Can you believe Christmas is just over two weeks away? Due to the hustle and bustle the season brings, our scheduled giveaway partner had to back out this week. Have no fear, we’re here (to fill in). In the past few weeks, we’ve been working hard on two new shop items. First, we added Love Heart.

And, shortly after Christmas, we’ll start a new year. We’re helping you prepare with a Custom Silhouette Wall Calendar. You send us pictures of you and your spouse, your kiddos, heck, even for furry friend, and we make a modern silhouette with calendar below.


You get to enjoy the calendar for a year, but when 2013 starts, cut the 8 by 10 inch silhouette design off to frame and enjoy for years to come.
The Goods: One 8 by 10 Love Heart print, customized with your color.

Last year I made a resolution to try to avoid work drama. By separating myself from all that (hard at first) I think it had done wonders if proving more separation between my work and home life (i.e. less working from home after the baby has gone to bed).
Wendy

Wendy

We have almost finished our study that has been done in a similar fashion as your study. We have some minor touch-ups to completion, expect we are going to do the same wall treatment in our dining room and currently have all the dining room furniture in the study.
