I can't wait to see your finished sewing room. I love how frugal you are. It is a testimony to not needing a big space or lot of sewing "things" to start your sewing journey. My sewing room used to be my boys bedroom it is painted with a NASCAR theme, and I just love it. I have such wonderful memories of the boys playing in this room that it makes my heart happy. I recently found out that I will be a grandma in July, and I am excited to sew with and for a little one in the future. Thanks again for your wonderful videos and your time. I look forward to future videos.
Melissa - CONGRATULATIONS!!! Oh my, sewing for little ones is SUCH A JOY! You will love it. 100% agree with you on not needing fancy things for sewing - just start with what you have :) oh, here are some free patterns for babies and my personal examples that I made for my little one - ruclips.net/video/LGybOX1W0FI/видео.html
I need to go through my art corner in our house. Definitely want it to be more functional. Way to start of the new year! Looking forward to seeing more of the makeover.
This is exciting!!! It makes my heart sooo happy to see this. It sounds like precious little Artemis is like her mommy. It’s wonderful you can share this experience with her. Luv it. I mix cans of paint all the time and have had some awesome colours from it. Your idea with the gift wrap tube ladder is genius and I am inspired by your fabric stash and the clever ways you use it. Happy New Year Alisa! I can’t wait to see what’s coming from your fabulous channel. 🥰❤️
I think your room looks lovely. I can’t decorate worth a fig, but do know that a strong paint color can reflect onto objects in the room and distort the color.
Happy New Year. Your room is looking beautiful. All fresh and organized to start the new year. I know you and your daughter will have many hours of enjoyment in there.
I have not been keeping up with your videos as life got crazy. I loved this video though, it was like sitting down and catching up with a friend over tea. I have a very small space to work in for sewing, and I am also working this week on trying to organize it, it is hard when you have to move the machines out and you don’t have a place to leave a WIP out. One day I hope for more dedicated room. I wanted to thank you for your videos this year. You have helped my sewjo to the point that I am taking in work now. I would not have had the confidence to do that without your videos on easy drafting and creative use of items,
Your ideas have my head spinning with excitement! See a couple I might duplicate in my space. Question, if you don't mind sharing, "How big is your space?"
Happy New Year to you and your family, Alisa! I love what you have accomplished so far! My only suggestion is : I would raise the hanging fabric rack so that the top roll is at about standing eye level or so. It would be easy to test by temporary knots. Do a test video and analyze after up loading to the computer. I do love the fabrics you have chosen for the display. Stay safe !!
Hi I just love watching u u really inspired me to want to learn much more thank u I see u use that pink measuring tape alot , do u remember where u bought it I think it's so pretty
Bobbie, hello there! It is my pleasure to read your comment and it makes me beyond happy that you want to learn more - it is so much fun to try new things! Ah, the pink tape measure - it was just $1 at Jo-ann's fabric - bought it years ago, still using :)
I really need to research design. My husband and I are buying our first home after years of moving around the country. It's a 100 year old home that was updated very basic. I will finally have my own sewing room that will double as a guest room for our rare guests. I won't have to share space with my messy, packrat husband. I am looking forward to designing and decorating my room. What I love about this home is the natural light in all the rooms.
I would like to see more vibrant colors in both your sewing space and your choice of garment fabrics. No gray. I bet you look great in red, royal blue, and multicolored printed fabric!
My son was born in Latvia. I stayed in Riga for about a week. I am with you, things need to be first and foremost useful. Then I (also) like them to be beautiful. Same with clothes -- first and foremost they have to be comfortable, then beautiful. You've done a wonderful job and you can tell you have a natural/good sense of color. I also stack my rolls in a corner but the paper rolls are in a large decorative popcorn barrel and the sewing rolls are in a large round basket. Even my large rolls of fabric are contained in milk cartons. I really like your wall fabric display. Wondering if you will actually ever use the fabric now or is it made up of scrap fabric? FYI - mirrors are also good for brightening up dark spaces and when I paint I think do I want the object to pop out or the items in front/around it to pop? Thanks, I got a LOT of inspirational ideas!
Whaaaaaaaat? Sage, I know you have been watching my channel for quite some time - I recognize your name very well, but I had no idea we have a "Latvian" connection! I love Riga, Lived there 18 years of my life, that city is everything! Have you ever had a chance to visit again? And, 100% agree about what you said re: "useful and then beautiful!".
No, I haven't been able to get back. I love being home with my hands in the soil. I am everything about Mother Earth. We do have a lot of similar preferences - creativity, recycle/upcycle/reuse, life long learners, hands-on type of gals.
Very inspiring, love your redo. I would add more color (like on the pegboard) but I am a more is more person and I think you are not so go with your gut
The Light pink with green and l little of Gold is gorgeous
The fabric hanger is genius and the fabrics look gorgeous!
Mara, thank you! I love that fabric too! :)
Lovely... just lovely. And I agree with you 100% on the practical use of space vs filling it with “staging”.

I love your design decisions and how resourceful you are! Can’t wait to see what color the peg board becomes.
Thank you so much! The peg board is painted and the new episode is up :)

Hannah, super happy to hear that! Welcome and browse around - lots of fun tutorials and sewing videos :)
the city you grew up in looks like a warm hug.
It sure does! It is very cozy!
@@ThoughtfulCreativity This is mamasprintable at different account ... What city are you from ?

Very nice! This is a great way to save money and get a new look to your sewing room! I love it!
Happy New Year. Your room is looking beautiful. All fresh and organized to start the new year. I know you and your daughter will have many hours of enjoyment in there.
the hanger for fabrics is very clever!
Thank you!
Love that place is beautiful.
Love your outlook and positivity
Thank you, Diane!!!
Love the pink! Of course, it is my favorite color. :)
Great idea for fabric organizer
You definitely accomplished your goal of it looking like a workshop. It is turning out lovely! Can’t wait to see the next video!
Thanks so much! 😊 it took a lot of doing + thinking. I definitely appreciate all home designers more than before! :)

Hi Alisa!! Loving this makeover.. Fabric hanger is genius.. Can’t wait to see room when finished.. Happy New Year to you & your family!!!!
💜💜💜🧵🧵🧵
I got a room last year but now my husband has asked for an office space near me! So I understand. Staying at home more makes you rethink spaces
Amanda, exactly! and... makes you appreciate things more, too.
I think your small mirror would look super in front of your hanging wall rack that hold your material.
I love this! I have a little one and can’t wait to see how you make scissors look cute
Beautiful start to the corner in your multipurpose room. Happy New Year Alissa! 🎉❤️🌵
Looks fab!!!!!!!!

Love your ingenuity.
I love the makeover !! Can’t wait to see how the rest of the room turns out. Happy New Year!!

Love your videos. I say paint that pegboard a different color!
My son was born in Latvia. I stayed in Riga for about a week.

Looking good so far. 😍
I can see the yellow spots on the peg board. You could add the green into the room via the paint on the peg board.
He he, Sarah, I realized that when I was editing the video :) aaaand... You are on the right path about the pegboard :)
Green pegboard
I can see the yellowed spots. I hope you go with color and wallpaper! Thanks.
Dee, hi! Happy new year! Yes.... When I was editing the footage - I realised that you can actually see them on the screen. There will be more color :)
Beautiful room. I have a quedtiin. Where did you buy your dress forms/ mannequin? Thank you
It looks lovely so far Alisa, why don’t you paint your board one of your lovely darkish blue colour? 🤗
Great suggestion, Eve!!!
Very inspiring, love your redo. I would add more color (like on the pegboard) but I am a more is more person and I think you are not so go with your gut
Funnily enough, I planned for today to be my clean up/reorganize my studio and bedroom 😅
That's a good way how to start the year!!! And... It took me much longer than I thought :) so be prepared :)
@@ThoughtfulCreativity i can already see myself buying more basket organizers 😅
Is that all the fabric you have?! How do you organize all of your fabric?
Awesome!
You are so sweet. Job well done 👍
What color are the walls?
Cynthia, they are light grey!
Thanks
Hi Boys 😍💋 💝💖♥️❤️
