Weekend Wind-Down #136

CRFTS 0115

Whoa! So...it's been a while since I've posted on here, and even longer since the last time we had a "WEEKEND WIND-DOWN". I was going to post this Monday night, but 2am on a Wednesday is a good a time as any, considering. I have a backlog of images that have yet to be downloaded from the past couple of months, and I'm feeling the pressure to finally get them out of my camera, especially since things are only going to get busier here on out. We've been super busy crafting, making things, packing things, sending things, etc...between craft shows, re-stocking on-line stores and brick-and-mortar stores, and filling out folks' holiday orders, it's been crazy here. Missy's been good about posting and I've been more than happy to take a much needed break. Right now, we're in the midst of getting stuff together for the big CHATTY CRAFTY craft show in Chattanooga, Tennessee this weekend:

We did take a break last Friday night to attend the STUDENT EXIT SHOW at the LAMAR DODD SCHOOL OF ART at the University of Georgia here in Athens. Needless to say, it was inspiring to see works by bright young talent and it gave us a creative boost:
