Making a Plan

After looking at the “disaster photos” of my studio (which were posted on yesterday's blog) I decided I needed to put together some ideas for how I want the new studio to look. I am not really buying anything (ok, I am buying a few things) but the main focus is de-clutter and re-organize. So the first task was to draw out a floor plan to determine where everything will go.

I first drew a “before floor plan” with the essential pieces of furniture. This included two work stations, three storage pieces (from the Container Store) and one very tall canvas storage unit. Plus I have my comfy chair and ottoman, a few tables and the ikea turquoise paint storage bins. Hopefully everything else is going to be stored elsewhere (including throwing a lot of stuff in the trash!).

I then drew five more floor plans and finally nailed it on the fifth one. (By the way, I drew these on a yellow tablet with a pen, nothing fancy.) I love how everything is now situated and that all of the important components have a purpose and a great place. I am so excited to redo my studio with my new plan! I can hardly stand it!
