A few things...

For the big show this weekend. This was a drawer front up cycled into a coat rack.
Instead of just numbering them I went with French numbers.
An old earing used on a glamorized bulletin board.

and a new beach sign and shells
I am keeping myself busy trying to get it all ready!

Chicks Along the Canal

I have been busy finishing up my goodies for the big show. I have also been painting signs to direct shoppers to us. What do you think? Would this sign spark your curiosity?

Stone Mill

Remember the large order I had for 17 signs? It was for The Stone Mill in Little Falls. The owners wanted to update the list of businesses while making a statement.
Here are the signs before.
And after, they make a huge impact as you go in.

Less then a week until The Chicks Along the Canal. It is going to be a busy week.

We Are Home

What a busy week. We traveled about 1300 miles this week. A lot of driving but so much fun! We celebrated Grandma's 85th birthday. It was so fun seeing everyone. It has been way too long.
We did lots of walking
Visited a nearby cemetary



Walked some hills



Just relaxed and enjoyed ourselves!
No I gotta get busy The Chicks Along the Canal is one week away!

Off we go...

We are officially on vacation! Going to Ohio to help celebrate my Grandma's 85th birthday! She is the sweetest lady! I always had so much fun at her house. I wish I could spend more time with her.
See you all next week!

Another one done!

Only 18 more to go. Seriously I have 18 signs to finish. Not gonna happen by vacation so they will wait until I return.

This one is for my sister who is going through some tough times. It will hang in her room as a gentle reminder that she is a new creation!

Horse

A custom sign for a special little girl who loves her horse more than anything!

The Mustard Seed

My good friends from The Mustard Seed had a vision for a sign they could attach to their tent at the Farmers Market they sell at every Thursday. Here are the signs I did for them. This is just a sneak preview as I am waiting for the final pictures with them hanging from their tent. (Hopefully this Thursday, hint hint Juli!)



I am busier then ever, I keep getting more sign orders and emails for pricing. So stay tuned I will have lots of signs to share as I am hoping to get them all done before my vacation starts Friday. Hope everyone has a great Sunday!

Vintage Dresser

Remember the dresser I was telling you about? Here it is. We found it in a basement leftover from an estate sale, its good to have connections because you get to go in a pick through whats left for a steal. This dresser was in the basement falling apart. I almost didn't take it but I could resist the carved drawers and glass knobs. All we had to do is put it back together. The locks even still work with a skeleton key. I just love the patina!



Anyone else find any treasures this weekend?
