Hello there, friends of Mattie!
I'm LolaDee and I'm delighted that Mattie invited me over for the weekend :)
Since all I've been doing this week is working and drowning in a sea of craft supplies trying to tidy my studio, I figured I would share a little 'day in the life' picture post with you.
7:30am; Find something fun to wear.
9:00am; Arrive at the radio station I'm currently on work placement in.
Make myself a cup of tea.
Search online for interesting content for the show.
Read the luffly Russel Brand's Booky Wook 2.
10:00am; Sit myself at my little work station in the studio, where I research for the show.
2:00pm; Finish the show, go out and get some vox pops from the public for the sports show.
3:30pm; Come home, greeted by my insanely messy craft studio. Decide it needs tidying before I can do anything!
7:30pm; Get distracted by shiny vintage buttons. Make some brooches.
11:30pm; FINALLY finished. Super excited at how nice it looks and suddenly feel 100% more motivated to get working. The Tour???
My Desk (it NEVER looks this organised, I promise)
This is a journal that I like to write down little goals in.
These are some photos of my parents from the 70's. They always make me smile :)
Here is my large work-table with my sewing machine.
I'm ashamed to say I've had this sewing machine since the summer
and I still haven't really used it. It's my new years resolution, though! Watch this space ;)
My shelves where I keep fabric, felt and other bits n pieces.
My button collection. A little obsessed to be honest!
I love this vintage glass bowl and it works a treat for keeping small balls of yarn in.
And this is a vintage picnic basket I found at a carboot sale for €2 that I like to keep my finished products in as it makes it easy to carry them around to fairs and markets. And it looks cute :)
Well, that's basically a day in my life. It's a little deceiving because my studio is usually a mess when I'm actually working in it. I guess you caught me on a good day! :)
Have a great weekend and thanks to Mattie for having me over!
LolaDee xoxo

Love these pics of your work space, and as someone that just did a big studio clean up I know your pain!
