My Studio - - A work-in-progress

some of you may remember

the

gawd-awful 

studio pics

i posted a while back 

after 

we moved in.

i've been procrastinating 

a bit
(due to my neck & back issues)
for what

seems like 4-ever

but 

this past week

i decided to start tackling

the room

b4 pics

the bag of scrapped wood

below

used to be

the white shelf on my little

work bench/table

above.

it was just 2 big

for my space.

this is what i decided 

to keep

once i smashed it
to

king-dum-come

with my x-large craftsman hammer

:)

i'm not sure what i'm going to do with these 

3 drawers & bottom shelf

yet.

this cabinet below was white
to begin with
(as u can see above)

an unfinished white.

so ...

i put the door back on.

 gave it a fresh coat of

a very light gray

then a very dark gray

 then a sort-of aqua blue

then primer

then behr

"decorator white"
(in eggshell)

from home depot.

then

i was happy.
sheesh!

it's waiting to be sanded

a little.

just around the edges.

the scrap wood in front 

i bought from a salvage shop.

i love

the blue & gray paint/stain

left along the edge.

these will be used some-where

in the apartment.

not sure where just yet.

the rt 133 sign 

is the one i mentioned in a previous post.

my antique bench/table on the right

(the 1 jamie said ... " i can't believe you slapped paint on that!)

has gotten some of the same 

"decorator white"

in a semi-gloss

(it's going to be my sewing table)

i've started to distress  the table some.

this is the desk/sewing table from the pic above.

jamie was kind enough to take the black

paint off the top today.

the bottom got the same white

in semi-gloss.

it's my work-bench now

(or will be once it's done).

i still have to decide 

if the top will be left in it's

un-finished state

or 

 something else.

**wonders why jamie never said a word about this one!**

more pic's to come later.

once it's all finished

(most likely)

2 da loo!

p.s

i have new plans for my etsy shop.

the first step was taken last night.

also ~ there's something else i'm working on as well.

but i don't want to get ahead of myself

so

i'm not going to mention that 

just yet.
