This is not a heavy-weight book, but rather a small coffee-table type book that is fun to look at, and which sets you off on your daydreams about how your own ideal space should be.
Some of the spaces are too frilly for me, but I do absolutely love two spaces in particular: Susan Pickering Rothamel's and Suze Weinberg's. They are meticulously organized, and, best of all, Weinberg has a photo of the ST:TOS crew on her wall! How can I not love her space?

I wanted to like this book but the style of work spaces highlighted were too fussy for my taste. Also, the types of art the women created did not appeal to me.
If you are looking for some ideas on how to personalize your office/creative space, I recommend reading:
"The Nest Home Design Handbook: Simple ways to decorate, organize, and personalize your place."

Very promising title, disappointing content. Was looking for more inspiration through woman artists studios, but this focused on more crafty female creators and lacked the more formal art disciplines. Also all little know names. I respect craft as art but disliked the lack of balance. Seemed to suggest to that's all women artists are good for a sentiment I've come across before and resent.

Got this as a gift, and it's one of my very favorite books ever.
If you love pretty things... and shabby n chic, this will make you drool.
Every time I pick it up, I want to redecorate my craft room; and usually do!

I plonked myself down in a new papercrafts shop this afternoon and *read* this entire book. Each artist/crafter has about 6-8 pages of wonderful photos of her workspace, with interviews and favorite quotes and shared tips. I mostly looked at the great pictures and read the quotes and tips. I know many of these names from various articles and products, so it was inspiring, and intimidating, to see where they do their artwork.
Also a reminder that I need to do more of my own artwor More...

I enjoyed reading about these women's studios and dreaming about how much I'd love one of my own. I did come away with a lot of storage ideas that hadn't occurred to me before. Mostly this book is eye candy for artists like me who don't have nice big studios.

This book was full of eye candy, but very much like reading the magazine. I don't know why I was expecting something different, but I was.

Fun and interesting to see what other women do and where they create. I was inspired to create more and make my spaces more beautiful.

I really enjoyed being able to take a peek into the work spaces of a collection of very talented women artists. The photos are very inspirational and each artist talks about why they have created a space that nurtures their individual creative process, shares their favorite quote and a tip for carving out your own creative space.

this will give you a peek and give you decorating ideas by people who are artistically inclined and you will see different ways of doing things. Good for people like me who are clueless about decorating.

Eye Candy!!! I love the thought of an organized and creative space and enjoy dreaming over the creative spaces of others

I was a bit disappointed by this book, but I keep it nonetheless to look through for inspiration.

Just makes me so jealous that I can't have my own studio too. *sigh* Some day I will!

Most of the areas looked very similar to me. Nothing like what I would do.
