THANK YOU TO OUR READERS!

We hope we continue to give you some posts that help you along your way. A lot of time and effort goes into having and running a blog. Our hope is that when you come here, you’ll get lots of ideas and inspiration to create along with encouragement and inspiration to live out your dream.

Also, let me apologize for our lack of posting here on the OTW blog. I must say, this summer has been a busy one. Jaime has also been on vacation, so I have been flying solo. Let me tell you, if you have a business partner, express your gratitude to them now. Working alone… not as much fun!

Thanks so much for waiting for these pictured. We had such a blast at this years Arlington in April. The sun was out and the weather was better than anyone could have asked for. This years festival was the largest yet!

We enjoyed meeting so many new people, and of course loved catching up with our existing customers. Thank you to all of our friends and family who came by to support us. I am sure you didn’t mind having to shop, play and eat the good food as well!

It’s that time of year, Arlington in April is fast approaching. Jaime and I had such a wonderful time last year at this show. Lynn and Amanda, owners of Classic Trends , asked us to join them at their store for the event. It was gorgeous and so many people showed up to shop all of the booths and eat the great festival food. If you haven’t been to Classic Trends, located in the historic depot square in downtown Arlington, you need to head on over. They have great items that you can’t find elsewhere. They truly believe in supporting and featuring the work of local artists in addition to having the most current trends in home decor. If you have a love for flower arrangements, then this store is a MUST. With an in house floral designer, you will definitely be blown away.

So if your close by, you’ll definitely want to be sure you put Arlington in April down on your calendar. Jaime and I have been working away in the studio and we will be debuting a new series of our Heirloom Frames. We also have created brand new frames and quote plaques, with new color combinations and better than you could imagine. We can’t wait to show you all, we’re just bursting at the seams!
