This blog exists to encourage all those who have ever wanted--and needed!--a tiny getaway close to home. A workshop, playhouse, garden shed, sanctuary, mini-greenhouse, studio, home office; whatever it is you need, it IS doable, with some sacrifice, imagination, and compromise.
It helps if you're handy, too.

Evolution of a Workspace
Originally I had thought I'd just have the table Joseph built for me up when I needed it...turns out I need it almost all the time! In the summer, when we sometimes have the French doors open, I may move it, but for now it's a wonderful place to work.
As you can see, it's MUCH roomier than the little oak TV table I used before...we've also eaten on it, I've done the videos for my classes and YouTube...all in all it's earned its place.
Meanwhile, things ebb and flow out there...I put a small candle heater away in the shed's shed--it was just taking up space. I hung more up on the walls to liberate floor space. We took the photofloods back over to the house since I'm not shooting videos right now, and reorganized books and art supplies...
I seldom use my little footstool box, so it may go, too. When you're dealing with a place that's only 10 x 10, you really need to simplify, often! It's kind of nice...

New table...
I'd been doing my videos in front of the big French windows at the shed, which worked great...except I was doing them on a folding TV table. My sweet Joseph just built me a terrific folding table that's still small enough to fit in well in the 10 x 10' space, will fold completely out of the way if we need to, but is big enough to spread out my art supplies!
