Pink Saturday...Unofficially

Emily Blunt in Dior HauteCoture


I figured I'd lay around like this all weekend.


Just kiddin'! My Mom, my Auntie and I are off tomorrow to
set up our new booth in a local shop. Thursday we went to put
a little paint on the walls of our new space.





Here she is, our new baby! You can see the blue tape on the floor

marking the spaces off. All the "junk" on the floor is everything 3
ladies
might possibly need in order to spend 45 minutes painting walls.

We
don't travel lightly.

Mocha's from down the street were also required

to get the job done. I had hot chocolate as I had already had my coffee
quota for the week. It's not a diet choice, I'm just not a big coffee drinker.





We were delighted to see this welcome sign when we arrived!

All That Jazz!

That's us!

At least we think we're pretty jazzy.
Maybe we're just a bunch of big geeks who think they're jazzy.




The paint color of choice...a pretty aqua color.





Before...




After.


The color doesn't show much in the picture, but we are very happy
with the choice and it will dry darker.

So, since we're moving in this weekend I may be too busy
to get around to visit until later in the weekend, which is why
I didn't sign on for Pink Saturday this week.

However, be sure you all have a LOVELEIGH weekend and Happy Pink
to each and every one of you!


More to follow next week!

How exciting to get your booth up and running. I love that blue you chose... that is the color of my kitchen and dining room. My fave color! Although I must admit I find myself craving yellow right now. Must be a spring thing.
Blessings!

GOOD LUCK with your new venture. With 3 people that should make it fun & not all the work is on one person. Also, all the rent is split which is another good thing. LOVE the color you chose. Have a great week. Charlene
