As promised, I have some pictures of the new studio. Aesthetically it still has work, but everything is functioning so that's what's important right now. Eventually it will be functional AND aesthetically pleasing (which is the perfect combination in the mind of a crafts major). The room is currently painted, so the swatch you see in the photos is the color of the room now. I jumped the gun and got too excited to take photos before it was finished...

my workspace/bench
Kaitlin's workspace/bench
far view of the soldering area and general work area with a buffer and drill press; "dry area" with a printer, light box and desk
I also spotted a giant box with a picture of a bandsaw down there this evening, so I'm hoping that is not a trick. We're getting serious over here!
In other news, everything has been really hectic recently... some good things, some not-so-good things and one really amazing thing. Me and three former classmates/good friends/jewelers will be reunited in order to make some pretty creative commissions in the near future! I'm pretty pumped to collaborate with these ladies; I already know it is going to be lots of work, but such a great experience. More to come on that one later, though....
