School is in full force

John has been back to school for a few weeks now. We're starting to get into the swing of things again, getting up early, dinner, homework, bath and then off to bed. He is bringing home about an hour of homework to complete each night.

John also hae been playing football, and dad is coaching. That is taking a lot of time on both of their parts, but they are having a great time. Their first game was this past Saturday and they won 40 - 19. Not too bad for their first game of the season.

I will be checking out the best day to close the shoppe and watch one of their games. When I get that figured out I'll let everyone know what Saturday I'll be closed. I'll give you at least a couple of weeks notice.

What I am working on this week.

I have so many things going on the last several days, it is hard to know where to start. The weather has been beautiful in Colorado, and I am getting lots done.

I added items to my website, and my etsy store. Yes, I know that it is about time. I added a link on the sidebar of the newest items listed on Etsy. Jump on over and take a look.

I have several new items in the store including new primitive sheep, cows, pigs, roosters, pumpkins, old cookbooks, a couple more black cats, tart warmers, and so much mroe that I can't remember. I am in the process of getting new pictures, and will get them posted real soon.

Old Town Lafayette Peach Festival

Old Town Lafayette Peach Festival is gone for another year and was a huge success. There were lots ot people in town enjoying peaches and the shoppes and sights of Old Town Lafayette.

The truck of peaches at our corner sold out, although they were $40.00 a box. Mark and John got a couple of peaches each while they were they there and they were a dollar each. I think that it was a little high, as did customers.

What I am working on this week.

I have gotten a lot finished this week, and I am working on more. Yes, I am working on pics (battery is charging), but you'll find them in the store already.

Primitive Stars with sayings, Primitive black cats with primitive pumpkins, Vintage jello molds pin cushions, and Primitve stars with primitive black cats. I also finished some stitchery pillows and I am in the process of getting them stuffed as I speak.

I have added a few primitive Americana items to my website. And now I am so excited, I just found the pair of arms for one of my dolls in process. I don't have to make new ones. Yea!! I am also putting some of my completed stitchery's into frames. Hope to have those ready to go by next week. So much to do and so little time.

Speaking of so little time, John goes back to school in less than 2 weeks. Can you believe that summer has gone so quickly? I sure can't, and I still have to go shopping for school supplies.

Back to stuffing and framing. Hope you all have a great weekend.

Oh, before I forget - I can be found on facebook, and twitter.

Art Night Out - Huge Success

Last night was our last Art Night Out on the calendar at the moment. The different groups and merchants will be meeting to discuss what worked and what didn't, and then they will schedule more dates. Hopefully they will set them on a certain Friday each month so everyone can count on coming down for that Friday night.

I'll post more info when I have it. I would like to thank everyone who made it possible, and of course the community who enjoyed it immensely. Every time we have one of these I get lots of comments and questions if we're going to do more.

We can now be found on Facebook.com
