My Studio...

Well, as promised, here are some pictures of my "Clayroom"!  It's pretty much all set up, just have a couple more things to unpack and find places for.  And I do have to figure out some kind of closet door...






I just love working in that room with those two nice windows, letting in all the light.  It was like Christmas a bit early, when I started unpacking my studio boxes - hadn't seen a lot of my stuff since 2007, when it was all packed away.  I feel so much more organized, and love having the tools I need right at my fingertips!  One of the best parts of that room is the bed - I will be adding more pillows so that it will be like a couch for people to come in and chat with me - then, when we have overnight guests, they'll have a nice place to sleep.  I am so happy to say that our first overnight guest will be our daughter!  She just sent me her itinerary for her trip here, and I was thrilled to hear that she'll be staying for two weeks - she'll be here for both Christmas and New Years!!  Her dad, brother and I are so happy about that, as are the other family members and friends here in Michigan!  We'll have time for all of our family traditions... making Christmas cookies together and attempting to make my family's Christmas Eve dinner. (Wish us luck on that one!)  It's a big traditional Italian Christmas Eve dinner (calamari, and two other fish dishes ~ as well as three different kinds of pasta dishes) which I have never prepared by myself, this will be the first time.  My daughter insisted that we try, we'll see how it turns out...  we will have fun either way, just being together. Times when we are all together are pretty rare now that my kids are all grown up!  I am so thankful for the precious moments when we can all be together!!

  1. Your room is beautiful, so bright and cheery and such a great place to clay. I am so happy that Melissa will be able to spend the holidays there. Being a teacher gives her loads of perks and this is just one of many.

  3. What a lovely, happy-looking, light and airy, yet cozy space you have created! May much joy and beauty be found there. So glad that your daughter will be the first guest of honour. Must be so much fun to now have access to things that had been packed away for 3-4 years.

  7. Hi, your work is so cute! What kind of paint do you use? And do you glaze your figures as well? Just wondering, as I have a lot of trouble with lint and stuff on my clay!!! Thank you!!!

  8. Thank you ccarolee!!! I'm so happy to know you like my work! I use a matte finish on my pieces, Liquitex Matte Varnish or Studio Sculpey and then I use Sculpey Glaze just here and there on each piece where I want a shiny effect. I haven't had any problem with dust sticking to my pieces... I use a soft paintbrush to dust them off and that works great.
