closer look no.1

closer look no.2

finished fairie-tale table for earthday

when my good friend Michelle Strine of The Studio and Art Bar asked me to help her re-vamp her stores and find some new artists and crafters I was so excited…I could use what I know about decorating/merchandising and my catalogs of all the things I wanted to have in a store and pick some out for her…here’s the first day of work ( oh i wish i had a better camera…)

so this would bee a good time to introduce my new-ish business…new-ish because it’s something i’ve been thinking about doing for a few years…here is the link to the temporary website…prices and all services are not updated…but i’m so excited to start i have to share it now…

New Items…

…coming soon!

I PROMISE this time!

We’re ready for Spring! “Go Green in the City” this past weekend proved that!

We have bees, and bugs and birds! Oh my!

Along with new spring headbands and purses from Nicole Rae Styer and stained glass from Fran Shortino!

We ALSO moved spaces two weeks ago…look for us by the piano ( if you’re not from York, that means dead-center near the seating area)!

soft stuff!

Recycled Argyle sock and sweaters become dog toys ( no squeakers! if your dogs are like ours they rip apart all of their toys to get the squeaker out!), and cheerful felt birds that can be used as pin-cushions or simply to brighten up a dull space!

OPENING DAY!

So happy to finally be open at Market…it happened so fast but it felt like months.
Today was my first day, and I spent most of the first hour hanging Fran’s stained glass stars and straightening up…three sales…a commission…and 5 hours later…I closed up and begrudgingly went home.
It’s such a woderful atmosphere…great vendors ( I’m between Lizzy the candy lady and a travel agency booth that I have yet to see open…but the soup guys are great too…
Can’t wait till I get some pictures up here and have time to really start doing some newsletter..build up a mailing list and really jump in more. But right now I am off to sew more squeak-less recycled argyle dog toys…they seem to be a hit

More to come very, very soon!
