And so it begins....

STUDIO SPRINGCLEAN #1

Im starting from the outside and working my way in!

As you saw from this post, I really couldnt get in the doors without cleaning up the mess winter had left me...

So a good sweep, tighten the gatelock latch, replace the door locks, and the addition of some plants...

Its not just about the studio and deck, as this little garden area is for everyone to see, so I have had to up the anti, and feed the grass, mulch the garden, and add more interest with junk, of course!

As you can see, the grass is needing repairs.

This ladder has finally collapsed, so lucky I have a few spare!

 I love the birdcages, they help the climbers to hang on,and I think they look cute too!

It seems the kookaburras have been having a feast on my fish, there are none to be seen, so I need to buy more, and place the screen on top!

I'll be back with more soon,come see what's inside the studio!

*Five weeks to go, till the big Spring sale...*

It's a new day...

My cleaning frenzy was slammed to a holt a few days ago when I hurt my neck...don't worry ,this is a regular injury, and nobody's fault but my own. I'm impatient when it comes to moving things, and need to move it then and there, no time to loose!

Thankfully it is mending and I'm able to do light duties!

New additions

I have so much to do this week, a sore neck wasn't worked into the equation, oh well, the usual last minute rush is on the cards, in preparation for another sale this Saturday!

New additions

Toby will be happy to see this pile move down to the studio, he likes to be able to see us when he is outside, looking in!

Working Bee Bonanza!

It was like no other....action-packed, and we were in for a funfilled day!

It was a great day, I was overwhelmed with so many wanting to help! Some friends and family came,20 of them, including 6 kids who all pitched in! We cut trees, put up bamboo fencing, weeded, ate, hung 'decorations',ate, fixed a roof, paved a path....the list was long, but just about everything was achieved! What can I say, it took many years to get this far behind,but now Im up to speed! Im speechless, I have such a great support team out there, thankyou.

Of course ,I forgot to take photos,well I was busy working, so you'll just have to visualize...

They planted some colour down near my studio, so pretty. I couldnt help add my new creations to the garden. How cute are these!! Birdhouses galore!! I'll be adding them to my studio shortly.

With 5 weeks to go till my big sale, no time to rest, I have painting, pricing, displaying, printing leaflets and cards, and creating to do!

Hopefully my website will be operating properly by then too.

Keep watching.....
