Rally for the Team

Image
Tomorrow is the big day, we are headed to STATE!  I spent all day yesterday making these lovely towels for the parents to cheer our girls on to victory! Rally Towels After having several issues with the Cricut Design Space on my computer, I downloaded the app on my Ipad.  My Cricut Explore had come with the Bluetooth adapter, but I didn't ever think I would need it.  Thank goodness I had it yesterday.  The app worked like a charm and I will never go back to the computer version! P.S. The Royals are up two games in the World Series!  TAKE THE CROWN!

Busy Weekend

Kansas City Royals are the American League Champions! Friday was a long night...rain delay and finishing up a few last minute items for craft show number two.  Saturday was a huge success with the craft show and my daughter's high school volleyball team won Sub-State! Today I have already rearranged inventory and am making a list of what I need for craft show number 3 in two weeks.  But since I have neglected my house for the past week I won't be working on any of that until tomorrow! Happy Sunday!

Take the Crown

My Dream Chairs

Image
Remember this photo from a few days ago? My Dream Table and Chairs Well I found them, the chairs.  They are not exactly the same, but they are Thonet Sweetheart Chairs!!  I am in love!  Thanks to a lovely local shop owner and her connections, these babies are mine.  And to make this find even better, if possible...I bought six!  Two for the office and four more to put in the kitchen.  The chairs had seen better days, but with a light sanding and a coat of Hazelnut ReVAX from Shabby Paints they are fabulous!  I finished three today and hope to finish the other three tomorrow.   My Chair!

Drama and Orders

This week has been nothing but drama.  I realized with four teenage children there is bound to be drama, but something new everyday?  Really? Hence there are no photos to share of the office as I haven't been able to finish the new desk.   I did manage to find a table for the office, the top will be replaced with marble.  I also purchased a very nice piano bench in place of a chair for now, but really want those chairs! Amidst all the drama, custom orders keep coming.  I am so appreciative of all them, but need to realized there is only one of me.  There is no secret elf who comes in while I'm sleeping to finish all I couldn't that day.  If only...  I will be purchasing a large desktop calendar to help with planning and giving clients an accurate fabrication time.   A rush charge will be offered to those needing their order within 3-5 business days. Three custom orders finished, three more to go, and then onto craft show inventory. ...
