Well I've began the re-do on the studio. I guess the word re-do isn't an accurate description of the task. Maybe the word restructuring is a better fit.
I have however began the very long process of sorting, separating, putting away items that aren't used regularly, unless their cute of course, then I want to be able to see them.
Since my studio is also my shop, and a small space, I wobble back and forth with practicality, functionality and merchandising. All of which, reflect my personality and feeling of well being.
This is the working room part of my studio. I very seldom share. This is where I create. I guess the reason I don't disclose is simple. It's usually a total mess! I make over one-hundred hand crafted items! There's no way it's going to be orderly. Usually stacks of freshly cut soap bars line the walls, and fabric stacked high from work in progress and new designs.
This little corner of the work room however usually stays the same. I think it's good to have a corner that never changes.
My Mom's wooden bench fluffed with softness. My favorite little lamp. All my baubles and bows in clear glass jars so that I can see what I have, cause I sometime forget!
It's the best of both worlds I believe having your shop in your home.
After all, home is where the heart is!
Enjoy caring and sharing summer days.
Happily,

ReplyDeleteI think your studio is great and the way you have it set up is neat. It must be a challenge to merchandise and create in the same space, but what better way to find inspiration.

I agree. You do have the best of both worlds. You can be surrounded by your creations most anytime you wish!
ReplyDeleteEverything looks lovely. How special that you have your mom's wooden bench.
