Moving to a New Studio!!!

We are moving to a new studio location--- even if it is only just down the hall! We are downsizing our space a bit and a great new space is opening up at the end of next month that is a little smaller than ours (around 150 sq. ft. smaller). It seems as though we've become pack rats lately and have sooo much stuff that we don't need or use so we figured moving into a smaller space will force us to clean up and get organized!!!

Did I mention the new space has a fantastic view of downtown Indy??
Pictures to come soon. :o)

What's Next??


Well, I am happy to say that the Hoosier Holiday Boutique was a great success. Thank you to Amber of Blue Scarab and Megan of Spice of Life Designs for coordinating and putting this event together for everyone.

I got to meet a lot of great artists at this event and even made a few trades along the way... which included trading up for a cool stuffed cat-ipillar and some illustrations by the Cordial Kitten.

So what's next on the agenda besides filling the wholesale orders that keep piling in for the holiday? The Bloomington Handmade Market!!! The market is November 21st in the Waldron Auditorium. Be sure to come by and get that special holiday gift before it's too late!!

Hope to see you there!
