This week is a crazy one for me. I have one day left to set up the house for the show, one day to clean, one day to do signs, one day to work... then it's showtime! I've had to close some rooms as I just ran out of time to do it all. Making deadlines for yourself seems to be the ticket to sanity. :)
On A Whim's amazing rustic crafting hutch. You should see the before. Yikes!
So for this week, the highlights will be a little different. It'll be a week of SNS highlights! Each day I'll post a few SNS #6 highlights for you to enjoy, along with updates on what I'm doing to the house and other news. Just know, I wasn't able to comment on every post I visited... it started off good but.. yeah. Time.
The cutest idea ever for a simple bottle of jar hand santizer from Little Lizard King
Some exciting stuff coming for SNS weekends as well! I have two offers so far for giveaway sponsors! More on that to come as details unfold.
Vintage Junky's AMAZING new studio with bits and bites of all things vintage. MUST see! I LOVE this cabinet.
Be sure to check in daily to see if one of these highlights is all about you!
Thanks again all for the great weekend! See you next weekend for
Watch for more details to follow.
Show prep: Today is the last day I have to stage the rooms. They'll be staged in such a way that will look like someone just left the room in the middle of doing something. (which to me is more real than perfectly aligned staging) My son's playroom will have nintendo out, a controller trailing into his daybed complete with a blanket strewn over the side with a big bowl of popcorn. Fun or what! :)
Look at the magazines. Rarely do they have perfect sterile rooms. I love the shots with someone cutting a lemon or something on the countertop, or rumpled blankets and an open book on a side table. I'm self teaching myself a whole lot this week!
Oh oh! On Saturday, I set up the Christmas tree and fireplace mantel. I changed out everything to tone on tones for FREE. Can't wait to show you how I did it. My son does NOT like the colourless look, so he'll get his own tree in his own room to do with whatever he pleases. I felt that was a fair tradeoff. :) Ok, small update, today he said the tree was pretty but I think it was the lights he was referring to. Who doesn't love a lit tree?!?
Ok, off to stage some more. See you with tomorrow's updates!
