Default Finally, an actual out of my house studio!!

These are some before pics of the almost finished on my side of the "shed"! David's side will take some time organizing all the tools! We need to throw away a lot of stuff in there but it will get there!
Pic 1. Where I'm setting up the torch
Pic 2. What's behind me that hopefully will get cleaned off!
Pic 3. David's side of the shed
Pic 4. What my view is now, yay I have a view instead of a broken blind I couldn't open!
Pic 5. Picture taken from the back porch, I counted 26 paces to my little retreat!

Got 2 shelves and a stool and mat today, not the chair I wanted so it's just temporary till I can get the one I want. Now just have to go put them in place! My hands are killing me from putting them all together! LOL! As far as the garden space, well we will see. I kill airferns and my thumb is about as black as night when it comes to gardening!

So glad for you that it is all coming together. Lots of work ahead but behind you as well. It will be wonderful when you're able to be at the torch making grand stuff again.

Thanks!! I still need to get a cinderblock or something weighted for the wire rack, I'll feel safer then! This shop is so well insulated that I may not need a heater out there this winter but come summer I will definetly need an ac unit!

Hi Anne,

Great studio space! You will love working in there. I like the long arm of your face shield, do you mind if I ask where you got it? I have been wanting one and haven't found the perfect base yet.

I got that sheild years ago from Heritage Glass. I would like to trade it in for a new sheild from Blue Moon Glassworks that clamps onto my table or actually I would like to hang it from the vent system.

Well I've done some adjusting, the kiln is higher now so I don't break my back trying to put beads in it! I put a peice of foam on the shelf that is at my knees, still need to figure out how to cut a peice outta that. I've taken down that top light above the window and put it closer to me on the right side of the table. Still need to get a drafting chair but that will have to come later. As far as the posters, I've collected them over the years, some were bulk buys, others I've gotten at Gatherings and one I made in my Cafe Press store, but for some reason it doesn't show up anymore! I've tried to add it to the stuff I have but it won't do it anymore!

Well now I have experienced what so many people have had happen to them, watched flaming fireballs land on their tables while making beads! One was a wasp and the other was a fly!! Ewwww!!!

I left the door open because it got a bit warmish out there so things were flying all over today!
