Touring My Spring Studio

Blogger Stylin Home Tour: Spring Studio | Dream Green DIY

To those of you who might be new to Dream Green DIY, sent over from Michael at Inspired by Charm, WELCOME! I was thrilled to be asked to take part in this season’s Blogger Stylin’ Home Tours run by Lindsay at The White Buffalo Styling Co., and knew immediately the room that I would be sharing with everyone: my studio. The #dgdstudio—as I have affectionately dubbed it—is the second bedroom in our home, which I have outfitted with my prop collection, craft supplies and office set up.

Blogger Stylin Home Tour: Spring Studio | Dream Green DIY

This room is the one that I spend the majority of my time in for obvious reasons, although the main one is a little tough to show you in photos. The light is absolutely, positively magical in this space, and I know it’s something I will miss dearly when we move on to our next house. Every day at around 3:00 p.m., the room literally fills with sunshine. I wish that it was something that I could capture in pictures, but you really just have to experience it for yourself. Come on over anytime! I’d be happy to let you bask in it, too.

In terms of design, my studio is the most pure representation of my aesthetic—bright pastel colors, lots of modern patterns, hits of hot pink all over the place. It’s truly my happy place, and I’m so thankful for my husband who lets me go all out making this room “mine.” On a more personal level, I’ve experienced all sorts of project triumphs (and a few duds, too) in this room. My studio is where all of my big dreaming and scheming happens, and it’s a daily cause for celebration. It’s most definitely “home” to me.

Although your tour of the #dgdstudio is now all wrapped up, don’t fret because the fun isn’t. Now I happily send you off to my sweet friend Cassie’s blog, Primitive & Proper, where you’ll get to feast your eyes on her own stellar space. You won’t want to miss this one—trust me. Click here to check it out, and thanks for following along with us on this season’s Blogger Stylin’ Home Tours.
