Where Bloggers Create 2014

Hello my dear friends,

it is the first time I am taking part in this neat event and it has taken me the last two years now to finally get ready in time to be here today and to open the door to my studio to all of you. These past few weeks have been full of ups and downs but I am done and ready!

I have taken many photos for you to see everything (maybe too many?!) and I hope I haven't forgotten anything. Today I will let my photographs talk instead of me. Be sure to bring a little time to visit and now ...

 I would like to welcome you all to my creative place ...


 
... please, do come in!
 


































 

 
 
Thank you for visiting me and ...
 
 
... I am so happy you came and I hope have enjoyed your little stay.
It would be so nice if you stopped by some time soon again and visited me here at Todolwen.

I hope you are well my dear friends and life is treating you kind.

Have a peaceful and creative day.

  1. It's lovely, Karen! Beautiful light from the window and so many wonderful creations tucked in with the supplies. I'm going to post this comment, and then slowly scroll through your photos again.

    Thank you for sharing your inspiring creative place with all of us!

  2. Oh, Karen, what a beautiful respite. I would love to visit you and look into all those nooks and crannies to discover what's hiding. I especially love two things: all those Kraft boxes (those, especially, I would love to peek into) and the mustard seed crocheted/knitted flowers. Oh love them. Thank you for sharing your room.
