I'm sure our home is not the only one with an air of anticipation as the Christmas countdown creeps closer to 'C' day.
I honestly can't believe Christmas is upon us and the year almost over but take a tour through blogland and you'll hear similar stories everywhere.
This time last year I was flat on my back recovering from my first surgery and the prospect of what was to come was only an inkling. I'm so glad to have that terrible period in my life behind me and am looking forward to a very special Christmas and ringing in the New Year with great vigour..... and a wee bit of bubbly too!!
It has been a very busy pre-Christmas period here at Woodberry Designs and I promised to show you one of the reasons I haven't had time to update my blog...
Stage 1 of the new studio is completed - it's like an early Christmas gift.
I'll show you more photos next time when I have it completely unpacked and set up. What you can see there is my workspace that looks out onto our pool. The perfect spot to keep an eye on the kids during the holidays while I work. That darkened area in the background is stage 2 waiting to be fitted out. That my friends is the new classroom. It will be ready in time for classes in February 2010.
As well as setting up the studio I've also been busy preparing stock for the Christmas markets, which were a hoot. With all that going on, don't for a minute think that I have forgotten Woodberry Designs. I'm always working on that part of my business and I hope to get a few pattern projects that are very close to finished, completed and up on the website during the holidays.
After Christmas I will also have more finished items to add to my For Sale page, plus stock to sell on the Beach Boutique. There's also a new book in the pipework....... sooooo plenty of new things to look forward to.
But for now, I'll wish you all a very safe and happy holiday season.
Hugs ~ Kerryanne
