Swings and Roundabouts

Life is just full of swings and roundabouts

One minute you are up 

and then the world comes crashing down.

I guess it is all about how you handle it.

I have been working very hard to 

get the new studio up and running.

I had lots of help especially my friend Lou 

who painted and carried her way through some annual leave.

 My sister's husband's Aunty and Uncle

 who were camping in our paddock  helped me install the sliding door. 

Polycarbonate will let some morning light into the studio.

An air conditioner was installed 

into the wall space next to the door. 

Lucky as we have already experienced 40 degree afternoons.

The children were quite pink on that day as we only had fans at that stage. 

Brave and determined creative kids to come to class on such a hot day.

 There is one last bit of wall still to build.

The section above the front door.

I have to get the sign writing off, it is upside down and back the front.

The door was from a shop that sold balloons and fireworks.

There has been a lot of recycling on this project.

It has come a long way...and 

we have already held some classes in there.

The first after school students, Amilia and Sasha

This space is going to be fantastic.

I have been using it in the evenings to 

make some things for Christmas markets.

First of which is due out of the kiln today.

Hopefully they are all fantastic and worthy of a post later in the week
