Contributor post by Cindy from Cynhumphrey

Here’s what Rita has to say about her workspace:

I’m Rita Szöllősi, a Hungarian artist. In Budapest there is a studio room and my carpet gallery. Nice hills and green gardens around us. There is always good air. We’ve lived here since we got home from Iran, where I lived with my family for 6 years. I make my pillows from my old handmade kilims. We have a cute dog, Pakoca, who is always in my studio with me. In this picture there the dog is sleeping in front of my fireplace.

Today we visit the workspace of Mairi from mairidesign who sells stained glass home decor and jewellery. Please take a moment to get to know Mairi!

Here’s what Mairi has to say about her workspace:

My workspace is a corner of my living room (I often take over the whole room) and it tends to be pretty messy. I’m using found pieces of furniture and plan to paint them and get a large cube unit for keeping all of my bits and pieces better organised so that I, hopefully, contain it all in the corner.

This year, I’m finally putting real effort into designing and making a go of it through Etsy. I like getting to the photographing stage and listing the final piece ready for the world to find. Whenever someone buys my work, I feel so appreciative that someone, somewhere likes what I do and will enjoy it for years to come.

I’m currently celebrating 30 years since I started working with stained glass. I trained with a local artist then went on to work in a large glazing company. I have since graduated from Glasgow School of Art with a degree in Silversmithing and Jewellery Design, I’ve worked as a graphic designer, a gift shop retail manager and an English teacher. I still teach English, here in Prague, and love being able to travel around this beautiful city taking photos of the stunning architecture.

Thank you for the opportunity to share my story and pics of my little workspace.

Here’s what Madhura has to say about her workspace:

I am Madhura. It’s been 2 years I am hooked by this beautiful art of quilting. Then I got myself a sewing machine and my journey as a quilter started….
Initially my kitchen platform my cutting table and dining table was the place where my machine use to set up. Since 1 year now I have set up a cutting table and sewing place in one small room of our new home in the same apartment. It’s been great fun to work in my new setup and it gives me great comfort in working. I thank my family members for the support and I am thankful as I am doing the work that I love doing.

Today we visit the workspace of Lisajoy Sachs from Saxdsign who sells natural opals, gem stones, other stone supplies for jewellery making. Please visit her shop and favourite some items, maybe even buy something!!

Here’s what Lisajoy has to say about her workspace:

I’ve been in the jewelry designing/making industry for about 20 years now, and before then I was a professional glass blower for 8 years. I’ve pretty much always owned my own business, and consider myself a maker of things.

Right here in the Lovely City of Baltimore I have a really large studio it is about 23×23 feet with 9 foot ceilings – it is JAM packed with lots of projects.

Less than a year ago I learned how to make my own cabochons and do lapidary work – since then I have sold off some of my glass blowing equipment to make room for lapidary equipment, and I even have a hole drilling station now.

My biggest problem is organization – so every couple of weeks I pick a spot to organize – last week was the “Hole drilling” station. I can drill a hole in Most of my cabochons now. It has been such a success for me to be able to add that option for my clients – I am probably drilling holes every day now since the drill press was added to my shop.
