Over Christmas break I got a little time to work in the clay studio. I’ve also had school canceled a few days this winter so I’ve had a little extra time to put up shelves and get things organized.
new shelf – glaze area
I added a shelf at the top of the glaze area which I’m using for finished work and random objects that I don’t really use that often. Now I can use the two bottom shelves for glazes, chemicals and other glaze related tools and equipment. I might try to come up with a row of drawers or containers for storing chemicals.

I rearranged the small set of shelves on the floor and the table. Now I have better access to the whole table and I can move pots from the table to the long shelf against the west wall easily. And I feel like everything is less crammed into the corner. I haven’t glazed anything using this arrangement so I’m excited to try it out.
new shelf at the top
The other shelf I added is above the wedging table/workbench against the north wall. With this extra top shelf I have a lot of space to keep the stuff that I rarely use. Now I can use the easier-to-reach shelves for the stuff that I use regularly. Now I just need some more tools!
shelves near the sink
I also added one more set of shelves near the sink. I just bought the plastic, easy to put together shelves when they were on sale at Menard’s. I use them for drying plastic buckets and containers after I wash them.
