What's happening!

Hello everyone! I have finally started painting a little again. I wanted to let you all know that I am having problems with my selling site. For some reason it doesn't work! If you click on "my offerings" or my products it will not take you to the site. I am trying to get ahold of the customer service, I have been emailing them like crazy, but no one gets back to me. Hopefully they will fix the problem soon or I will be looking for somewhere else to go.

I have some things I need to take to the antique shop this weekend, then I will be, hopefully if my booth gets fixed, putting some things on here and ebay again.

I have also still been working on some Christmas items....I am trying to stock up for this year! I hope to prevent the holiday work overload, if that is even possible!hee hee Plus I am thinking of trying a craft show this fall so I have been doing some things that are not what I normally do! I have been sewing! I will give you some sneak peeks of things as I finish them! It has been pretty fun trying something new.

I am also looking to put some things on here other than just my painting. I am going to start making the scented sprays and refresher oils. I am excited about that! I hope to have that up and running in the next month so be looking out. I am still looking for other things to compliment my stuff but haven't decided on anything else forsure. My goal this year is to keep things going more! I am always open to ideas.....what are you looking for?

I better get back to painting! Until next time, lots of blessings! Chris

The Christmas decorations are back in the closet....

and the house is all clean.....except for my work area! I got so behind on everything I had to do this year. I was working right up to Christmas week, shopping at the last minute and didn't even get to do any baking except for some sugar cookies for my nephew who came home from bootcamp! I was way too stressed out. Every year I swear I am not going to get that busy but it is so hard....I hate to tell anyone no!

Next year(hee hee), I am going to be ahead....my plan is to keep painting things up now so I am stocked up real good, then I can relax and enjoy the holidays! We will see how it goes!

I think I am going to spend some time cleaning and organizing my work space, then of course I have to do the taxes, then get all the paperwork filled out for Erica to go to college. She got accepted into the St. Louis College of Pharmacy for the fall 2010 semester. We are so excited! That is the only place she wanted to go. Then after all that I am going to get back to work!

I need to get to the antique shop and take out any Christmas that is left and put some everyday and spring things in....and some more key earrings! I also made some really neat new necklaces for Christmas presents that I want to put in there too. Some more of my jewelry might show up on here this year. I am really loving making it!

Boy I alreay have a big list of to do's!hee hee If all goes well, I should start selling some things on here and on ebay again in a few weeks.

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and I am looking forward to sharing a great new year with all of you! I will leave you with a peek at our tree and our family Christmas picture....taken at Mom's on Christmas Eve. Best wishes, Chris
