The Studio

Oh my word would you look how tidy that desk space is, I don't know who's work area that is but it sure as heck ain't mine! Not anymore anyway. This is the corner of my Living Room and where I do most of my work. I've started splitting my time between here and my parents house as they have much more space! One day I will get a room to myself! 

My absolute dream is to one day have one of those fancy big sheds you see at the bottom of peoples gardens that I can utilise as my self contained studio. To have a door that I can lock myself behind or walk away from at the end of a day would just be amazing and the ultimate goal. There would be zones and stations people, zones!! One day. 

So basically this is where I draw, where I work with and make my clay pieces, where my Jesmonite Homewares come to fruition and where I pack all of your lovely orders. The sofa is reserved for knitting and admin, because comfort! I love my cork boards, it felt like a proper creative space when I put them up. It reminds me of my time at my High Mill studio space at uni. We had massive floor to ceiling walls behind our desks that we would pin all of our inspiration to, it was the best. I love visuals of colour and form and pattern, it keeps me inspired and motivated to keep pushing on. 

If I was to give anyone starting out their own little at home studio, my top tip. Organisation. Drawers, people, lots of drawers. Ikea is your best friend. 

Thanks for stopping by for a glimpse into my little creative corner. Here’s hoping I’ll be updating this page soon with a brand new space! You can read more about me as an artist here
