The studio closet is finally finished! I cannot express how awesome it is to have all of that functional storage in this space now. It was one of my goals this year to make my workspaces more functional and that has been accomplished in my studio and home office.

the toledo stool & equipto cart
There are two things that have been on my shopping list for a while – an antique adjustable drafting stool and a rolling cart, both for my studio.

From the moment we first moved in, I … Read More
