Peeking into Other People's Studios
June 05, 2017
I spent the weekend very happily trying to clean up the unbelievable disaster pit that is my studio space. To be fair, my entire apartment is kind of a tornado-meets-laundry-meets-half-packed-suitcases kind of pit. But after a crazy six weeks of traveling and making stuff at a more-insane-than-usual pace, it was time to dig out. I'm mostly through the major heavy lifting at this point and trying to think through some storage choices. After a year-and-a-half in this space, my workflow is not exactly how I originally planned it and so I might make some changes in how things are arranged. Maybe. Sort of like the "measure twice and cut once" rule, I have found that actually thinking through studio arrangement/storage before moving anything is a good idea. While I mull things over (and yes, I will finally share a big photo tour of the studio space once things are settled), I thought I'd share some studio tours that piqued my interest. I hope you'll enjoy a voyeuristic peek into these spaces too!
Roxanne Coble (aka by bun) put together the cutest video about her studio. If you're a fan of Wes Anderson, I think you'll really dig the video:
If you've got a small space, I like this video that share how to turn a closet into fabulous crafty storage:
I thought that this next video had a lot of great content about thinking about how to organize your stuff and creating some inexpensive DIY storage:
If you want more studio peeking, there's a fun book called "Studio: Creative Spaces for Creative People" that you might enjoy!
Do you have a great art supply organizing tip you'd like to share?! I'd love to know what it is!
Thanks for stopping by!
