New Pottery Studio

I took plenty of pictures during the storeroom to studio transformation and thought I downloaded them onto my computer, but I can't find them in any files.  And I've deleted them off my camera.  Has that happened to you?  It's too bad, because the difference in this area of our house is amazing.   But, here are some pictures of the studio. 

Here is a view from the doorway.  My wonderful sink area.  The ledge above the sink was necessary because of the new water line for the sink, but has come in handy, don't you think?  Also, notice the red support column.  This is supporting a structural beam and couldn't be moved.  Unfortunately, it was in the way of my counters, so I just cut around the beam.  Lol.  I actually love it that way.  The workman wanted to repaint the column, but I thought it was great just the way it was.   I don't have pulls on the cabinet doors yet....still on the to-do list.  And don't you love the paper mache mask that Jordan made when she was in middle school.  It had to come into the studio. 

To the right of my work table are the adjustable shelves X B made for me.   And through that door is my smaller, improved, well-lit storage room.  Love it....now it's not spooky to look for stuff in there.  I used to swear there was someone living in our old store room and had to really psyche myself up to go in it.

This is my wonderful new slab table!  Look at Baxter on the left....he looks like he got caught in the act of doing something naughty. 

To the right of the slab table is an under the stair storage area for all my glaze chemicals:


And most importantly, is a designated area for Baxter to lie down while watching me play with clay.  Hope you enjoyed seeing my new space.  I'm still pinching myself.  Ouch!
