Art Studio progress

My dad is unstoppable.
Once he has an idea in his mind, nothing will change it….as was the case with our art studio over the summer break.
I say "art studio" but I've heard whispers of "a man cave", "pool room", "inlaw accommodation", "rumpus", "camping site", "Tom's room"….hmmm
I might just have to assert my authority.


















Proud and grateful.
She is going to look beautiful all dressed up.
Thanks Dad.

  2. Wow, it's beautiful! Your Dad is very talented. The way it's raised off the ground makes it kind of look like a tree house too, very magical. I imagine you'll have a lot of fun decorating it, I know I would! x

    1. I can't wait Gillian, we have to paint inside and then I'm away (well actually I have to save up a bit of mulla to furnish it…but i'm sure, as is with most of my wares, it will be op shopped!)
