Three days off. One for catching up on much needed rest leaving two for attacking the studio. I had let the studio space go, it had become a dumping ground for everything I didn't feel like sorting through. Couple that with two rambunctious kitties and soon the mess becomes a disaster.
Now at first it did seem a bit overwhelming, so I broke it down in chunks, only working on one part of the room at a time. As a reward once I was done with a section I let myself stop and take a break with something fun like a quick YouTube search on tutorials to remind myself just why it was I needed to wade through this mess. And along with way discovered tons of craft video tutorials I hadn't even thought existed, so bonus.
I did take some photos to prove my progress, I was playing around with some new software and so made a slide show and uploaded to the YouTube account just to see if I could. There is still a ton left to organize with the beads and shelves but progress has been made.
The result of two days of work is that I now have a working hot glass area again, and the kiln controller is set up so now I can actually control the soaking time now. Hopefully no more slagging good beads. I now have a space I want to spend time in instead of avoiding and to me thats real progress.
