On Schedule


I'm so surprised. Monday, we made a schedule of everything that needed to be done, everyday. We are sticking to it and it's working our pretty good. I have some paperwork to be done in the evenings but I'm not in the studio working every night. I could get used to this.

We got an order out today and then worked on some pillows and got some ordering done.

I had an appointment this afternoon to work on some panels and roman shades. I think it is going to turn out really nice.

I love doing window treatments. When you love what you do, it doesn't ever seem like work and you could find yourself "working" all the time before you realize what is happening. I have to be careful about that. I do love it, though.

The above picture is of the nursery for the first grandbaby of one of my favorite clients. I made the bedding and window treatments but they are so talented to decorate the nursery like they did. It is such a serene place to sit up nights feeding a sweet little baby. It's the kind of room you just want to go in and sit down and rest. Prayers and best wished go out to the Horne family on their pending arrival. They didn't find out if it was a girl or boy so double the excitement.

What a Headache


I have had the worst headache all day. Good thing nothing required a lot of thinking today.

I bought an iron. Not the really expensive one but this one was pretty pricey. We needed it today with ironing those linen panels. Linen that was in a bag for about 2 years. It took several hours.

We started on some crib bedding today. The fabrics are so cute. I can't wait to see how it turns out. I love making crib bedding. The prices for custom really aren't that bad. You would spend more going to Babies are us and getting one of their sets. (Unless you get expensive fabrics). Then, you get to pick what you want and no one else would have it. I like it when parents choose fabrics that are their style and not just "girl" or "boy". You can take sophisticated fabrics and accessorize them to go in an infants room. That way, things can grow with the child instead of having to change everything every couple of years. Changing things, though, can be fun too!!!
