Howdy! Our house remodel is near-about finished, and yesterday Larry Brickman (Larry rocks!) came over and helped me get my studio put together.
It's very messy right now. I need to get shelves for my glass; a lot of stuff is still in boxes. (Heck, it'll probably stay messy, but not this bad.)
This is the door from the basement hallway, on the north wall (studio is at south end of house).
56730
This is my sink, in the SW corner, with my electroform kit (thanks, Janelle!) and bead cleaner and assorted stuff.
56731
This is the NW corner, with glass piled into it (recently retrieved from our storage unit - I'm thankful not to have a big pile of frit). Between the sink and this corner, I plan to put in a couch and coffee table.
56732
This is the N wall - with more boxes in foreground. This photo shows a truer depiction of the paint color (although still a bit washed out). I'll probably put a station here for fusing.
56733
This is also the N wall, with the door that goes outside. Somewhere over here, I'll be putting the cat pan (oh joy).
56734
And here's the work table! It's stainless steel, from a restaurant supply store. I have a pirrhana and a mini carlisle, with a concentrator for each. The remodel company put the hole in the wall for the propane line; Larry said it should have gone in lower. (Why didn't I see that myself??) I'll be putting something in front of it to guard from hot flying glass. Also will be putting a blank plate over that outlet. The hood is by Glasscraft and just got 2 lights installed in it today - woohoo!! (Oh yeah, all this is on the E wall.)
56735
This is the S wall. I'm going to put in a mini fridge and probably shelves for the glass.
56736
Here's a closer-in shot of the torches. I also got a creation station with leather bean bags; it's sweet.
56737
And last but not least - the propane tank, with the trash can that my husband very nicely tailored to fit over it.

Finally the house feels like a home!!
