I know it sound strange using a garden shed as a jewellery studio but it's no ordinary shed. When we moved into our present house, it was the shed that sealed the deal. It is a large shed, though I have never measured it, I think its about 10ft x 12ft. The wall are plaster boarded covered with lining paper and I painted it baby pink! I have fourteen fitted electric sockets in there so goodness knows what the previous occupier used it for. I have a phone socket and cctv socket and a tv ariel socket, it even has its own fuse box and an installed smoke alarm! I have blue carpet tiles on the floor which are in need of renewing, laminate flooring would be nice.
It is not the lightest of studios, but the fluorescent strip lighting helps to give a natural daylight feel to it. I have two little windows in the studio and silver slatted blinds for privacy in my sanctuary :-)
Okay I had better show you all some pictures, some have been taken recently and others a while ago, you will probably see what I mean about it forever changing.
I am moving house after Christmas 2011 and I will not have the luxury of my shed anymore but I will be building a beautiful indoor studio and I have seen some lovely designs for my studio's new look.
I would like it something like this photo above, colourful yet white, country style, bright and light and storage for everything. I studied Interior Design at degree level so I should have no problems, except for cash flow of course, I can see this being expensive but great fun to do. Once I have moved I might do a step by step of how I created my new studio, do you think that would be a good idea?
