on a separate note...

Other than moving I wanted to update you on displays as well. This upcoming week is my window installation at the new store. We will also be putting up our Christmas trees, and starting our holiday store transformation. Last week I froze our wheat installation to give a little hint as to what is coming without making it overtly holiday before Halloween came.

I also had to install a new wall over our existing plaster walls so that now I can securely drill into them and attach display to the wall which is next to impossible on a plaster wall. Yay to building a wall for the first time! After I made the wall I bleached and re-dyed the fabric that was on there so that our new window will have a winter storm-like background. Get excited for next weekend's window pictures!

I also made a few new birds for our exterior display. I jigsawed them out of wood, sanded them, and made their wings out of leftover wooden petals from last springs display. Yay for re-using materials!
