I am on the task for a major studio redo and part of it is going through piles of stuff – so I am using finally some things up that I have had forever. Including some old calendars which had prints of my paintings from a while ago.
I sketched the lady and made her some city clothing with my Stroll stamps and collaged the prints. I also stamped some windows into the left building to tie it more together with the rest of the page. I also used some of my hoarded washi tape…I mean …how much washi tape can you store forever? – LOL
The whole studio redo is a long process because I have been traveling so much- but a plan has surfaced and right now before I move furniture and get new furniture, the first step is to purge and to get a grip on how my work flow actually looks like. I will keep you updated on the whole process …I ‘m on my way ;)
Here are some of the supplies I used for this spread

Great page and words Nat.
I too have tons of washi tape…why did I feel the need to save it???
Crazy how we can be about supplies.
Currently purging as well and much of the paper and embellies are going to the local elementary school where I work. The kids just love the items.

right? LOL- I cannot believe the copious amount of stuff :) Love that you are giving some goodies to an elementary school – it is always wonderful if they can use some supplies!

Be sure and take before and after photos to see how much you accomplished.

Evelyn- I will – promised. As I am also looking for a new desk it is taking some time to change …on the one hand that is good as it provides the opportunity to be very thorough on the other it just doesn’t end

Really like this layout.
A studio makeover can simultaneously be frustrating and invigorating. Have fun with it. It’s always an adventure!

I am envious of your spring cleaning/purge effort. I have way too much stuff and it’s actually inhibiting my ability to work in my space. I’m cheering you on and I will be watching to see how your space transforms into something new!

Thank you Janene! I know exactly what you mean about inhibiting the ability to the work- same here.
