Open House Blues

Yesterday's Open House was loads of fun and loads of work.
We had a perfect day for an outdoor display ~ just a wee bit of sun
and almost no wind at all.
I have lots of pictures, so I'll start with the blue and aqua section for
today's post and continue with other posts throughout the week.

This is a dresser that my sister painted ~ just the perfect shade of aqua.














Here's my hutch outside on my screened porch sporting 
lovely aquas.

























Tomorrow I'll show you the yellow section.

    So glad the weather was cooperating for your sale Cindy! Wow everything is looking wonderful! I hope you are getting some rest today!

    Woke up to a phone call at 6am from an older woman whose toilet was flooding her trailer. DH and I ran over- he fixed the toilet while I mopped and ripped up wet carpet. Quite a way to start the day!!

I'm preparing for my debut at a store in my area this weekend. It sure is a lot of work isn't it? But I love every minute of it!
