Tour to My Jewelry Making Studio

I meant to post this for a long time, but everything else in life are keeping me busy. Today I am showing you my work desk, a place where I made most of my jewelry. I know, it's too clean / neat / tidy for jewelry making, but please understand that I have two curious toddlers at home, it only make sense if I would keep all my tools and materials EVERYTIME before I exit my workroom.

Lighting - very important. I choose LED natural day light for work so that it won't get too warm as I work.

I take note of everything, materials used, tools required, everything, only then reproduction of a design can be possible.

That's my sewing machine on the left, it is extremely underused. Foldio is a life saver, good product picture is everything when you are selling online; hammers and mallets, nothing fancy, but having the right tools to do the right task saves me lots of time and strength.

There's a laser printer that's not in the picture, I cannot live without it either.

Er... because Malaysia is just too warm and I can't be switching on the air-con all the time.

 My little work area.

My RÅSKOG Utility cart from IKEA.

My new year resolution? Spend more time being creative in this area. :)

Storage for beads - MUJI Acrylic Stacking Case

This video is to show you how do I store my beads and stone-settings.

I purchased all my stones in bulk, so it is critical to get them very organized to save me time from searching them from their original packaging.

I use Muji Acrylic Stacking Cases to store them, it comes in 3 different configuration: Large, small, and stacking case, I am using the large and the stacking case version. The beauty of it is that I could unscrew them from a group and group one container with another, cause I don't usually need all of the beads, just one or two may be.

In this video I am grouping Navette Settings container with Navette stones, to see how I set stones for Navette beads, here's the video link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mlvjhbz0sYg
