cleaning ( huge groan) the studio now with pictures











ok today amoung other things i am to clean off the sewing table
i was trying to clean off one long workbench and one smallish bookcase

( which will eventually live on the long workbench, thereby freeing 12X24 INCHES of footprint)

hey every inch counts around these parts ya know.......

the arco box painting experiment is pretty successful so after i get more headway
i will prep the next one and get that sprayed up

when i woke up this morning it was 28 degrees out!
huh?
it's after our last date of frost
too bad it won't kill off the grass and weeds in my garden
BUT if i had planted cuc's they would have been toast right now

i also discovered that LONG duckie necks with LONG STRONG duckie BEAKS have been turning one of my garden beds through the chain link
RIGHT where i had planned on beans and cuc's
mmmmmmmm

bad little duckie girls huh?
looking for worms

i swear right now the girls live for worms

it's a matter of 'mommy who?......... do you have WORMS? no........ move on then'

yup.
thems my girls

now
i need some ideas for storage for the studio,
i am going nuts
i don't want to buy too much that may not work well for me
i got the inks to store, and watercolors
my taboret which was a sort of homemade rigged one doesn't hold anything that is over 2" high as that is the depth of the drawers
actually if i can modify it and get deeper drawers it would work a LOT better
maybe that would be worth looking into?

in the mean time
i was thinking of the smallish clearish stacking plastic drawers
to hold inks and watercolors etc

i am going to have to use my old old desk from when my siblings were kids ( so it was from the 40's, or maybe the 50's )
i am however going to paint it (yup you guessed it.............) CREAM
and give it a topper of either glass or a drafting table covering
i can put most of the stuff for my drawing/painting area on that
including i think, craft painting............as i have been known to paint things like bird houses and such from time to time
( miniature and full sized ones with tiny english cottage gardens.... yup nuts but someone has to do it no?)
it;s 18X42 inches with three drawers under so it should be ok no?

well if any of you have any ideas...........now would be a good time to post them to me


oye
