Yes, I told you that we are teaching the Embellished Terra Cotta Pot class this Saturday, when we are actually hosting the French Flower Pot class! Thank you Jill, for letting me know! This is always a fun class! We’ll apply two layers of Fusion Mineral Paint, then the I.O.D. Decor transfer, followed by wax. For those of you who tell me you don’t have an ounce of creative genius, I assure you that you’ll master this project! So come join us!…

Hello again! Has another week already passed? Whoa, Nellie! Let’s slow this train down! You hear me!? Last Saturday, we hosted our Paint Your Own Piece class. What a lovely, fun group of women! We’ve been round and round about wearing, or not wearing masks, at the shop. We’re back to sporting masks, in an effort to make everyone feel safe…including our very own shop sisters. Tregae and Jill were looking quite beautiful, in their masks, last Saturday! Coming up this Saturday, is our Embellished Pot Class. We have four spots left and I’d love to have you join us. This…

Hello sweetness! I hope your week is sailing by, on water smooth as glass! Isn’t that how it should always be? In a perfect world and all?! Speaking of smooth water, I posted a couple of pictures on Facebook, of my new love for kayaking. Never mind we’ve had the kayaks now for three years! What’s changed is my attitude! Before, I would mentally map out a goal for how far I wanted to go. Like it was my job…a chore…a self inflicted responsibility. (I included a picture of my feet, so you’d know it was really me!) I didn’t…

Hello again! Well…guess what? The UPS man must have taken a slight detour, because he won’t be here, with our Paint delivery, til tomorrow, Thursday! Jeez! It could certainly be worse! My heart goes out to restaurant owners in Sacramento county. The county supervisors voted to shut down indoor dining again. In my former life, I spent about 20 years selling food to restaurants. There is no tougher industry…that I can think of…and those folks could use a break. The confusing thing is that you can drive 20 minutes to Roseville and eat inside a restaurant there. Go figure!

Dear Princess of Paint, Yes, we know. We have felt your pain. It’s been a long time since our Fusion Mineral Paint shelves have been (nearly). full. We’re expecting our knight in shining armor (also known as the UPS driver), to arrive with boxes and boxes of paint, on Wednesday! We’re sort of making it an unofficial national holiday! As you know, we have new business hours…. But, since we’ll be at the shop unpacking the delivery anyway and since so many customers have been waiting for their favorite colors, we’ll be open Wednesday, from 11:30-4:30!* * It would be a…

I was at the shop this afternoon, unpacking some new arrivals. Looking around, I see that we have new residents. Actually they’re the same old visitors. Dust bunnies have returned to the shop in a big way and it’s time to take action! It seems like we’re constantly cleaning! If you arrive early tomorrow, you might see us dancing with a mop or two! You’ve been warned! Sweet fair trade jewelry. More arrived…

Hello Princess! I hope you’re enjoying the week, staying happy and healthy! Tregae and I spent a good part of the day today, unpacking new Mud Pie, P.F Candles, paint suprplies and restocking shelves. Mr. Wonderful helped load the clock table for a customer’s newly remodeled home and then we brought in a vintage dining table, to take it’s place. It’s gone through Bob’s 62-point (just about!) furniture inspection and repair. The paint finish will be getting some love, but it looks sweet with one of our new buffalo checked table runners!

Hello beautiful! Well, here we are. Week two of our new shop business hours! So far, so good! Thanks for showing up, for last week’s boutique sale! Because of you, we have lots of empty hangers! Don’t despair! More fun frocks are on their way! (Like that…”fun frocks”?) First and foremost, we’re having a FURNITURE SALE, THURSDAY-SUNDAY! For example, this 6′ long, farm-style table and chairs, will be sold as a set, for $775, normally $1090! We have lots of new arrivals coming this week. Iron Orchid Designs arrives today. We placed a Fusion paint order Monday. Most colors are…
