studio - work in progress

Progress continues on the studio, more sanding and lots of clearing out! The large cupboard houses my mac and printer and was cleverly converted from an old pine unit by my hubby. (Hmm have yet to tidy the inside of it yet, so more pics later ;o)
The wood drawers house part of my collection of wood type, (you can see the before pic here) finally got round to sanding them down and giving them a coat of wax. Just need to label them all again now!
I've been looking round for inspiration for my studio and always love the bright white and salvaged look but come one, white and ink just don't mix! I have to be realistic so a piece of salvaged black worktop will be more user friendly.
Picture shelves, art and some inspiration on the walls next...

  4. Can't wait to see how the studio looks when it's completed and more importantly, actually in use.

    Loving that Excelsior press - better than an Adana, hey?

  7. Personal experience says you'll fill that space up very quickly with piles of paper and letterpress kit - good luck though!
