Buga is still completely enamored over her Art Studio…and there have been more art projects made since its inception than ever before — which makes me enamored with it too. Take up precious row-home space for a children’s art table, you ask? Absolutely! It’s already gotten more traffic than my china cabinet ever did. It’s functional space. Real estate in my home is a commodity…but, I do not regret this investment one iota. Paint. Stickers. Tape. Pens. Pencils. Crayons. Conte. Collage. Brushes. Oil pastels. Scissors. Glue. Stamps. Ink. Do a dot. Beads. Pipe cleaners. Pom poms. Gemstones. You name it. So much use. I would have LOVED something like this when I was a child….or a high school student. Who am I kidding? It still makes me giddy inside to see all those writing utensils and craft supplies at our fingertips.
