Reorganizing my Studio

by annalee on April 29, 2008

Well I have ‘bit the bullitt’ and begrudgingly decided to reorganize my studio. Recalicitrant isn’t a word I use to describe myself, but geez I am being totally recalcitrant about making this change. You know in a former life I was dubbed the ‘ambassador of change’ at a major Canadian corporation… so what is going on with me these days? It must be old age. I’m so stuck in my ways about the layout of my creative workspace – not my usual flexible resilient self at all. Or maybe my resistance to this change has something to do with being born in the Year of the Dog and you know what they say about teaching old dogs new tricks…

So David went out and bought me two wonderful caddies in which I can likely store most of my gemstone inventory. I pulled them apart and stacked one on top of the other to save space, so now I have a tower of 16 drawers. But that’s about as far as I got…

As soon as I placed the first colour of gemstones into a drawer I felt lost. How can I create when all my materials are stuffed away out of view? This getting organized could very well have a negative impact on my creative process. Heaven forbid! I’ll post updates as this project takes shape.

On to the actual update. Due to the rising prices of precious metals, I’ll be introducing more copper, brass and other base metal alternatives here at SassyDLite. I recently found these brass stampings and brass findings that will work nicely into boho luxe pieces. Baser metals doesn’t mean we have to cut back on style! Drop me a line with comments. I’d like to hear what materials, colours and styles you’re looking for this season.

At Gahooletree, our move towaAriana Braceletrds greater reliance on luxe gemstones is underway. The Ariana bracelet features 160 carats of genuine gemstones in an eye catching palatte appropriate for year round use. This is a very comfortable piece of wearable artwork. Stay tuned for more news and updates.
