Oh how I wish I had the cash to re-do my atelier. This is after all the place where I spend the majority of my waking hours. I am pretty good with the DIY but I did f-up (yes, that bad) my wood floors when I attempted to stain them ebony. Then to my dismay I realized that now I could see all the shedding that Miss Bella does, for a neatnik like myself this is very disturbing.
I may not be in the position to do anything at this moment, but I can start planning for that mystical, magical day when I'll have oodles of cash or a couple extra bucks to start my makeover... I did find this gorgeous inspiration from The Beach Studios in the U.K. I think this is a good start..(note the white floors..)
