Antique Mall

It has been just nutso around here lately. Too much going on. I have some space at the antique mall here in Colorado Springs (the largest in the state, by the way — just in case you’re in town). I’ve been neglecting it because I’ve been so busy working on online stuff. Tsk. Tsk. Shame on me.

It turns out that interior designers working on our local Parade of Homes have been hitting the mall for unique items. Isn’t that great?! Shop Indie! LOL. I did really, really well in June and on track to do really, really well in July. I must get more stuff down there Sunday morning!

One of my favorite quirky pieces sold, though. A plastic furry bunny with reindeer horns. Bummer He was my booth watcher — he’s been there since last July. Customers would point and laugh, but nobody bought him … until last week. I’m gonna miss that guy!

Knit and Crochet Classes

This Saturday, I begin teaching knitting and crochet classes at the Air Force Academy. One class should be parent and child. I’m really looking forward to passing on my skills. My main aim is to be encouraging — I know learning something new can cause stress. My classes run for 3 weeks. Of course, I’ll take a camera and blog about it

Tomorrow morning I have to finish typing up the simple patterns and the samples to take to class. But, tonight — I think a glass (or two) of Sauvignon Blanc is in order.

And, finally, I played around with this blog today.  What do you think?  I’m testing different colors and art in preparation for my ad in Romantic Homes.  I want to get a “look”, a “brand” and stick with it. So, your feedback is very, very welcomed!

I have to say — I’ve been working in the draft.blogger and it’s about to drive me insane, because it doesn’t space paragraphs and pictures very well. Grrrrr. So, if you subscribe to the feed version and you get 10 different versions … that’s why. I apologize
