I ended up making 6 signs today - 5 for my booth and 1 to give to my mom's charity group for their silent auction - check out their flyer if you wanna take a look at their charity week info - they support some great causes!
The signs I made today are made out of the barn wood I have on hand. I spent most of the morning cutting and sanding planks of wood to get ready for painting. I went with the "love" and "laugh" sayings - the love seems to be very popular and laugh is one of my favorites...I have it in several places in my house. How was you be sad, mad, or in a bad mood if you're laughing?!
Then, I can't make a group of signs without including some UGA signs - who doesn't love a good "Go Dawgs" sign- and they have been a top seller in my booth.
Here are the signs I made today - they are already in my booth at Queen of Hearts in Buford.
This evening I delivered the church pew and chest I did earlier in the week. My client LOVED them! I was so happy. She is so funny - I didn't send her any pictures of them on purpose because I wanted her to be surprised. I knew she didn't have any social media accounts so I *thought* I was safe to post. Her husband told me tonight she went and Googled me and pulled TGP up on facebook (since my site is public anyone can see it) and she saw the pictures. But, she said it was even better in person (which I agree with her - and that is why I am weary to post or send pictures.)
Both pieces went so well in her beautiful home. One thing I have enjoyed about this venture is meeting new people and reconnecting with old friends. I have had several of my clients that I was friends with in high school or college - and it is great to reconnect. And, as always, I appreciate your business!
Below are the pictures of the pew and chest in my clients home.
Tomorrow, I will start on the buffet I picked up Monday evening - this piece is so beautiful - so with a new stain job on top and painted on the bottom - it is going to be a knock out! Below is the buffet I am starting tomorrow....I am excited about this piece because I will be waxing the handles with a silver wax I picked up from Chalk it Up! Can't wait to see the results!
Until tomorrow,
-Julie
