Workshop tour

I’ve been having fun in the workshop this weekend. Music blasting, singing along, and making a mess :)

I took these photos yesterday morning before I started making, so it’s not usually this neat and tidy! Here’s a tour around my work space…

The shelves are now full of vases, bowls, coasters, clocks, pots and buttons all at different stages. There are sheets of newspaper everywhere and blobs of glaze on the work surfaces. Wooden boards are propped up on top of the kiln with pieces that are drying.


I’ve set up this mini showcase area at the back, to display some work for when people come and visit.


I could do with some more storage space but I’m happy with the way things are at the moment, it’s cosy!


I like having inspirational images in front of me whilst making. Each time I look up at these images I’ve collected on the wall, I see something different and a new idea for a surface design pops into my head.


I’ve just had a tea & cake break, and I’m heading back out to the workshop now! I’ve got some dandelion vases to decorate, and glazed pieces to load into the kiln.


Hope you enjoyed my workshop tour!

    What a lovely space! I've spread my stuff all over the house and I really must make time to organise my workroom. I'd love one of those spaces you see in craft magazines! You have inspired me, so thank you :) x

    Looks like a wonderful space to work in – I love the idea of permanent a display area too, much easier than frantically trying to put something together if you have a visitor coming!

    I am another nosey one who just loves to see other peoples studios so thank you so much for sharing.

    I plan at some point in my lifetime (!!) to sort out my studio better and if this ever happens I will blog about my space too…

    You must be thrilled at your work space, it looks so inviting, no wonder you are creative when you sit there. Do you have music blasting when you work? I always think it helps to have a good sing song!! xx

    I love having a virtual nosy around other people's workspaces, so thanks for sharing, Charlotte.

    I love your idea of a display area – one day I may get round to something similar (but don't hold your breath!!) x
