I tiptoe back here to my blog, as Ive ignored it for so long, Im embarrased.
Needless to say, the new space has kept me busy every minute, between hunting the finds, painting, building reclaimed furniture, working, creating displays, fulfilling custom orders.....I realize just how important social media is today and yet I struggle to find time for it all. Email updates, facebook, blogging, listing specials.....Im trying to do three full time jobs at the moment! i am down to two days in the shop, as my beautiful daughter hs taken on the weekends and my sweet husband has been so loving to help out the other two. Even with that I struggle to get it all done. many days I feel like Im drowning...but its a good way to die : ). I guess this is what a thriving business looks like and I am so thankful for the blessing of it.
We seem to fly through the furniture and therefore, i am constantly replacing and the space is ever changing. We had a wonderful Christmas season and are now enjoying the slightly slower pace of the new year.
During the holidays we had a free room makeover sweepstakes and our winder was drawn and New Years Eve! i will be meeting with her this weekend to get started on a plan for her new bedroom! All furnishings and design services will be provided by NEST I am thrilled to make someones dreams come true.
So, I keep pluggin along...i have a storage full of items that need just a little tweaking before joining their friends at the shop, a garage that is ever so slowly allowing my car back in, and I never seem to stop buying and creating. So fun to do what you love with your life!
Two weeks ago we were blessed with a newborn foster daughter, so that has been a rael big challenge as I try to balance it all and get everything done. We tag team alot, but its working and we have been so blessed to have her.
I have soooo many ideas for items I want to build for the reclaimed wood line, things I want to sew, etc. Theres much more shortage of time than ideas!
Hope you all had a wonderful holiday and start to the New Year...and I promise...ill get back to a weekly post ummmm....like within two weeks!
