studio

Remember the studio updates here? Well didn't stay empty for long! But I love it and the picture shelf if great for storing framed prints.

I'm excited to announce all the table top presses are now in place for letterpress workshops starting in January 2012. Sign up for the newsletter here for dates hot off the press!

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...

studio update

I've been working hard on the studio for the workshops with the table top presses. Painting all done, the ugly orange varnish from a vintage plan chest desk now removed and wax finished to reveal the grain. It will be so nice to get working on some new designs in a tidy organised workspace, what you don't see is the chaos on the middle of the room!

I've been teaching a group on young people on a print workshop, back there again tomorrow but this time I will remember to take my camera!
