As we learned from Alice in Wonderland, ... 'all the best people are bonkers'. So let's be bonkers together. Thank you for another beautiful and inspiring video. Much love xx
I like the new arrangement, too. Gives you better flow. And, yes, all of your regulars (myself included) are “bonkers in the nicest possible way.” (big smile)
If the shelf doesn’t work, another idea would be to put a wall to wall bookcase behind the table. It will be perfect to set up all sorts of things even under the table and get stuff off the floor. IKEA has those cool cubbies that would work perfectly for you.
The snook looks great! Hang your large mirror (or get a cheap full length mirror) horizontally above your journal desk. The f.s. rule is you want to be able to see what’s coming your way. So happy moving furniture brought you positive energy.
In my humble oppinion, there's nothing wrong with being a little bonkers. In fact I have found it to be very helpful, especially when dealing with other bonker types. By the way, I like the new arrangement and hopefully it will be comfortable, inspiring, and productive for you.
I love the new arrangement. You could put a mirror above the desk to see what’s behind you. Command stick on hooks are fantastic for fairy lights an d mobiles. No more drilling! Xxx
I really love the changes you made as it looks comfy and cozy. You have more room to 💃🏼 dance a little! Don’t let the problems get you down, just tell your little negative voice you’ll think about it all “later” and hush. Smile, laugh and think of the people that make you happy then draw your beautiful fairies in beautiful gardens. Or write about it in your journal and even if you don’t feel like smiling, fake it and smile anyway…..it won’t be long before the smiles are real! From my mountain top in middle Tennessee where the hilltops 💋 the sky, I send you good thoughts and love, Fran
Bonkers :-) Table sits nicely in the corner - I was also thinking it would feel better there too...it's amazing what you can get done by just showing up. All the difficulties we go through are great opportunities for learning too. Thank you for sharing your journey.
I really like the table in its new position, there seems to be more space and it just flows better. Then as you come around the corner from the other section the day bed fit's that space much better. Doesn't feel as close to the oval office. I think it feels as if each space has a more defined role.
I thought I preferred the table where it was originally but then when you starting putting lights up it’s suddenly started to look like a proper comfy spot. Love it. I’m definitely encountering a lot of obstacles at the moment. Everything is feeling like hard work but I’m trying to ride the wave rather than fight it. This too shall pass and all that.
Hi Wendy, Been watching you from the very beginning but have not commented. But for some reason I was drawn to comment on this video :-) Put a mirror above your journaling table so that you can see what’s behind you. I think that would help tremendously with the feeling of having your back to the door even though it is around the corner. Mirrors help when it comes to feng shui. Thanks for all your wonderful videos, I have enjoyed each and everyone especially during Covid era. Watching from the United States. Take care, stay safe, Mary at Hart Lane Studio in California
SHOW UP... I needed those wise words today. It's the perfect way to deal with those difficult days; many good things can come from just showing up; you proved it here with all the wonderful things you got done by showing up on such a day. Thank you for sharing this great advice! Now about the subscribers; you do need those 100 thousand and I know in your case it has nothing to do with ego but the need to protect your channel, and I want to suggest a way to make this come true much faster. When you get to that number UA-cam will send you a silver coloured plaque acknowledging your passing that number of subscribers. So already from now reserve a visible spot where you will put it. Maybe it's not your style or ideal decoration but you can see it as the reminder of all that number of people who love you, admire you and support you. So come in every day and look at that empty space but in your mind see this object already standing there and feel inside of you what it represents , and feel great about it and grateful above all; this way it will manifest sooner. Good luck dear Wendy!
Sweet Wendy, I truly love the journaling table in the new spot against the far wall. You are left-handed, so the light is coming from the window to your right...so it makes perfect sense to put the table there and it opens up the space a lot more. If you are wondering about where you will put your lights ...once you have the shelf on the wall above the journaling desk, you mentioned that you want to have it quite high, then how about hanging the lights on and along the bottom of the shelf? Quite honestly I am in love with your studio space, it's lovely, airy, and bright. Yes, I am bonkers and loving every moment of it...it's a good kinda bonkers, so yes, let's be bonkers together :-) I am also an artist and have my off days (fibromyalgia), plus with everything going on in the world makes things really feel unsettling. My studio nook is in our bedroom and I absolutely love our cottage, so for me, it is extremely easy to become a hermit as it is my happy place and where I feel safe and loved. I worked full-time until January and since then I have been focussing on my artist's journey. I have realized on the 'off' days, that it is ok to have a under the covers day...or when I get up and my body especially doesn't feel great, I then get back into bed and say to myself, I will try again later. Strongs to you dearest Wendy...always remember, this too shall pass...just keep your focus on the light bright star. Much love, hugs and light to you and James. You two make an awesome team!
Hello, Wendy! I am like you: sometimes I feel I shouldn’t get out of the house. It’s one of those things I can’t explain. I feel that in that particular day or that particular moment, I should stay at home. And, many times, when I decide that is nonsense and I do get out, I end up regretting it and concluding that, in fact, I should have followed my instinct. I love to move things around the house. Not only because I like to change the ambience, but also because I like to look for the place where things make more sense or are more useful. Like yourself, I have to sit on the chair, sofa or even lay in bed to actually see if I like that piece of furniture in that particular place. I am going through a very difficult moment in my life (not an illness) and my house has been my refuge. I don’t feel like going out or see people. I need to cocoon, like you say. Thanks for all the suggestions and advice. By the way, may I ask why you didn’t put your art desk in front of the window? I have mine in front of my window and I love that, because I can stop once in a while and look outside. Besides I can open the window and feel the air (when possible, of course, but in Portugal the weather usually allows us to have the windows open for a long period of time). Anyway, I like your art table in that place better than the other. And the day bed looks great in there too. But ultimately it’s you who has to decide if you feel good like that. Thanks for keeping me company. See you soon ♥️🌈💙🌻💚🌸🧡⭐️💛🐚💗🌳❤️🌞🖤🍀💜✨
I considered under the window myself and I wondered if that would weigh that side of the room down too much having the bigger furniture on that side? If only we could see it without actually having to do all the heavy lifting and climbing over the table?! Thanks for the giggle Wendy! I know I needed that!!
@@lindadetloff3370 you’re right! I like to move things around and sometimes after all that lifting things up, I don’t like it and have to move it again 😂😂😂
The new layout looks amazing. I would put the mirror on the wall behind the table, maybe get some narrow shelves for under the window for more storage.
Hard as life can be, it is really helping me at the moment to get out into nature, listen to bird song, look at all the beautiful blossom, bluebells, Gods creation. It lifts me so much. I love pottering in my garden too.🌺🌳🌻🌹🐝🦋 It is lovely to see you progress with the studio. I thought that the journaling table looks good on the end wall but might also be nice under the window too. It's nice to have options isn't it?😊 I hope you all have a good week.
OMG I feel exactly like that today. I am staying in my 4 walls because tomorrow I must go out. Yes, the world is crazy these days and even somewhat unsafe. Enjoying the day communicating with my children (adults) and art journaling . Watching my favorites on UA-cam. 👍❤😀💐🙏
Loving the new set up, it makes your space look bigger, more cozy and inviting 😊 I've given myself permission to have a duvet day today. I've been running myself into the ground lately, so it's great to have this time to relax and recover. A step in the right direction ❤
You are so precious! I am a creative as well but I have suppressed lots of my feelings during my life. I'm learning from you how strengthening & helpful it is to face them & express them. Love & prosperity to you & a big hug & thank you for being who you are & letting us be with in your journey.
I love that you moved the art journaling table to the back. And the couch to the side. You can always get a little mirror for your wall above the art journaling table as a solution to having your back to the entry.
I love seeing the nesting process it makes me want to change my furniture around too. The sleeplessness and unsafe feelings have been very intense. I have been grounding as much as possible saying yes a lot to discomfort. I wanted to say thank you again because you have been a valuable teacher to me in recent weeks. I’m sure once your nest is settled a bit more other unsettled things will fall into place. Lots of love ❤️
Sending so much energy your way. It really is a challenging time for so many at the moment (I'll include myself in that as well!). Anyway, your nook and daybed are looking super lovely and I'm sure they will provide a little sanctuary and support for all those days when you leave your four walls.
Having it set up this way feels cozier, more welcoming. I like how the table fits the space perfectly. And sitting there it is just a slight turn to look out the window-verses having to turn all the way around before. For me I must always see an "out" to feel safe and comfortable. So that is my opinion. Hugs ❤️
It's been fun watching you and James in your new space! The place where you moved your art journal table is great! It makes that area look so much more spacious. I'd hang a tiny wind chime on the door. Then you'll always have a tinkly sound to tell you when someone is entering. I''d also hang a little mirror over your table so you don't have to turn around every time it tinkles.
I'm one of the suggestors! and I'm so happy that you tried this. The dynamic corner of the l shape is so softened by the low fabric and roundness of the day bed. Your back is not to the door at all there. It's Soo good and you can have the sun on the day bed on you!
greetings from idaho, usa, sweet lady ... i watch all your vids, i rarely comment but felt the urge with this one ... re: journal table placement and then feelings of wonky energies ... altho i am no feng shui expert, i understand that placement of a mirror can help your back-to-the-door hesitancy ... if you place a mirror in your niche, on the wall to the right of your small bulletin board, you can see what is behind you whenever you look up from your creating ... secondly (once again, i am no expert), many are feeling those energies and interruption of sleep patterns due to solar activity and planetary alignments & light bringing some negative issues to the forefront, so we can see (and hopefully "fix") ... anyway, you are full of fairy magic and you will be fine, or better than fine, as events play out ... special hello to james, i loved his expression after hanging your coat-hook-rack, you are so lucky to have each other ... p e a c e to you both ......
I totally understand having to sit in a place for a while before you’re sure it’s right. I like your new setup. You get good light for your journaling and also on the daybed. I love light, and need to have windows around me. Let the sunshine in…
I love the journaling table against the wall. It makes the space more open and airy but more cozy at the same time. You've now got the perfect, "pondering perch" with the daybed facing that beautiful window and all your dangly treasures and plants. You need a snuggly throw on the daybed for a possible nap on days where sleep is lacking. I love the vibe your studio sends to all of us. Beautiful!!!
Absolutely love the art journal nook, the lights really shape the space nicely. I'm not self employed but do feel the need to take a mental health day every now and then from my workplace.
For quite a while now I want to just stay indoors. I feel comfortable and safe. The world outside feels odd. It seems to be making me disorientated. Hard to explain... I would rather do a bit of crafting, reading and looking at your videos... There's some music you play in your video that's like a walz.. it reminds me of dancing with my dad... fond memories. Your studio is beautiful and I'm sure it will be perfect for you very soon. Things will just fall into the right place..💕
I love the journal table in it's new spot!! As soon as you moved it the energy in the room opened up. The daybed looks good in it's new spot as well...its a beautiful daybed 💖
I like the bed/table set up cuz you can lay in the bed to meditate/write in our journal and look out the window to reflect. Leave it like that! Above your bed and table add your favorite art/journal pages to set up happy/good vibes in that corner!
New layout gets a thumbs up from me. I was soooo relieved to hear that you have ''I want to stay at home'' days, feeling scared and insecure, I thought I was weird or something . . . . well, if I am you are too . . . hahahahaha. Thank you , big hug!
I just love the balance of the triangle of the day bed/journal desk/oval office. A triangle of work, rest and play available for whatever you need to keep your cup full and your light shining. I'd place the oval Office chair next to the day bed, so you could face the door and your painting area, but you need to find what is right for you. Thanks again for sharing and inspiring us. We all juggle to find balance, and it is reassuring to know we have that in common. Sending love and light your way.
I love the new set up! Looks perfect 😊🤗💖 being bonkers is the best way to be! Huge hugs, hope your sleep improves, so many of us feeling the same way. Huge hugs xxx
Love the table where it is now. Sitting with my back to a window feels almost worse than to a door for me. Having chronic migraine most days are worse for wear, so showing up for me means getting dressed and doing something around the house. Sometimes even just getting dressed and brushing my teeth. We have a dog, she helps alot because she needs walks at regular intervals. Looking forward to seeing you hanging plants 💚
Hello Wendy, i looove how you set up your artjournaling area and the day bed; it's harmonious and the room seems larger. You now deserve a good rest after all the energy you used to move all your stuf!! And please Wendy, don't worry about the day you post your video, it is so nice of you to do it regularly even when you are very tired.I send you loads of good vibes dear one, and i hope you'll sleep better.Take care!!
I don´t like to sit with my back to the door either, but somehow I love this way to arrange your journaling place, it looks cozy and harmonious and beautful! Maybe you could put the mirror on the right side of the journaling table or hang it on the wall, so you can see the reflexion of the rest of the room in it... 🤔
I love the Journaling Nook! I was going to suggest to you to put it against that wall as well so it would open that space more. It feels like there's more "room for thoughts" now!!! And the daybed centered there gives you a place to sit and ponder your painting space, your vlogging space, plants, and journaling nook!!!! It's your own "center of the universe" within your studio!!! It just feels so fresh and inspiring now! ❤
oh the switch is so much better, Wendy. the day bed needs to be across from your plant babies. the art table seemed to crowd out the bed. I think you'll love being able to be across from the light in the window. you could put a bookshelf above the bed, maybe more plants. you have a lovely nook now! I hope you like it this way!💗
Soooo much better! A mirror will fix the flow and the best advice is always “do what you can to move forward without moving backwards”…James is a peach and you are an inspiration…love the new space evolving and your “process” as you yourself evolve in these crazy times. Blessings all around.
Much love and Aloha to you dear Wendy as you navigate the obstacles.🙄 I too have had some set backs and an overload of issues to deal with at the same time within this past month...whew!😕 I was trying to get in better shape with a new exercise program and injured my hip, which has me laid up on ice for the last two weeks like a fish going to market!😆 As for your art table.... I prefer the new location...and like you I am "bonkers in the best way" as the location of chairs, beds, tables in my home only works if it feels right while sitting or sleeping there for some time. I hope the new location proves to be the right fit for you!🤞 Thank you for sharing your trepidation about going out in the world post-pandemic-lockdowns. To my huge surprise I believe I am suffering from the very same thing!😮 Your sharing has helped me to be gentler on myself about these strange feelings and unusual behaviors I'm experiencing. So thank you for that!💙🙏 Sending much love and plenny Aloha across the many miles...until next week, take care. 😘🌈🌺💫💖🥰
I love the change. I think you and I are cut from the same cloth and that's exactly how I arrange and rearrange.. by feel. I love how the change opened the space but also made it feel more cosy. I can see you in the day bed facing different directions depending on the day and it feels a beautiful spot for your fairies to watch over your shoulder and dance in the sunlight.
Wonderful new look to make it look more spacious. Agree with previous comments about needing a mirror so you can see what is behind you, one that is maybe tilted so it won’t interfere with your camera work. James, two shelves please. One to lift the items that are at the back of the table. One high up to display Wendy’s gorgeous art. Have a lovely day.
Thank you for walking the walk and putting your needs first. I might not be alone to realize since the kids are up and on their own, I let Work, others, and self imposed “stuff” prevent me from truly focusing on my own mental and physical well-being. So I just stopped the crazy train. You ,and all the FOW (fans of Wendy),are an inspiration.🌞🌞🌞 Today’s the day to do a few things that bring me peace, comfort, and beauty. Then to the Art Journal.
That's such a beautiful journalling nook. Loving the day bed too...perfect for a cuppa and gazing out of the window. Fairy lights add so much positivity to a room. I have them all over the house and they lift my mood 😊
So much better Wendy, it opens up the room and when sitting on the day bed you're looking at plants rather than the studio! A place to rest, reflect and take time out!
The journaling table looks so much better against the back wall of the nook. Plus, it gives you a place to slide your large canvas. The day bed looks better in the new location. You can look out the window from the day bed. The rounded edges of the day bed are better so that when you enter the nook you wouldn't run into the sharp edge of your table with your hip (in the old position). You could hang some fabric (maybe some gold print to go with your day bed) using zelcro from underneath the table to hide some of your boxes on the end of the table where you won't be sliding your chair in. Your space is turning out so well.
I totally agree….. I also have days where I shouldn’t or don’t want to leave the house. Sometimes when you push yourself to, it works but sometimes everything goes wrong and you regret it or you’re glad you did as it made you feel better but on the days you’re really not feeling it, stay home, protect and look after yourself. Love the lights in the ‘nook’ looks nice and cosy.
Love ❤️ the Art Journaling Table against that back wall with the daybed on the side wall. The whole snook works for me also because of the window and how you've set up your plants there. It is definitely a cozy corner while the rest of the studio is a "work" area.
Wendy, I have discovered the necessity of having wheels/coasters on most studio furniture. Makes things so much easier. Some projects take up more room, or keeps supplies close at hand. A small table can be rolled out of the way and have other supplies rolled in.
I like it with the seat facing the window and the table on the far wall. It looks neat and uncluttered and you face all your plant babies when your resting.
I love the new layout. 😍 It seemed like the table was blocking the nook before. Now it looks opened up. You can sit on the day bed and look out the window. 🌻💜👍
I joined your Patreon as a Pocket supporter just because you said you were 'bonkers" and I too believe the BEST people are bonkers! Thanks for spreading your particular brand of light and goodness into our at times dark, dank, and hopeless day to day drudgery. Staying bright, Wendy! No matter what. 💕💕💕💕💕💕
I also think the new setup is better. Your sweet daybed was buried down in that corner. You need a resting place that allows you to soak up all the creative energy. Now the journaling nook soars up that back wall and creative energy rolls back out to the rest of the room. Love your honesty.
I love the table where you moved it and adding a shelf or book case on top of the table and hanging plants is a great idea. Might I suggest a second hand rug in front of the day bed and the long mirror hung long ways over the bed and a large painting or grouping of your paintings over the mirror (to show case them) which would cozy it up and make that space it's own. You could also add some shelves in the window to add some more plants and a colored glass bottles to reflect the light and you could start some plants in them for more plants! This space is really coming along and I can't wait to see what you do with it! I'm so excited for you!!!!!!
Love the journaling desk in the nook. A little mirror on your desk or the wall above it will allow you to view the room behind you when you sit at your desk. That might solve the feng shui issue about having your back to the door. Well done so far with your progress!!!
Sweet Wendy your energy flow is much improved with the journaling table against the wall and the day bed where you have it now. A narrow mirror in the wall off center to your chair would open the space and allow you to see behind you. Being it’s a nook, your back is not really to the door. I love the lights too. Your plants look amazing and your little special items hanging down so pretty. I would add a pretty throw to the day bed which is a beautiful piece. I pray your week is filled with promise, peace, creative energy . I too know what not sleeping feels like. Hello to James and you are both so beautiful together. We all wish we had a James in our lives. Peace, love and softest hugs to you both. ☮️🧚♀️🧚🏻♂️🧚🏻🌼🍀✨🌸💐🙏❤️🤗😘
I LOVE the new placement of the art journal table and daybed! The rounded headboard of the daybed near the oval office table allow for a nice movement of energy. The sharp edges of the table are no longer jutting out into the space. I'm not a Feng Shui expert, but that feels like good movement of Chi there. As others have mentioned, a mirror on or near your art journaling table positioned in such a way that you can see over your shoulder when you're working could be a great fix. At my old job, I had a cubicle where people could sneak up behind me and startle me (as I get VERY engrossed in my work sometimes). I just had a small 7" cosmetic mirror on a pedestal that could be tilted just right so that I could see who/what was behind me. I love how your studio is taking shape. I look forward to watching its evolution. Love the lights and plants and now I'm inspired to overhaul my creative space. I ALSO have to sit in all the different places in the room when I'm rearranging things. At least HALF of my process is the looking and the contemplating of it all. Do you think James could do some long-distance DIY training for my hubby? ;-) Love, love, love your channel. I feel like I have a dear friend in the UK whenever I'm watching and sharing a cuppa. Waving from near Chicago! XOXO
Wendy you could put a mirror up on the wall so that when your back is turned to your art journaling table you could see what's behind you. I don't really like my back to a big open space like that. And actually you could put a mirror on the wall so when you are on your day bed you could see the entrance door if placed in the right space. I love your new space and your beautiful window and plants etc. I have plants in my studio too and it's just so nice! Love from Arizona❤❤❤
I agree that your art journaling nook looks cosy and peaceful now. Personally, I like to be able to "turn my back on the world" to get grounded in to my own thoughts and creative zone, so I wouldn't worry about the door around the corner.💗
Love the new layout! What about a little rug- a cheap outdoor one with a nice pattern- in front of the daybed to make it cozy, but resistant to messy art projects ? And a lightweight folding screen to make that area even cozier, and visually block out the other areas of your studio that are still under construction? It might give you a visual respite from always seeing the parts that still need to be organized.
With your journalling table facing the wall, for Feng Shui you might want to put a mirror up on the wall so you can see behind you? I like the table in it's new arrangement, it looks more spacious. I love the way you placed the string of lights. It looks cozy that way. If you put shelves over the table it's going to be difficult to get anything on and off them BUT if you place shelves to the left of the table you'll have easy access to everything AND able to keep the lights where they are.
I love the table moved to the back wall. You also have the window easily to turn your chair toward. Less chance of distraction while working on the art journal, too. And the natural light from the window will not be blocked by your body when you are working there. 💕
The art journalling desk has found its home. It was made for that space and looks great there. I agree with other commentors who say to put up a mirror, I like the idea of your large mirror hung horizontally. You could also tie a small bell to the main door handle to alert you to a visitor. Hope you are feeling brighter. Lots of love xxx
I like where the journaling table is. Here's some suggestions, Hide the boxes or paper reams that are under your table maybe move them under the daybed. How about a cute table lamp, that will warm up the writing area, and better for your eyes and there won't be a shadow. The shelf above would be great, you can add plants on it to hang down, and add some art work and knick-knacks on there too. Just a few ideas.....I do love your voice and all your videos, oh yeah and your wonderful art work.
I love the lights above the table and also think perhaps a mirror on the right hand side would be nice to reflect the light, plants and of course the rest of the room. I can see lots of comfy pillows on the daybed and a cute little side table to put a cup of tea on it. I love the tiny shelf you have and want one myself to put plant babies on in interesting containers and display tea cups I inherited from my husband's Nana. You make me want to cozy up my art area too and buy lights! Love you Wendy.
I think having the art journal table in the nook eliminates some of the distractions in the room and gives more focus to your work. It also seems very cozy. Thank you for showing up even when you didn't feel like it, you gave us a bit of much needed push❤
I think that having the journaling table in that spot makes it a very inviting space especially with the lighting you put up and your idea of a shelf and plants …your new studio is so bright and lovely. I have now watched all your videos and am caught up to date..loved them all and found them all very inspiring..thanks!
Maybe the obstacles are a sign to slow down a bit with your decisions about the lay out of your studio. The right way will come through when the time is right. As you say….’ponder, ponder’. I agree with everyone that has mentioned putting a mirror up on the wall of your art journaling table. I do like where you put your art journaling table. More fairy lights would be great too! Well done for carrying on when you are feel tired and a bit out of sorts! I find it all to easy to stay in my safety of home lately as well. Thank you for the reminder and inspiration to carry on!💛🧚💛
Art Journaling in the nook looks wonderful from here!!! Much more energetic flow in my mind!! Hope you’re enjoying. We love that you share your thoughts with us. Big hugs Wendy 🕊
I love where you put your art journaling table. I find it looks better there than where you originally put it. The nook with the fairy lights looks and feels cozy. And a previous comment said to put up a mirror on that wall so you can actually see behind you is also a good idea. And sitting on the daybed you can look at your window with all the little dangling things and plants... it's a perfect little cozy nook! 😍
Love the art journaling nook. It looks cosy and like you can create the energy for art journaling easier in that nook. The lights are lovely and add to the cosiness. I totally understand wanting to stay home in your comfort zone. I can feel pretty agoraphobic at times and it’s so hard to push yourself, but more often than not you feel better for it. Good for you Wendy. You did a great job 😘 sending love and blessings to you. 💜
Hello dear girl, I had this same thought about the mirror as the previous comment said. The mirror on the opposite end of the shelves will give the illusion of even more space. Plus you’ll feel more secure knowing you can look behind you. Always keep your door locked and play serene music. I do this and it helps me focus with the right mood. A sweet lamp at the right corner by the window will give even more ambience and extra light on your work. Be blessed in your new space💜
Whenever you have an entrance behind you, use a mirror to reflect what is behind you. Love the new setup.
i mentioned this also, before i saw ur comment ... i agree ....
I was thinking the same ☺️
Great idea!
I was coming to the comments to say the same thing!
@@lisaheckler7629 So was I!
Love the art journaling table against the far wall with the daybed across from the window…and it makes the room look larger. 😊🌷☘️
I think the art journaling table in the nook location makes the space seem more open and peaceful. I like the new location very much!
As we learned from Alice in Wonderland, ... 'all the best people are bonkers'. So let's be bonkers together. Thank you for another beautiful and inspiring video. Much love xx
Hahaha I love it!
I like the new arrangement, too. Gives you better flow. And, yes, all of your regulars (myself included) are “bonkers in the nicest possible way.” (big smile)
If the shelf doesn’t work, another idea would be to put a wall to wall bookcase behind the table. It will be perfect to set up all sorts of things even under the table and get stuff off the floor. IKEA has those cool cubbies that would work perfectly for you.
The snook looks great! Hang your large mirror (or get a cheap full length mirror) horizontally above your journal desk. The f.s. rule is you want to be able to see what’s coming your way. So happy moving furniture brought you positive energy.
I love the new layout! My energy has been low. But like you pointed out. Show up. Yes!
Today was an ‘I need a friend’ day and an Unexpected Gypsy did the job! 💖✨💝💫💞
Loved seeing James’ big smile at the end. 😊 THANK YOU ☺️
Love the journal nook change. Put a bell at the door so it jingles when someone enters. Love the new studio, keep in balance 💕😉❣️
In my humble oppinion, there's nothing wrong with being a little bonkers. In fact I have found it to be very helpful, especially when dealing with other bonker types. By the way, I like the new arrangement and hopefully it will be comfortable, inspiring, and productive for you.
I love the new arrangement. You could put a mirror above the desk to see what’s behind you. Command stick on hooks are fantastic for fairy lights an d mobiles. No more drilling! Xxx
I really love the changes you made as it looks comfy and cozy. You have more room to 💃🏼 dance a little! Don’t let the problems get you down, just tell your little negative voice you’ll think about it all “later” and hush. Smile, laugh and think of the people that make you happy then draw your beautiful fairies in beautiful gardens. Or write about it in your journal and even if you don’t feel like smiling, fake it and smile anyway…..it won’t be long before the smiles are real! From my mountain top in middle Tennessee where the hilltops 💋 the sky, I send you good thoughts and love, Fran
Bonkers :-) Table sits nicely in the corner - I was also thinking it would feel better there too...it's amazing what you can get done by just showing up. All the difficulties we go through are great opportunities for learning too. Thank you for sharing your journey.
The new layout is lovely! ❤️ You’re doin great in there!
I really like the table in its new position, there seems to be more space and it just flows better. Then as you come around the corner from the other section the day bed fit's that space much better. Doesn't feel as close to the oval office. I think it feels as if each space has a more defined role.
Love the journaling table there and the daybed….ahhh just dreamy.🙏🏻💜💐
I thought I preferred the table where it was originally but then when you starting putting lights up it’s suddenly started to look like a proper comfy spot. Love it. I’m definitely encountering a lot of obstacles at the moment. Everything is feeling like hard work but I’m trying to ride the wave rather than fight it. This too shall pass and all that.
So pleased you moved the table to the end, the flow feels so much better x
Hi Wendy,
Been watching you from the very beginning but have not commented. But for some reason I was drawn to comment on this video :-) Put a mirror above your journaling table so that you can see what’s behind you. I think that would help tremendously with the feeling of having your back to the door even though it is around the corner. Mirrors help when it comes to feng shui.
Thanks for all your wonderful videos, I have enjoyed each and everyone especially during Covid era.
Watching from the United States. Take care, stay safe,

SHOW UP... I needed those wise words today. It's the perfect way to deal with those difficult days; many good things can come from just showing up; you proved it here with all the wonderful things you got done by showing up on such a day. Thank you for sharing this great advice!
Now about the subscribers; you do need those 100 thousand and I know in your case it has nothing to do with ego but the need to protect your channel, and I want to suggest a way to make this come true much faster. When you get to that number UA-cam will send you a silver coloured plaque acknowledging your passing that number of subscribers. So already from now reserve a visible spot where you will put it. Maybe it's not your style or ideal decoration but you can see it as the reminder of all that number of people who love you, admire you and support you. So come in every day and look at that empty space but in your mind see this object already standing there and feel inside of you what it represents , and feel great about it and grateful above all; this way it will manifest sooner. Good luck dear Wendy!
Sweet Wendy, I truly love the journaling table in the new spot against the far wall. You are left-handed, so the light is coming from the window to your right...so it makes perfect sense to put the table there and it opens up the space a lot more. If you are wondering about where you will put your lights ...once you have the shelf on the wall above the journaling desk, you mentioned that you want to have it quite high, then how about hanging the lights on and along the bottom of the shelf? Quite honestly I am in love with your studio space, it's lovely, airy, and bright. Yes, I am bonkers and loving every moment of it...it's a good kinda bonkers, so yes, let's be bonkers together :-) I am also an artist and have my off days (fibromyalgia), plus with everything going on in the world makes things really feel unsettling. My studio nook is in our bedroom and I absolutely love our cottage, so for me, it is extremely easy to become a hermit as it is my happy place and where I feel safe and loved. I worked full-time until January and since then I have been focussing on my artist's journey. I have realized on the 'off' days, that it is ok to have a under the covers day...or when I get up and my body especially doesn't feel great, I then get back into bed and say to myself, I will try again later. Strongs to you dearest Wendy...always remember, this too shall pass...just keep your focus on the light bright star. Much love, hugs and light to you and James. You two make an awesome team!
Hello, Wendy! I am like you: sometimes I feel I shouldn’t get out of the house. It’s one of those things I can’t explain. I feel that in that particular day or that particular moment, I should stay at home. And, many times, when I decide that is nonsense and I do get out, I end up regretting it and concluding that, in fact, I should have followed my instinct.
I love to move things around the house. Not only because I like to change the ambience, but also because I like to look for the place where things make more sense or are more useful. Like yourself, I have to sit on the chair, sofa or even lay in bed to actually see if I like that piece of furniture in that particular place.
I am going through a very difficult moment in my life (not an illness) and my house has been my refuge. I don’t feel like going out or see people. I need to cocoon, like you say. Thanks for all the suggestions and advice.
By the way, may I ask why you didn’t put your art desk in front of the window?
I have mine in front of my window and I love that, because I can stop once in a while and look outside. Besides I can open the window and feel the air (when possible, of course, but in Portugal the weather usually allows us to have the windows open for a long period of time). Anyway, I like your art table in that place better than the other. And the day bed looks great in there too. But ultimately it’s you who has to decide if you feel good like that.
Thanks for keeping me company. See you soon ♥️🌈💙🌻💚🌸🧡⭐️💛🐚💗🌳❤️🌞🖤🍀💜✨
I considered under the window myself and I wondered if that would weigh that side of the room down too much having the bigger furniture on that side? If only we could see it without actually having to do all the heavy lifting and climbing over the table?! Thanks for the giggle Wendy! I know I needed that!!
@@lindadetloff3370 you’re right! I like to move things around and sometimes after all that lifting things up, I don’t like it and have to move it again 😂😂😂
Love the new layout, opens up the space and someone can sit on the daybed while you are working, also you can look out the window from the bed.❣️
That's what I thought, too. How nice it would be to sit on that little bed with a cup of tea and look out the window!
The new layout looks amazing. I would put the mirror on the wall behind the table, maybe get some narrow shelves for under the window for more storage.
Hard as life can be, it is really helping me at the moment to get out into nature, listen to bird song, look at all the beautiful blossom, bluebells, Gods creation. It lifts me so much. I love pottering in my garden too.🌺🌳🌻🌹🐝🦋 It is lovely to see you progress with the studio. I thought that the journaling table looks good on the end wall but might also be nice under the window too. It's nice to have options isn't it?😊 I hope you all have a good week.
OMG I feel exactly like that today. I am staying in my 4 walls because tomorrow I must go out. Yes, the world is crazy these days and even somewhat unsafe. Enjoying the day communicating with my children (adults) and art journaling . Watching my favorites on UA-cam. 👍❤😀💐🙏
Loving the new set up, it makes your space look bigger, more cozy and inviting 😊
I've given myself permission to have a duvet day today. I've been running myself into the ground lately, so it's great to have this time to relax and recover. A step in the right direction ❤
You are so precious! I am a creative as well but I have suppressed lots of my feelings during my life. I'm learning from you how strengthening & helpful it is to face them & express them. Love & prosperity to you & a big hug & thank you for being who you are & letting us be with in your journey.
I love that you moved the art journaling table to the back. And the couch to the side. You can always get a little mirror for your wall above the art journaling table as a solution to having your back to the entry.
I love seeing the nesting process it makes me want to change my furniture around too. The sleeplessness and unsafe feelings have been very intense. I have been grounding as much as possible saying yes a lot to discomfort. I wanted to say thank you again because you have been a valuable teacher to me in recent weeks. I’m sure once your nest is settled a bit more other unsettled things will fall into place. Lots of love ❤️
Sending so much energy your way. It really is a challenging time for so many at the moment (I'll include myself in that as well!). Anyway, your nook and daybed are looking super lovely and I'm sure they will provide a little sanctuary and support for all those days when you leave your four walls.
Having it set up this way feels cozier, more welcoming. I like how the table fits the space perfectly. And sitting there it is just a slight turn to look out the window-verses having to turn all the way around before. For me I must always see an "out" to feel safe and comfortable. So that is my opinion. Hugs ❤️
It's been fun watching you and James in your new space! The place where you moved your art journal table is great! It makes that area look so much more spacious. I'd hang a tiny wind chime on the door. Then you'll always have a tinkly sound to tell you when someone is entering. I''d also hang a little mirror over your table so you don't have to turn around every time it tinkles.
Love, love, love the journal table there much better. ❤️
I'm one of the suggestors! and I'm so happy that you tried this. The dynamic corner of the l shape is so softened by the low fabric and roundness of the day bed. Your back is not to the door at all there. It's Soo good and you can have the sun on the day bed on you!
I love the new arrangement! It's funny how even small arrangements can make a room look so different!
greetings from idaho, usa, sweet lady ... i watch all your vids, i rarely comment but felt the urge with this one ... re: journal table placement and then feelings of wonky energies ...
altho i am no feng shui expert, i understand that placement of a mirror can help your back-to-the-door hesitancy ... if you place a mirror in your niche, on the wall to the right of your small bulletin board, you can see what is behind you whenever you look up from your creating ... secondly (once again, i am no expert), many are feeling those energies and interruption of sleep patterns due to solar activity and planetary alignments & light bringing some negative issues to the forefront, so we can see (and hopefully "fix") ... anyway, you are full of fairy magic and you will be fine, or better than fine, as events play out ... special hello to james, i loved his expression after hanging your coat-hook-rack, you are so lucky to have each other ... p e a c e to you both ......
I totally understand having to sit in a place for a while before you’re sure it’s right. I like your new setup. You get good light for your journaling and also on the daybed. I love light, and need to have windows around me. Let the sunshine in…
I love the journaling table against the wall. It makes the space more open and airy but more cozy at the same time. You've now got the perfect, "pondering perch" with the daybed facing that beautiful window and all your dangly treasures and plants. You need a snuggly throw on the daybed for a possible nap on days where sleep is lacking. I love the vibe your studio sends to all of us. Beautiful!!!
Absolutely love the art journal nook, the lights really shape the space nicely. I'm not self employed but do feel the need to take a mental health day every now and then from my workplace.
Love the new set up! And I feel the “duvet day” thing oh so much!!
For quite a while now I want to just stay indoors. I feel comfortable and safe. The world outside feels odd. It seems to be making me disorientated. Hard to explain... I would rather do a bit of crafting, reading and looking at your videos...
There's some music you play in your video that's like a walz.. it reminds me of dancing with my dad... fond memories.
Your studio is beautiful and I'm sure it will be perfect for you very soon. Things will just fall into the right place..💕
Wendy it looks so cozy and creative - the fairy lights just give it the extra but of magic! ⭐️💕
I like the new arrangement with the art journaling table in the nook . The daybed looks so comfy -- perfect for pondering!
I love the journal table in it's new spot!! As soon as you moved it the energy in the room opened up. The daybed looks good in it's new spot as well...its a beautiful daybed 💖
I like the bed/table set up cuz you can lay in the bed to meditate/write in our journal and look out the window to reflect. Leave it like that! Above your bed and table add your favorite art/journal pages to set up happy/good vibes in that corner!
New layout gets a thumbs up from me. I was soooo relieved to hear that you have ''I want to stay at home'' days, feeling scared and insecure, I thought I was weird or something . . . . well, if I am you are too . . . hahahahaha. Thank you , big hug!
I just love the balance of the triangle of the day bed/journal desk/oval office. A triangle of work, rest and play available for whatever you need to keep your cup full and your light shining. I'd place the oval Office chair next to the day bed, so you could face the door and your painting area, but you need to find what is right for you. Thanks again for sharing and inspiring us. We all juggle to find balance, and it is reassuring to know we have that in common. Sending love and light your way.
I’m definitely bonkers in the best way 😃 Love the new layout!
I love the new set up! Looks perfect 😊🤗💖 being bonkers is the best way to be! Huge hugs, hope your sleep improves, so many of us feeling the same way. Huge hugs xxx
Love the table where it is now. Sitting with my back to a window feels almost worse than to a door for me. Having chronic migraine most days are worse for wear, so showing up for me means getting dressed and doing something around the house. Sometimes even just getting dressed and brushing my teeth. We have a dog, she helps alot because she needs walks at regular intervals. Looking forward to seeing you hanging plants 💚
Hello Wendy, i looove how you set up your artjournaling area and the day bed; it's harmonious and the room seems larger. You now deserve a good rest after all the energy you used to move all your stuf!! And please Wendy, don't worry about the day you post your video, it is so nice of you to do it regularly even when you are very tired.I send you loads of good vibes dear one, and i hope you'll sleep better.Take care!!
I don´t like to sit with my back to the door either, but somehow I love this way to arrange your journaling place, it looks cozy and harmonious and beautful! Maybe you could put the mirror on the right side of the journaling table or hang it on the wall, so you can see the reflexion of the rest of the room in it... 🤔
You can get a mirror placed on the wall or desk to enable you to see behind you.
I love the Journaling Nook! I was going to suggest to you to put it against that wall as well so it would open that space more. It feels like there's more "room for thoughts" now!!! And the daybed centered there gives you a place to sit and ponder your painting space, your vlogging space, plants, and journaling nook!!!! It's your own "center of the universe" within your studio!!! It just feels so fresh and inspiring now! ❤
oh the switch is so much better, Wendy. the day bed needs to be across from your plant babies. the art table seemed to crowd out the bed. I think you'll love being able to be across from the light in the window. you could put a bookshelf above the bed, maybe more plants. you have a lovely nook now! I hope you like it this way!💗
Soooo much better! A mirror will fix the flow and the best advice is always “do what you can to move forward without moving backwards”…James is a peach and you are an inspiration…love the new space evolving and your “process” as you yourself evolve in these crazy times. Blessings all around.
Much love and Aloha to you dear Wendy as you navigate the obstacles.🙄 I too have had some set backs and an overload of issues to deal with at the same time within this past month...whew!😕 I was trying to get in better shape with a new exercise program and injured my hip, which has me laid up on ice for the last two weeks like a fish going to market!😆 As for your art table.... I prefer the new location...and like you I am "bonkers in the best way" as the location of chairs, beds, tables in my home only works if it feels right while sitting or sleeping there for some time. I hope the new location proves to be the right fit for you!🤞 Thank you for sharing your trepidation about going out in the world post-pandemic-lockdowns. To my huge surprise I believe I am suffering from the very same thing!😮 Your sharing has helped me to be gentler on myself about these strange feelings and unusual behaviors I'm experiencing. So thank you for that!💙🙏 Sending much love and plenny Aloha across the many miles...until next week, take care. 😘🌈🌺💫💖🥰
Love the set up of the Art Journaling table. It certainly is a Retrograde cycle isn't it---frustrating things happening all around.
I love the change. I think you and I are cut from the same cloth and that's exactly how I arrange and rearrange.. by feel.
I love how the change opened the space but also made it feel more cosy. I can see you in the day bed facing different directions depending on the day and it feels a beautiful spot for your fairies to watch over your shoulder and dance in the sunlight.
Wonderful new look to make it look more spacious. Agree with previous comments about needing a mirror so you can see what is behind you, one that is maybe tilted so it won’t interfere with your camera work. James, two shelves please. One to lift the items that are at the back of the table. One high up to display Wendy’s gorgeous art. Have a lovely day.
A mirror! That is how the Feng Shui will work. That way you are aware of your entire space. Love your process. Thank you.
Thank you for walking the walk and putting your needs first. I might not be alone to realize since the kids are up and on their own, I let Work, others, and self imposed “stuff” prevent me from truly focusing on my own mental and physical well-being.
So I just stopped the crazy train. You ,and all the FOW (fans of Wendy),are an inspiration.🌞🌞🌞
Today’s the day to do a few things that bring me peace, comfort, and beauty. Then to the Art Journal.
That's such a beautiful journalling nook. Loving the day bed too...perfect for a cuppa and gazing out of the window. Fairy lights add so much positivity to a room. I have them all over the house and they lift my mood 😊
So much better Wendy, it opens up the room and when sitting on the day bed you're looking at plants rather than the studio! A place to rest, reflect and take time out!
The journaling table looks so much better against the back wall of the nook. Plus, it gives you a place to slide your large canvas. The day bed looks better in the new location. You can look out the window from the day bed. The rounded edges of the day bed are better so that when you enter the nook you wouldn't run into the sharp edge of your table with your hip (in the old position). You could hang some fabric (maybe some gold print to go with your day bed) using zelcro from underneath the table to hide some of your boxes on the end of the table where you won't be sliding your chair in. Your space is turning out so well.
I totally agree….. I also have days where I shouldn’t or don’t want to leave the house. Sometimes when you push yourself to, it works but sometimes everything goes wrong and you regret it or you’re glad you did as it made you feel better but on the days you’re really not feeling it, stay home, protect and look after yourself. Love the lights in the ‘nook’ looks nice and cosy.
Love ❤️ the Art Journaling Table against that back wall with the daybed on the side wall. The whole snook works for me also because of the window and how you've set up your plants there.
It is definitely a cozy corner while the rest of the studio is a "work" area.
Wendy, I have discovered the necessity of having wheels/coasters on most studio furniture. Makes things so much easier. Some projects take up more room, or keeps supplies close at hand. A small table can be rolled out of the way and have other supplies rolled in.
Yes to the new arrangement of your studio. And yes to me being bonkers. 💞 I love your channel. 💌🖌️☕🌷🌿🕊️
Love the table against the far wall! Day bed facing window! (As at the end of your video).
I like it with the seat facing the window and the table on the far wall. It looks neat and uncluttered and you face all your plant babies when your resting.
I love the new layout. 😍 It seemed like the table was blocking the nook before. Now it looks opened up. You can sit on the day bed and look out the window. 🌻💜👍
Yes! The Journalling Table looks much better against that back wall and your Daybed will be lovely to sit on opposite your window ❤️
you have a lovely space, so inspiring to me. and the table seems good where it is, better than the other way round.
I joined your Patreon as a Pocket supporter just because you said you were 'bonkers" and I too believe the BEST people are bonkers! Thanks for spreading your particular brand of light and goodness into our at times dark, dank, and hopeless day to day drudgery. Staying bright, Wendy! No matter what. 💕💕💕💕💕💕
I also think the new setup is better. Your sweet daybed was buried down in that corner. You need a resting place that allows you to soak up all the creative energy. Now the journaling nook soars up that back wall and creative energy rolls back out to the rest of the room. Love your honesty.
I love the table where you moved it and adding a shelf or book case on top of the table and hanging plants is a great idea. Might I suggest a second hand rug in front of the day bed and the long mirror hung long ways over the bed and a large painting or grouping of your paintings over the mirror (to show case them) which would cozy it up and make that space it's own. You could also add some shelves in the window to add some more plants and a colored glass bottles to reflect the light and you could start some plants in them for more plants! This space is really coming along and I can't wait to see what you do with it! I'm so excited for you!!!!!!
Love the journaling desk in the nook. A little mirror on your desk or the wall above it will allow you to view the room behind you when you sit at your desk. That might solve the feng shui issue about having your back to the door. Well done so far with your progress!!!
Sweet Wendy your energy flow is much improved with the journaling table against the wall and the day bed where you have it now. A narrow mirror in the wall off center to your chair would open the space and allow you to see behind you. Being it’s a nook, your back is not really to the door. I love the lights too.
Your plants look amazing and your little special items hanging down so pretty. I would add a pretty throw to the day bed which is a beautiful piece.
I pray your week is filled with promise, peace, creative energy . I too know what not sleeping feels like.
Hello to James and you are both so beautiful together. We all wish we had a James in our lives.
Peace, love and softest hugs to you both. ☮️🧚♀️🧚🏻♂️🧚🏻🌼🍀✨🌸💐🙏❤️🤗😘
I LOVE the new placement of the art journal table and daybed! The rounded headboard of the daybed near the oval office table allow for a nice movement of energy. The sharp edges of the table are no longer jutting out into the space. I'm not a Feng Shui expert, but that feels like good movement of Chi there. As others have mentioned, a mirror on or near your art journaling table positioned in such a way that you can see over your shoulder when you're working could be a great fix. At my old job, I had a cubicle where people could sneak up behind me and startle me (as I get VERY engrossed in my work sometimes). I just had a small 7" cosmetic mirror on a pedestal that could be tilted just right so that I could see who/what was behind me. I love how your studio is taking shape. I look forward to watching its evolution. Love the lights and plants and now I'm inspired to overhaul my creative space. I ALSO have to sit in all the different places in the room when I'm rearranging things. At least HALF of my process is the looking and the contemplating of it all. Do you think James could do some long-distance DIY training for my hubby? ;-) Love, love, love your channel. I feel like I have a dear friend in the UK whenever I'm watching and sharing a cuppa. Waving from near Chicago! XOXO
Love everything you changed today, seems a better layout. Take care, rest and thanks for the inspiration!
Wendy you could put a mirror up on the wall so that when your back is turned to your art journaling table you could see what's behind you. I don't really like my back to a big open space like that. And actually you could put a mirror on the wall so when you are on your day bed you could see the entrance door if placed in the right space. I love your new space and your beautiful window and plants etc. I have plants in my studio too and it's just so nice!
Love from Arizona❤❤❤
I agree that your art journaling nook looks cosy and peaceful now. Personally, I like to be able to "turn my back on the world" to get grounded in to my own thoughts and creative zone, so I wouldn't worry about the door around the corner.💗
Hello Wendy! Hope you get settled soon in your beautiful studio. I miss watching you create your gorgeous art. Hugs and friendship to you from Texas!🌷
Love the new layout! What about a little rug- a cheap outdoor one with a nice pattern- in front of the daybed to make it cozy, but resistant to messy art projects ? And a lightweight folding screen to make that area even cozier, and visually block out the other areas of your studio that are still under construction? It might give you a visual respite from always seeing the parts that still need to be organized.
With your journalling table facing the wall, for Feng Shui you might want to put a mirror up on the wall so you can see behind you?
I like the table in it's new arrangement, it looks more spacious. I love the way you placed the string of lights. It looks cozy that way. If you put shelves over the table it's going to be difficult to get anything on and off them BUT if you place shelves to the left of the table you'll have easy access to everything AND able to keep the lights where they are.
I love the table moved to the back wall. You also have the window easily to turn your chair toward. Less chance of distraction while working on the art journal, too. And the natural light from the window will not be blocked by your body when you are working there. 💕
The art journalling desk has found its home. It was made for that space and looks great there. I agree with other commentors who say to put up a mirror, I like the idea of your large mirror hung horizontally. You could also tie a small bell to the main door handle to alert you to a visitor. Hope you are feeling brighter. Lots of love xxx
I like where the journaling table is. Here's some suggestions, Hide the boxes or paper reams that are under your table maybe move them under the daybed. How about a cute table lamp, that will warm up the writing area, and better for your eyes and there won't be a shadow. The shelf above would be great, you can add plants on it to hang down, and add some art work and knick-knacks on there too. Just a few ideas.....I do love your voice and all your videos, oh yeah and your wonderful art work.
I love the lights above the table and also think perhaps a mirror on the right hand side would be nice to reflect the light, plants and of course the rest of the room. I can see lots of comfy pillows on the daybed and a cute little side table to put a cup of tea on it. I love the tiny shelf you have and want one myself to put plant babies on in interesting containers and display tea cups I inherited from my husband's Nana. You make me want to cozy up my art area too and buy lights! Love you Wendy.
I think having the art journal table in the nook eliminates some of the distractions in the room and gives more focus to your work. It also seems very cozy. Thank you for showing up even when you didn't feel like it, you gave us a bit of much needed push❤
I think that having the journaling table in that spot makes it a very inviting space especially with the lighting you put up and your idea of a shelf and plants …your new studio is so bright and lovely. I have now watched all your videos and am caught up to date..loved them all and found them all very inspiring..thanks!
Maybe the obstacles are a sign to slow down a bit with your decisions about the lay out of your studio. The right way will come through when the time is right. As you say….’ponder, ponder’. I agree with everyone that has mentioned putting a mirror up on the wall of your art journaling table. I do like where you put your art journaling table. More fairy lights would be great too! Well done for carrying on when you are feel tired and a bit out of sorts! I find it all to easy to stay in my safety of home lately as well. Thank you for the reminder and inspiration to carry on!💛🧚💛
Art Journaling in the nook looks wonderful from here!!! Much more energetic flow in my mind!! Hope you’re enjoying. We love that you share your thoughts with us. Big hugs Wendy 🕊
The nook is lovely and calm. It feels like beauty in that corner and the day bed is almost perfect too
I love where you put your art journaling table. I find it looks better there than where you originally put it. The nook with the fairy lights looks and feels cozy. And a previous comment said to put up a mirror on that wall so you can actually see behind you is also a good idea. And sitting on the daybed you can look at your window with all the little dangling things and plants... it's a perfect little cozy nook! 😍
Love the art journaling nook. It looks cosy and like you can create the energy for art journaling easier in that nook. The lights are lovely and add to the cosiness. I totally understand wanting to stay home in your comfort zone. I can feel pretty agoraphobic at times and it’s so hard to push yourself, but more often than not you feel better for it. Good for you Wendy. You did a great job 😘 sending love and blessings to you. 💜
Hello dear girl, I had this same thought about the mirror as the previous comment said. The mirror on the opposite end of the shelves will give the illusion of even more space. Plus you’ll feel more secure knowing you can look behind you. Always keep your door locked and play serene music. I do this and it helps me focus with the right mood. A sweet lamp at the right corner by the window will give even more ambience and extra light on your work. Be blessed in your new space💜
