Fresh start for the New Year!

I would say today was a good day .... 

lots of things accomplished. 

Today was a good day for another BIG reason ... we put away all the holiday stuff at the brick and mortar ...fresh start for the new year! 

I still have some office work to complete for the end of the year and the beginning of the new. 

We have a system that helps us with orders and filing that requires tabs and labels so I have to print little titles ... I do it the old fashion way with my pen (no computer).

In the classroom/studio, I demonstrated pushing a color for one student. He was using green with no value shifts, no variety ... just green ...  everything was flat. I think the lesson helped him see the possibilities. 

With another student, I started a basic collage  lesson/project. She is super excited to be taking classes with me. I am really in the mood to do some collage work of my own so look for that in the near future. During my own time today,  I was able to finish two greeting cards to sell.

I worked in my sewing room tonight to create a round table cloth we need for the showroom table. I selected a blue and silver fabric with snowflakes, suns and stars. It is very wintery. I will try to posts a few snaps of it tomorrow.

I feel good about all I accomplished today. Sometimes, feeling good is what it is all about!!!
