my brother's house, long story short, cost of living crisis has meant that I have to up sticks and move. Can no longer afford my independent life. Moving in with my brother and his wife. It's amazing how much clutter we accumulate in our life. Have been donating to charity shops. Still the room I am moving to is small. Just space for a bed, wardrobe and one bedside table. Life just sucks right now. I had a large selection of art supplies, my own library of over 200 books as well as much loved odds and ends including music and movies. No amount of Feng Shui will help me sort my life out. I feel terrible right now. I understand what you meant by being unable to create when life around you is cluttered. Your creative juices get blocked and you are unable to let this invisible force, move through and around you. I do so hope you feel liberated now and that you start creating your amazing art soon. All the very best sending you lots of love and best wishes.

Hi Wendy, I discovered your channel about a week ago and am loving your vlogs. You are so inspiring and honest and I love your faries. My creative space is our spare room, so every time someone stays I have to pack my stuff away which makes me sad (and happy as I love seeing my family and friends). Is there a web site about feng shui that you would recommend. It is something that I think would help me as I often don’t feel a space is “right” but I can’t say why. Xx

Good evening Wendy! I watched this video and realized that the chaos of my creation corner was depressing and blocking my flow. I took a few before photos and started the daunting task of putting it in order. I got only far enough to uncover some interesting bits that I have been working on. I have been percolating on making a journal for some time now, along with the card creating that I do. I have a ton of materials for this craft. But when I sit down to create a new card my mind is messy. I took your advice and made a cup of Lady Grey tea and started making the bits that will fill my journal. I also have your videos playing as I work because your soft voice and encouraging words quiet my jumbled mind and the floodgate has opened. Somewhere I found this quote "Mess is stress, organize your way to serenity. I wrote this out on a piece of stamped cardstock and taped it to the wall over my desk as a reminder to finish decluttering. Thank you for your inspiration.

[@marilynthomson9564]

I'm a writer and a journal maker while they can complement each other, I had stopped doing both. It seems I had too much of both and they were all over the place. So, taking notes from your video I am going to have a clearing out and reorganize the lot. Thanks for sharing

I'm going thru the same feelings about my writing. I used to be a mosaicist. I still love crafting and DIY moments but am focused on writing. However, not having the correct setup is so important and not what I have at the moment. Looking to move.

Wow! you and James are a dynamic duo. Great job since you have a lot of materials and of course what you call bits and bobs. Seems like I am a year late to the "party" so I wonder if you still have than mannekin and why if you do sine it takes up a lot of space both visual and practical.

Brilliant idea to create a cubby feeling by adding that divide between paint area and front door! Feels less like a hallway Im sure now. Brilliant. Hoping you are feeling mega creative and feel like you are being hugged by the room in support for creativity!!! It looks great from out here lol. meow meow purrrs

Studio is looking great! If it’s anything like mine, it’s always a work in progress. I store my acrylics on a board like yours too. Big thank you to James for all his hard work on your space. You two are adorable together. 😘

Thought you’d dyed your hair green when I saw the little picture on my phone! It was the scarf but actually it would look lovely in a non natural colour! Fairy hair! And maybe a fabric oil cloth on the oval table rather than the transparent cover?…. 🤔
