Its strange where we like to situate ourselves. I have to work facing a window not so much for the light as a painter would need I just feel comfortable that way otherwise I feel annoyed about what I am making and less likely to finish it.<br />xxlittle brick house ceramicshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06844157337907513074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7312785806892367781.post-4318287411765647742011-06-02T22:58:00.386+01:002011-06-02T22:58:00.386+01:00I'd try and have a bit of a change around and ...I'd try and have a bit of a change around and maybe a de-clutter (says the queen of clutter)<br /><br />I'd move the desk so it is side on to the window and I would put my easel near the window for when I was doing bigger paintings that I could leave out but I must admit I like to do most of my painting in my kitchen. <br /><br />Jan xJanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17336961340492919983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7312785806892367781.post-15624105890524087912011-06-01T16:29:40.608+01:002011-06-01T16:29:40.608+01:00Maybe it needs to look more 'workmanlike' ...Maybe it needs to look more 'workmanlike' whatever that means ;-) It's too comfortable and there are too many distractions, like looking out of the window. . . I used to have my drawing desk side on to the window as I am right handed, and the light was just right for drawing as my hand's shadow didn't get in the way. maybe move things round a bit and put all your craft stuff in there so you have to go in there to get it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7312785806892367781.post-2384178481233145142011-06-01T11:11:58.161+01:002011-06-01T11:11:58.161+01:00I always end up in the sitting room too, even thou...I always end up in the sitting room too, even though I have a nice room to work in. But I agree with Dawn, maybe you need more inspiring colour in your decor, as the colours (which are GORGEOUS)are possibly a little too relaxing.<br /><br />Hannelore xHannelorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04277167326003686791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7312785806892367781.post-6755517119644007092011-06-01T10:03:31.976+01:002011-06-01T10:03:31.976+01:00Our house isnt big enough to have my own craft roo...Our house isnt big enough to have my own craft room - but I do have a craft cupboard for everything.

Like yourself I set up shop on the dining room table. I have since taken over the dining room totally. <br />I found I was shut off from the hustle and bustle of the house, used to family noise it was too quiet and solitary in my craft room.<br />{Dab and a dash.}Lorna Mayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05859894549175879280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7312785806892367781.post-53456520906718525942011-06-01T09:26:15.057+01:002011-06-01T09:26:15.057+01:00Your gorgeous dining room is bright and iconic, ma...Your gorgeous dining room is bright and iconic, maybe your craft room needs some bolder decor, maybe you are drawn to the reds and the pattern :)dawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17978263669919740765noreply@blogger.com
