Organizing

If you've ever been to my little bungalow

and looked in my studio closet before yesterday,

you'd know this is a brand new world.

I've not been able to walk more than a half-pace inside of it to fetch what I needed,

what I needed being way below eye level and buried in the darkness of a deep, dark hutch-top

that was used for shelving.

No more!!!

Thanks to a 45 dollar tall white bookshelf from Ikea

and the use of the rolling cabinet I already had,

the closet is truly one I can enter and exit

without stumbling or bumbling.

The next phase in my studio shape-up

is the offloading of many findings,

most of them raw brass, pressed into the shape of things that are pretty.

I will be doing a big destash.

I may open an Etsy shop to make it simple

as there are quite a few things that need to go, or I may just put pictures up here

on the blog and take offers - I don't know yet what makes the most sense.

In the meantime, I am determined to have the studio be a place of great peace and ease so that I can keep creating without added stress after my maternity leave in March, April and May.

Who knows: I may sneak in and make a few things during that time:

the perils of loving my job!

Have a wonderful Sunday,

Sunny
