I have a special episode to share with you today all about how my husband and I built my dream studio! We share all our tips for planning and budgeting, how we worked together to get this finished. Thankfully, with some strategy, we did not go into debt over this project! And believe it or not, my husband John had very little construction experience before building this… he learned mostly everything he needed to know through free resources on the internet.

Listen to the episode to hear about the evolution of my studio journey- it has gone through many phases and I share a bit about each one and why we finally decided to take the plunge and build a stand alone studio detached from our house. I’ve shared photos below from each of the different studios I have worked in while living in Tennessee (except the short phase of our bedroom studio). Scroll through and enjoy the journey! Links to the resources John used for construction planning are at the bottom of the post.

Biggest thanks to my husband John for tackling this huge project and working his butt off all last year to get it built! Also so grateful to my parents for gifting us the money we needed to get this project started. And to my patient kids who see every family project as an opportunity to be involved and learn something new!
