Baby, its cold outside

The weather has gotten suprisingly cold very quickly around here. Its rare that we get to feel the seasons change but this Halloween looks to be shaping up as a cool one. Its perfect for getting us thinking about all the fun things that are coming up...

What a great way to remember how big (Daddy and Mommy) and small (kids) everyone was this holiday. And its a fantastic tray for that yummy turkey! Speaking of turkey...

This is a fused glass plate and the picture doesn't do it justice. This was a 1st time glass-fuser and she did a wonderful job making this little guy.

We probably won't see any of these in real life this year but we can always dream, right?

These Pizza Plates make perfects trees and hats--great dessert plates, too. Isn't any plate with dessert on it great, though?

Don't forget the big guy!
Plan now for your Holiday gifts! The earlier you get started, the sooner they are finished and off your list...oh by the way, we have everything you need for everyone on your list...ideas, too!

We fainted!

We painted and then we fainted! What a fun night...

We had SO many prizes from all our friends and neighbors...Over 30 prizes valued at over $400...crazy exciting giving them all away! I want to be a gameshow host.

Our neighbors are so fantastic to come out and support us. Marcia and Don from Hattie's Book and Ned Cash Jewelers and Jessie from Artsy Studio and Gallery.

yes, more prizes...

We "Pinked Out" our studio with balloons and streamers and bright t-shirts...

and a painted ribbon on my leg, too!

Dianna and Diane didn't want their picture taken... :)
Thank you so much to everyone who came out and enjoyed the party! We had fun and have heard so many great complimants...we couldn't have done it without you! The money we raised will go to the American Cancer Society for our Relay For Life Team. Want to join us? Let us know!
Oh yeah, we raised over $500!!!! WOO-HOO!!! Y'all are the best...
We had painters until 11:30 pm...way to hang with it ladies!
Did you miss out on our "Paint 'Til You Faint" this time around? Don't worry, we're aiming for another one around January or February...we'll keep you posted.

Free Slumping!

Wednesday will now be FREE SLUMP DAY!
What is slumping you ask? Tsk, tsk...have you not tried Glass Fusing yet? First we fuse the glass together into one piece and then you can choose to have it "slumped" into a mold to make it into a plate or bowl or vase.
Normally, slumping is an extra $6 because its an extra firing...but now...
HUMP DAY IS FREE SLUMP DAY!
Tell your friends and come play...

so good



We have the best customers/friends! We had so much fun celebrating our birthday on Friday night! And everyone was so kind in offering their well-wishes for our continued success and we all enjoyed cake...We are so thankful to our friends who helped us celebrate our special day with their presence and gifts---Yes, ED Hose is once again adding to her wonderfulness in our party area! Have you not seen all ED has to offer? Visit http://www.edhose.com/.
Thanks to Linda at Art Downtown for her beautiful flowers...And who can miss Sheri's great contribution of creativeness?! Hers is the platter in the 1st picture...she takes forever but ALWAYS comes out with something great! :)

The big 0-3...


Happy 3rd Birthday to us! We are celebrating tonight at Ladies Night...there will be cake! If you are in the area, BYOB, and join us...there will be LIVE MUSIC in the park, too--not for our birthday specifically but we can pretend its all about us...
So much has changed in 3 years...all for the better of course...customers have become dear friends, my children have gained countless aunts and uncles growing up everyday in this crazy place (not to even mention that Reilly-Kate was only 3 weeks old when we started this thing) and I get to work with my mom everyday---and, overall, I'd say that we enjoy each other.
We're very blessed and thankful. Thanks for making our dreams come true...
