Things Are Moving Along Nicely.




So, the garage sale didn't do as well as I expected. :/ BUT it's ok. The whole goal of it was to get rid of everything in the shop and after we put up signs saying "FREE STUFF", everyone and their moms were there.
EVERYTHING is gone, NOW the goal is to get the shop cleaned up and ready for our new studio. Clean up is not going to be an easy task, but I'm sure it will be fun with my partner in crime, Chelsea. The studio area even comes with our own pigeon mascot. Haha! We're both going to use the studio for the things we make and sell on Etsy. There's EVEN talk of us joining forces soon. Stay tuned for that!

While waiting for customers at our garage sale, we decided to make some of these pretties. They'll be for sale soon on The Crafty Fox Etsy shop.


Oh, and I finally dyed my hair red, but you can't even tell. :(


Today, I finally got started on Kimber's blanket. So far, I'm happy about this blanket and I'm going to actually finish it!


Whoa...I got a lot done in the last few days. There's still a lot more to do! AND Halloween is just around the corner. We STILL don't know what we're going to dress up as. Any suggestions??

Garage Sale!!




Chelsea and I are going to help my mom with a HUGE garage sale at her shop this week and we're SO EXCITED!! You see, my mom owns a small strip mall and two of her shops haven't been used in years because we've been using it for storing garage sale items for at least five years. My mom kept saying that she would eventually get to it, but this time it's going to be done because...once the rooms are cleared out, my mom is going to allow Chelsea and me to use it as our art/sewing/craft room until she finds out what she wants to do with it. This is PERFECT for both of us. Chealsea and I both need some extra room to create and get our businesses going a little faster...AND there is an alteration shop next door with some adorable old ladies that are willing to help me sew!! This is exactly what I needed to get myself motivated.
