We’re here.
Finally.
It’s been a little over a week since we moved to Poland; we’ve had a lot of help getting all the details sorted…so at last we can say we’re officially moved in! I love this big old house we’re living in and the fact that I finally have a studio/office room I can call my own.
The weekend was spent unpacking and arranging, and I’m absolutely giddy to get my hands on my papers, brushes, paints, inks, stamps, tools and everything else—it’s like seeing old friends after a long absence! And I just love the process of claiming a new space, especially for creative purposes: I now have a room with a door that closes, perfect for keeping a certain curious toddler out of messy and dangerous supplies—plus giant closets to keep my totes of workshop supplies, class samples, and class tools; a cabinet with files and records and (ugh) business expense reports, and lots of room for everything else.
Even better, I have space for two tables so I can dedicate one for papercrafting/stamping/art journaling, and another for jewelry making…it’s such a luxury to have the space that I am absolutely swooning. I no longer have to share with the kitchen activities—yay!
Did I mention the door that closes? Double swoon.
So a few things still need to be done in here, of course: Some wall décor will be nice, and I should probably clean that floor. But right now I am absolutely aching to make something—anything. The only creative work I’ve done for the past three weeks has been journal writing, and I’m just desperate to put some color onto something. So bear with me on these photos…you’ll see more changes to come.
Thanks for stopping by!
Nice! It looks beautiful and it IS big — and yours!!! Yay!!!
That looks great, with all that space you can even start a dance class 🙂 Glad you’re settling in ! 🙂 xoxo
So jealous. I am still creating in the middle of my living room. Great things will come from that space I can tell! Congrats.
Welcome to Poland….what an experience you have ahead of yourselves. Hooooray for the room with the,,,,DOOR!!!!
Have a fun weekend!
LOL, Fab, no one in their right mind would pay me to teach them to dance!
Hi Sara, I stumbled on you site from Suzanne McNeil’s blog and the first thing I read was about you moving to Gdansk! I was there a year ago and it is a most beautiful city. I have dear friends there. I have even been to Sopot and your photos brought back so many memories. Enjoy your time there, immerse yourself in the history, and discover the beauty of Polan.
