Spring Cleaning the Studio

It's my favorite time of the year.....spring cleaning the studio!    The studio is not only where I create,    it's home to a lot of my decorating items.

I spent the day going thru my Easter closet,      I love playing with the bunnies.....lol!

The studio is one of the out buildings in the backyard.    There's the greenhouse (Our Happy Place),  the tea room (it's hidden by one of the Boston ferns) ,  a couple of Tuff Sheds,  and the studio is the building in the middle of the photo....the one with the french doors and the Farmhouse sign.

    I took this photo of the backyard last summer and it really makes me want spring to hurry and get here!

The studio used to be a double garage,   but since we have a double garage connected to the main house we didn't need another one. 
  We took down the garage door and put up French doors......added a heating/ cooling unit and my studio was complete!

 

The cabinets were original to the garage,   so all I had to do was fill "um up.      Wish they were white,   but it's not high on my 'to do" list to paint them.

My bunnies have been multiplying over the years.........

When I did my spring cleaning today,    I boxed up a few to send to the auction but there is still too many!

I made these shabby chic eggs and carrots last year.....

My Easter tree has been around for several years.......

I need to do a few repairs on it before I can use it again.

My Easter tree's lights don't work any more and the bows are looking a little sad.

Now let's see what's in the other cabinet.

In my defense,    a lot of these bunnies belonged to my mother and I can't bring myself to get rid of them.

 

The big bunny in the center  of the top shelf was one of my mothers.

These are new from a couple of years ago......

The black metal file drawers on the shelves came from H's office.     They were used to store "delivered" freight bills.

I am using them to store my Easter eggs and  grass for the Easter baskets.

I have a big Christmas tree right beside the cabinets that I use to store all the faux flowers I use in my arrangements.    The flowers keep getting in front of the camera! 

I'll share my Flower  Christmas Tree in another post.

If you look behind my chair,    you can see some of the lamps that I store in the studio.     We are purging this spring and some of them will be donated and some will be sent to the auction.

One of the bunnies took over my chair while I was up cleaning!

I will share more of my spring cleaning in the studio later!

I always enjoy your visit,   come back soon
