Happy Birthday

Good morning all,
Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas celebrating with friend and family always remembering the true meaning of the day. Happy Birthday Jesus!

Desk Mate

Good morning all,
I saw something like this on the internet a long time ago and when I started using chalkboard paint I decided to give it a try. I've got all sorts of tubes and cores around from toilet paper tubes to tape cores and upholstery tubes.  I painted a sturdy piece of cardboard with the chalkboard paint and glue it to a carpet sample. I painted the tubes and glued them to the sample. I like it and it will be a good place to store desk top items in my new store. Taking next Sunday off as it is Christmas. Wishing everyone a Blessed holiday!

No Tree

Good morning all,
I decided this year not to put up a Christmas tree. I have to do it by myself now that the kids are grown and for me that takes all the fun out of it. We used to have eggnog, cookies and listen to Christmas, while talking about the origin of each gem placed on the tree. I wasn't thinking it would be an energy saver! Even though we did move to LED lights a few years back, I was surprised at how much energy those little lights take. So here is my challenge, take note of your electric bill in January and make your New Year's resolution to save some energy somewhere this 2012. Happy, happy week!

More Zippers!

Good morning all,
Not only do I have a big bag of broken zippers, I'll soon have a boat load of new ones. I am currently in the process of purchasing Arnst Zipper Repair in Sheboygan. The sisters and I are very excited about the transition and all should be legal by the end of January. Greenpurse will have a spot in the store front and be a great addition to the zipper business. Until that time I'll keep on doing what I do. My last show is next Saturday at Emil Mazy Hall from 10-2. Stop by and say hello! Happy, happy week!
