Studio tour

Welcome to nutshell studios

This is walnut, the larger of my two very small work shops.

Each are bulging at the seams with things I can't seem to live without !

collections, supplies, more collections, and piles of art I spend my days creating.

My husband built my studios and did all the stonework.

Come take a look around~

One of my favorite things are these old chinese ginger jars that hold my tools.

Baskets cover every surface, crowded with items I need or just love having around .

My drawers equally,  have not a inch more space,  somehow tho I seem to stuff in more !
These handmade books, papers from Japan, small things I gather bring me so much joy .

Can't have enough books, inspiration at my finger tips

Outside this window is a huge pine tree, the trunk consumes half of the window view and allot of my light, In return, most every afternoon at least a half dozen wood peckers line up squawking for peanuts,
I love watching them, It's a good trade.
 

I tend to collect  green into turquoise things, I've always been drawn to these shades of color,
cool and soothing, refreshing, ~ watery .

I find myself creating things to match my paintings, like these paper butterflies .

Thank goodness for shelves ........

And wherever I sit, I insist on having something in front of me that is deliciously pleasing .

Thank for stopping by, next time I'll show you around acorn, aka little shop of horrors !
Wishing you happy days ~ vicki
