It's Starting To Look A Lot Like Christmas

... at least in my studio.

The Holiday orders are arriving, so I am making many, many, many lists and checking them twice, at least.

So you can see what I am talking about, here are some pictures from my studio.

This collection is on its way to Missouri.


These petite plaques are in production and will go to California and
Texas after a little more work and a lot more varnish.

This basket is complete and heading to Kentucky.


The Santa canvases are staying here in Colorado, but when the bee
boxes next to them are complete, they will be flying off the shelf
to Missouri.

So yes, even though the temperature is still in the high eighties and the leaves are still on the trees, my studio feels just like Christmas.
And it's the most wonderful time of the year.

Bird, Paper, Scissors

I wanted to share some pictures of my booth from the September 2010 Paris Street Market in Littleton, Colorado.

Bird Tissue Box Covers
At each Market, I try to have a theme and birds took center stage this time.


Paperweights


I also brought a few paperweights. I usually do not work with glass to0 much but paperweights are small enough that even I can make them. I love the look of decoupage under glass but I miss my crackle effect too much. So as soon as I can figure out how to crackle and decoupage under glass, you may see a few more items.


Bee Note Cards

And last but not least, here are my Bee Note Cards. Just perfect for a little note.

The last Paris Market for the 2010 Season in October 2nd. Hope to see you there.
