Customer Appreciation

A couple of weeks ago I sold a rug to a repeat customer, always a nice thing. I shipped the rug to her via Purolator, a first for me, and it worked out perfectly. I am pleased with their service.

This morning she sent me a customer appreciation photo via convo, and was kind enough to email me a copy of it tonight.

My rug, now her rug, at home in her kitchen! It fits perfectly!

Thank you Angelique!

The Eaton Girls...

On Saturday we drove to my sisters camp and spent the afternoon and evening with my family. It's not often that we are all able to be together. It was nice to have a photo taken with the five of us, the four sisters with our mom. My mom and her girls. (sorry Ernie.. but you are not a girl... you're the boy. the brother, the son, we will have some photos taken of us all together, at Trisha's wedding this coming winter!)

This morning my sister and her husband came from the city to pick blueberries. We were gone for hours and picked a lot of them. I picked 5 baskets full, my personal best for this summer. They are however getting a little soft and squishy, maybe they have had a touch of frost.

When we got home I was very pleased to find my treasury on the front page of Etsy. Always a thrill! I hope all the talented artisans involved get many many hearts and sales from this exposure!

Shades of Autumn...

Yesterday, after what feels like forever, I wove a rug. It is a gorgeous autumn coloured recycled t-shirt rug. I love it, and I am very happy to be weaving again.

I love freshwater pearls and I love my friend Gillian's gorgeous beads! The combination of the two with copper added, is spectacular!

Tim's Goblet and My Earrings!

Last week I splurged on two of Tim Alexanders goblets. I had a mission when I was looking for them, I am using them to stage my jewelry to photograph it. This one has many different shades and hues on it, so it will work with many different colours. I am very pleased with my purchases!
