The new, smaller but better closet contains pretty much everything that was in the walk-in closet that was twice the size. In fact, see those 3 large boxes smack in the middle of the picture? Those did not fit into the walk-in closet before and were just sitting on the floor in the (Last - 1) Bedroom. Now they fit:
Years of photos (both family photos and from my photography days) occupy the top shelf, including my collection of cameras. I think I will sell some of the old photos during Portland Open Studios this fall.
I did have to leave out the box of wrapping paper and other rolled up things, as they're too tall for the way the new closet is organized:
In this shot, you see the biggest change in Phase II of the studio remodeling project—the room opened up quite a bit from closet-downsizing, and my work table is now oriented the other way. Also the (Last - 1) Bedroom has not yet been painted:
Turn to the right, and here's the bonus wall:
Turn to the right again:
And again:
Again:
Again and we're back to where we started. The symmetry on the two sides of the new closet is a coincidence. I only just noticed it now as I'm looking at the photo:
I was thinking of attaching a bone to this hand...or maybe attaching a bat to each of the fingers:
But on the other hand (I've been waiting to say that all night...) is the chain of hearts:
And now I must go get some sleep. I've been working 10+ hours for many days, and sleeping only 6 or so, trying to get this finished so I can get back to some real work soon. So that's what's on tomorrow's agenda.

so now your table is right in front of the closet of the last-1 bedroom? Do you have two doors for this new last bedroom now?
shumei
You mean the big, waist high table? No, that one is still in front of the old walk-in closet (now a regular sized closet) of the original Last Bedroom. It's just oriented in a different direction now.
And yes, I have two doors into the studio, which makes a nice little loop.
wow, this looks marvelous. by the way my daughter loved the mare and foal print...
Velma -- glad to hear that!
that's awesome. are you saving the studio warming for the open studios tour? ;)
A Studio Warming Party! I hadn't thought of that. Maybe I'll have one...or should I save it for until Portland Open Studios?
given your schedule maybe you should combine it. alternatively, you could have a studiowarming the friday night before open studios (if you're ready by then), or the post-open-studio celebration sunday night.
