Wow...

Wow...what a beautiful Spring morning here in MN! I am off to the studio to try to get ahead of inventory before my show schedule starts in about 5 weeks! Have a wonderful Sunday everyone!

BE happy...

Happy Easter!

I hope everyone had a blessed Easter with their families, I know we did, and it was such a beautiful day out on top of it! We are headed out on yet another College visit today...but needless to say, I will be working away in the car on the 4 hour drive! More nests I think, just in time for SPRING! Have a great week everyone!

BE happy...

Back in the studio...

So after a 3-day weekend in Madison I am back at it in the studio! What a beautiful weekend to spend in Madison! We had a great show, got to touch base with old friends and customers, and were lucky enough to make new of both! Dropped off new product on State Street to Driftless Studio....thanks Anne. Now it's back to the task of finishing up art fair applications for the up coming season, hats off to Zapplicaion for making the process a million times easier and faster, and working to get enough product ready for the start of my busy season! Have a wonderful week!

I'm still here....

So once again it looks as though I have been neglecting my blog! Life just always seems to sneak in and eat up your time while you're not looking! The Bead Bazaar is this weekend in Hopkins at the Eisenhower Community Center on Saturday and Sunday from 10 - 5. Stop by if you are in MN for a great mix of bead related items! Today I am finishing up a few pieces for the show, and putting together the last of my receipts for our taxes as I am driving back home tomorrow to get them done! Whew, one more thing to cross off my list! Spring Break starts tomorrow for us, and after the show this weekend we are headed out to visit a couple of colleges with Kendal...the quest has begun!

Later,
Kristi

A long day!

Working on finishing up some new pieces today, although I should probably be sticking to something familiar today since I have NO concentration! Our RGH team is playing at the Minnesota State High School Hockey Tournament in the semi-final game tonight at the Excel @ 8pm and I am just trying to keep busy!

What a week!

What a week this is going to be! Our daughter and her high school hockey team have made it to STATE! They have been ranked #1 in the State most of the season, and won the section final game last Friday. The banquet is on Wednesday, and we have games starting on Thursday, then all weekend, so it will be a tough week to get any work done, but I am doing my best to get stocked up for my upcoming shows! I have a big knot of nerves in my stomach for the upcoming games, but hopefully they will do great, we are so proud of the team! Go Raiders!

One headache down!

My Spinal Tap and the following Spinal Headache are over, after having to be flat on my back for 5 days to get rid of THAT headache. Unfortunately the original headache remains. I have still been working away, just on different things, like wirewrapping that doesn't require constant pounding. Oh, and cleaning silver, my least favorite job!
