Keeping missus Miko happy

[Miko]

At the moment my modelling space is a simple IKEA 'Lack' coffee table under the window in the lounge, this can be irksome to 'she who must be obeyed' having what she calls 'all you clutter' in our living space, so, I needed to think more aesthetically, gone are the cardboard boxes and clip top containers and in with the stylish wooden boxes and a modern grey weave effect box tucked under the table. . . .

So, at anytime I'm not in modelling mode. . .




in the missus Miko compliant boxes . . .





. . . and in two minutes, I'm ready to go!!




Do you need to keep 'er indoors or other housemate on your good side?

Miko (I'd use super cool 'Muji' furniture but it's ruinously expensive so budget but still cool IKEA will have to do!)

A trip to the garden centre works for me to appease SWMBO and keep her at arms length and away from my corner of heaven. (That's the bench in the garage!!!)

All nice and tidy hidden away. Not sure I would have those bottles of glue, thinners and decal solutions laid on thier sides. Mrs M would not be a happy bunny over the pong!

Bottle and jar lids screwed down firmly is important for sure! I model most of the time while missus Miko is out of the house, by the time she returns the place smells like a model shop! Who'd complain about that!! Airbrushing is done at the back door, the entirety of Earth's atmosphere is my ventilation!
