Sewing room makeover & tour: my whimsical, moody sewing studio

Here's a look back at how I set up my sewing studio with mostly thrifted, scavenged, or DIY'ed changes and made the COZIEST lil dark cottagecore/ western gothic/ moody workspace.

So nice 🐦

I love how mismatched yet cohesive everything came together 😍 and the maroon curtains really worked with the green wall!

[@tigrezangel]

It's all very lovely. The green accent wall, the B&W striped cushion and the B&W checker rug are my favorite things (because they're my favorite colors are patterns)🐦

[@helvyrah]

i love what you did there! it suits you very well!

[@lilaholland5764]

Though your tastes are different from my own, I love the way you thrifted, repurposed, & used things you had on hand to bring everything together! Congratulations & Enjoy

Great video! 🐦 I have two Ruggable rugs in my own apartment, and while I do agree that the low pile is not particularly luxurious and they can be pricy, the fact that the rugs are easily washed is a game changer if you have pets or small kids. For me with a big dog, being able to wash it easily and quickly makes it worth every penny!

[@OutfitRepeater]

The ability to wash it definitely influenced my decision to buy it, but I don’t have kids or pets 😅 so I can’t fully appreciate that function I guess haha

[@gelyna_fashionfood]

I love your matches color.

LOVE your patchwork skirt remake! I just watched the video where you decided to take the blue out. Well done!! It’s gorgeous! 👏

[@OutfitRepeater]

Thanks! I was wondering if anyone would notice haha

[@sewndebisdream6953]

Congratulations on your new happy place - sewing room! I like everything about it. Leave the wall blank by your clothes rack. Yes, bring in a comfy armchair for relaxing. A very unique place! 🤗

[@OutfitRepeater]

Thanks!!

Beautiful. Id make a little kitty window cushion pad for 🐱 to watch the birds and to sit happily while you sew💓

[@VioletToadstool]

I appreciate the Ruggable review! They've been tempting me but it's hard to find real reviews.

[@OutfitRepeater]

I do wonder if washing the rug will get rid of the waxy feeling… but I also don’t want it to lose its shape haha

[@tammytatum7081]

We have three Ruggable rugs in our home, I love them. They are beautiful, easy to clean, and as a person who goes barefoot in the house I think they feel good against my feet.

[@tessasilvestro4902]

🐦 made it to the end. I am jealous of your creativity and commitment to a project! Looks great!

[@katem1105]

Where is your cutting table?

[@OutfitRepeater]

Don’t have one; I just have a large cutting board I put on the floor

[@ohdani]

What a dream space 😍 love the MCR banner! Great job Melody. I am so inspired by your room.

[@OutfitRepeater]

thanks! haha the banner was a decoration from my birthday that I couldn't get rid of

[@anamae03]
