Huge space, compared to Kehaar. Putting a tarp roof over this area, and a big worktable in the middle (that hole gets covered up...)
This is the waist high table my husband built for me. It's perfect for working at without having to bend over. I can also fit several bins and supplies under it as you can see.
The pads on the table are chux or adult incontinent bed pads. They work great for dyeing and can be reused once they are dry if you spill anything on them. These two will be used several times. Get them at Walmart in the health department for less than $10 a package.
"Flipping the Script" is how someone who came through described my Residency. I doodled it onto my work table pictured here.
Built from reclaimed marble, recovered by reuse action (reuseaction.com) from a lavatory renovation in one of the Buffalo Public Schools. It was a stall partition, so a close inspection shows who loved who, and all sorts of school age nonsense scratched into the marble. We cut it down to size for the customer and left the markings in the marble as part of its charm. The legs, undercarriage and mounting brackets are all made of reclaimed house trim. The marble installed originally in the 1920s, most likely by Italian immigrant craftsmen. In this city the old wood work was done by Poles and Germans, while the stone work was done by the Italians. crafts they brought from their home countries. Without rescuing this material it (and its heritage) would be in the landfill.
Each piece we build is unique and imbued with history...and keeping materials out of landfills.
The paper says it all.
When I was cleaning my house yesterday in anticipation for the overnight guests we hosted, I came across this scrap which had fallen under the craft table. I'm glad that I found it. :)
I am just sorta "designing on the fly" with my color quilt, and it's a little messy...but I like it.

Welcome to SugarPlumDolls.com I think my cute clothespin dolls make fabulous Christmas ornaments or gifts BUT are now also available as greetings cards, postcards and more..Just to let you know all dolls are individually handcrafted clothespin dolls and make very special gifts or can be used as a holiday ornament. I think they add a personal touch to the holidays! It takes me about 2 to 3 days to make each doll. Each doll has her own personality. No two dolls are alike, some dolls may be similar but because of the handmade process each doll is unique. Some dolls may have slight imperfections in the wood, but aren't we all a little less than perfect! Each doll arrives on my worktable as a blank slate. After I draw on the face, paint the hair and body, then I glue the head to the body then wait a day for the paint and glue to dry. I have a treasure trove of fabric and tulle and I begin to craft an outfit and accessories for each girl. I hope you will enjoy your visit here. You can shop for an actual doll online at www.etsy.com/shop/clothespindolls or visit me on YouTube at youtube.com/clothespindolls where I show you how to make your own Sugar Plum Clothespin dolls and other cute handmade items. Enjoy the day!

I was tack-sewing the body of my latest big rando bag this afternoon, and when I reached the end of a seam I stopped the machine and was about to lift the presser foot when the light fixture went pop! and the light bulb shot out as if launched from a 120V cannon.
It looks like one of the wire inlets eroded through and when the air rushed in the filament exploded, snapping the bulb off and launching it onto the worktable.
I hope I can find a nice LED light bulb as a replacement.
