Busy Busy Busy

No I have not dropped off the planet…again.

I was away visiting family and since returning home I have been inundated with prenatal appointments for baby #2.

On top of that I been posting like mad to my Etsy shop uploaded a whole bunch of fun and colorful jewelry.

Crazy Month

Miss me?

It’s been a crazy month and it’s only going to get crazier as we head into early September.

I’ve been busy at the local Farmer’s market selling (primarily) my jewelry and smaller artwork, this Thursday will be my 3rd week and then I am taking the next week off as we head to the Rockies

camping for our 9th Anniversary.

Once I get back I have Prenatal appointments, another week at the Market and then Munchkin and I fly to New Brunswick to visit family leaving hubby home to hold down the Fort (no pun intended, seeing how we live in Fort Saskatchewan, AB).

He’s offered to take over my table (sweet brave soul he is xox)  at the Last Market for the Season on Sept 5th so treat him nice and buy lots 😉

While all the chaos has been happening I’ve also been busy rearranging my studio and basement in general,

working on a few new paintings which I hope to complete when I get back in September

and I also signed up for a big Christmas Marketplace Sale happening on November 30th hosted by the local Chamber of Commerce.

So I’ll also be busy prepping handmade jewelry and art for gifts and stocking stuffers for that event.

But in the mean time I hope to have a few weeks of relaxing with family.

As a side note, I have cut a few prices on earrings and what not in my Etsy store so there’s no better time to shop 🙂

Electric Guitar Commission Complete

Signed, sealed and delivered to it’s new home in Moncton, New Brunswick.

This was an awesome piece to work on.

The couple who commissioned it, also own an acoustic guitar I did several years ago

Colour of Music (sold)
Colour of Music (sold)

and were looking for something in a similar abstracted, splash style to compliment it for their music/stereo room.

So asides from those parameters I was given free reign on the project which is always nice 🙂

I knew the “she” out of the couple liked teal so I included that in my color choices and went for a 80’s galaxy rock type of feel.

Here’s how it turned out.

These mail really easily and come in two pieces if anyone else is interested in commissioning one I have them on sale until the end of August.

Check em out here.

They make awesome statement wall pieces, great for music/art lovers.

Cheers,

Amanda

 

 

Farmer’s Market

Contacted the Chamber of Commerce Friday and have made arrangements to have a table at the local Fort Saskatchewan’s Farmer’s Market for the month of August!

I will be showcasing and selling some of my smaller art pieces and prints as well as my jewelry.

Should be fun and I’m hoping for a good reception.

In the mean time I will be making and prepping a good supply of merchandise to have on hand.

Waiting for a few new supplies to come in and then we are good to go!

Some of the cool things I’ll be carrying (assuming I get them all done in time) will be painted wooden bracelets, plethora of earrings, pocket watch pendants, hand painted pendants, bookmarks, block prints, mini abstracts, watercolors and a chunk more stuff.

Plus every week there is a gift basket draw that I will be contributing discount vouchers to, to go towards a commission piece.

So it should be a good time.

You can come out buy some jewelry, art and fresh veggies 🙂 how can you go wrong!

Cheers,

Amanda
