Yours sounds amazing, Willie! Would love to have something similar and considered it quite a few times over the last few years. No HOA to deal with either with is a plus. Our intention has been to sell for at least the last 5-7 years so we never did. Things always take longer than planned…like finishing up this house to get it ready to sell. We are finally there but finding the “right” house has been challenging in this market. Even a large 2 to 2 1/2 car garage would be amazing. I’m not picky! ;) One of these days!! (and I will be a very happy camper, for sure!)

🤔The best goal, usually drifts just ahead, and while hope, is a vital ingredient, it would be nice to have at least some place to consolidate. I do lots of inventive fabricating projects… and while there’s not exactly a shop, I have a shed with outlets. It’s not great, but, it is my own arena space. There’s portable fans and drop lights.. and drop curtains 🙄of a sort.. to block different sides at different times for different reasons 🧐.. Most people would think it not great, but, I don’t know what I would do without it… I may never have a real shop.. but, I still refer to it as my shop. And, it was pretty inexpensive.. 🙄but then, I don’t have an HOA to deal with. But.. would something attractive ( you could call it an arbor or gazebo) work? 🤗

I agree!! One of the things we are looking for in our new home hunt! :)

😮That’s amazing; I would never have guessed😮….. you really really Need ~ a dedicated
Space !!

These are great tips!! Thank you so much for taking the time to write this out for me, Diana. I will definitely keep this in mind in the future! :)

Thanks so much, Ivory! xo

Oh yes, that would be perfect, wouldn’t it?! I so agree!! Thank you, Michele! xo

Aw, thanks, Rose!! xoxo

Thank you, Willie! Oh, how I so wish!! I don’t even have a shop to do this kind of work. My garage is small (and full) and I usually end up working wherever I can … the kitchen island, on the floor adjacent to the living room with a drop cloth, etc, etc. (which is not ideal, of course) And one of the several reasons we would like to move and find a new home soon. I don’t know what I would do with a big ole shop!! I would jump with joy!! :) xo

Aw,thanks so much, Cecilia! Oh yes, can definitely use lighter colors. I have in the past, I need to use more green. I think I will! ;) xo

Thank you, Cheryl!! I love those too!! xo

Thank you, Christina! :) xo
