Waiting to paint

The good news is… we’ve got drywall. On the down side, I am waiting for the contractor to sand the walls so that we can paint. I’m incredibly impatient so the waiting isn’t going well. The weekend is going to be long, and the weather is supposed to be rainy on and off. The perfect painting weekend. Maybe he’ll show up tomorrow.

Meanwhile here’s a picture of the studio with the new sheet rock.

Almost all of my polymer supplies are buried in boxes in the storage area that’s behind the open doorway. I had opened most of the boxes and I knew where most of my stuff was before construction started. Now the boxes are really piled up and jumbled and I don’t know where anything is hiding. So instead of making beads, I have been knitting and felting. Here’s my first One Skein clutch purse:

I really love it, although it does need a bit of ornamentation. This is a fun and simple pattern, brainless and brief, which works for me right now. LOL

    Nice purse - I’m sure you have no shortage of ideas for embellishment! I’ve always wished I could knit or chrochet, just so that I’d have a backdrop for some of my claythings :-) I’ve been playing around with knitting looms lately, so maybe one of these days I’ll make something useful like that. Enjoy putting your studio together! –Lisa

    yay for sheetrock! It looks like it will be a great space when it’s all done.

    And I *love* your clutch! I need to get going on my next one - with the “right” wool this time. :)
