I just realized that the spring show is ONE WEEK away!!! How does it always seem to creep up like that?!?! We’ve had practically NO dry weather for the last month, so I’ve not gotten any of my big projects done. Hopefully today and tomorrow will stay dry enough to do some power painting. Forgive me if posts are few and far between for the next week.
I put up a new sign in my space at Stars yesterday. I really LIKED the old one (which I made) better, BUT, it took up a lot of valuable ‘face’ space in the very front, which I feel is better used to show PRODUCT. So, this is the new sign I designed and ordered from VistaPrint. It’s corrugated plastic, so I can screw it to the TOP of the fence backing, leaving more room for product.
NOW I just have to decide what to do with this old sign! It will be easy enough to cover up the existing wording with more torn book pages. Will probably HAVE to leave it as a sign of some sort since it has holes drilled in it for the ribbon. I’m thinking something Paris . . .
I didn’t do a lot of work on the space yesterday. Mostly just wanted to pull the little bit of leftover Easter stuff, and tidy up. Filled this front vignette with white frames and bird and next things. (this is where the Easter stuff was)
Before going in I had thought I would do this in ‘beach’ decor, but so much of the beach stuff had sold that I didn’t have enough. So, it’s birds by default. Gotta work on more beach stuff for the next fluff.
A lot of the bird stuff had sold as well, I just had MORE of it to begin with.
All the black and turquoise frames had sold, I guess I’ll emphasize white then!
I wonder if that ‘home’ sign would fit on top of one of those bird nest assemblages I did?!?!?
Sweet little jute bee skep I made. You can’t really see it in this photo, but there is a little gold bee charm tied to the grubby tag.
Lots of ‘finial’ type things; big and small.
Vintage baby boy blue goods.
Vintage apothecary bottles.
Little bird collage.
The LAST birdcage! I started out with 7 or 8; down to this last one new. Gotta get out and do some shabby shopping soon!
Simple framed egg collages.
Several different styles of double frame egg prints. Not enough room to spread them out, so they’re just stacked for now.
Signs. Been working on LOTS more for the show and to stock at Stars soon.
Assorted faux finials and architectural elements. Need to bring these down off that shelf. but I don’t know WHAT to replace them with. Can’t put anything too small up there or it will get lost.
