outside my little studio

well thanks to my gorgeous hubby i now have some sun protection on my dear little studio :)

how cute is my little veranda looking?
it is still to get last part of its roof and then some decking {which is recycled and looking quite rustic and weathered so i LOVE it!!} and ofcourse i will have to do some gardening in big pots to pretty the deck up but i think it will be a most lovely spot to stop & rest during the sewing workday to have a nice pot of tea.

 i want to hang some beautiful hand crochet bunting under the veranda and across that bare sandstone wall and i simply must find some chinese paper lanterns to hang {how cute will that be}

BUT check out the darn mess everywhere around it.....we grow good DIRT up here {poor lawn died 2 yrs ago with the drought as we couldnt water it}
we are doing all this on tight budget but the good thing about having a farm is that you ALWAYS have useful stuff laying around...the bad thing about a farm is that you ALWAYS have stuff laying around!!!


So pleased it is finally all coming together as we started down this path at beg of 2010 {yeah well that went belly up didnt it!!} BUT a new year calls for a fresh start, so i am happy to be finally getting this project well and truly underway.

The inside will be a surprise & i will wait til it is all completed before i share any pics of it but it is coming along slowly and looking abit 70's funky i must say LOL

i wont want to leave this sweet little studio of mine when we shift...but least i will get something bigger when we do :P
