Working on my studio

Wow, I can't believe I've ignored my new little blog lately. I've been so busy trying to put my studio together and finish up a bunch of orders. I ordered a new piece of furniture to store all my fabrics in. Unfortunately, it's not going to hold everything. When you buy on-line you just don't really know what you are getting. The drawers are only 4" deep. And they described it as "deep drawers", Yeah Right! Anyway, I'll just have to make do for now.

Everything is such a mess right now. It's really hard to work, even get inspired when everything is upside down. But ...

I did manage to paint some really cute aprons for a customer the other day. She plans to give them to her hairdressers for Christmas. I've posted them on my Flickr site. Check them out at www.flickr.com/graciemaedesigns





I've sold a few items on Etsy.com as well. Check out my store at www.graciemaehandbags.etsy.com

The little tooth fairy pillows are doing very well. I've sold several of them locally.


Well, gotta run. I'm meeting my fabulous diva friend "Candie" for lunch and possibly a movie. I've seen the new Johnny Depp movie Public Enemies, but I can sit and watch him again anytime. Then there's Julie and Julia. Meryl Streep at her best! So as Julia would say "Bon Appetit"
