The Wall


This is how I left Cinnamon Studio.
I wanted a bright space to get back to
and reds and oranges always perk me up.
It was the first display that I didn't mind
the fire extinguisher (bottom right) in
the photo as it seems to fit right in!


Yesterday I found this recently published
book at the library and hurried to check it out
with my new library card. It is:
Creative Walls 
How to Display and Enjoy Your Treasured Collections
by Geraldine James.
I spent a perfect evening taking in the gorgeous photos
and "out of the box" ideas that require some risk,
creative spirit and faith in your  collections.
I very highly recommend  this delightful and inspiring
author who says:
"My passion has always been creating beauty from nothing."
An artist after my own heart!

What a great idea leaving your studio wall set up and ready to inspire you! I'll have to check if our library has the book available here. I hope so. Thanks for the info.

Thanks Carole!
The library is my favorite place to savor books!

I read this book awhile ago too, Marie. Am still thinking about some of the concepts of how to group things.
