Winter...already?
Didn't we just get the yard the way we like it? Didn't we just plan a back yard bbq and fire? Holy guacamole...its fall. It's not even fall, as here in MN we just had a snowstorm last week that broke records. I think we had almost 10" of accumulation at our house. So just like that, its winter. I really do hate winter. Everything about it. Well, not everything....I like sitting in front of the fireplace with wool socks on my feet while I am wrapped in a blanket. Thats a good part of winter. And Christmas lights. I love Christmas lights.
I've been so innundated with custom orders that I almost had to turn someone away yesterday and refer them to someone else. But, I didn't. And now that pieces are being picked up and others are moving, the garage is getting to look a bit more normal. As in, we MAY be able to park in there this winter. (Another reason why I hate winter....giving up the garage for almost 6 months is not fun for me.)
As the holidays are approaching, check to see if you have a piece of furniture that needs some love. Some TLC. Some paint! Right now I am 1 week out with custom orders, so get in line when you can! Being this busy is a good thing <3
