The new studio space

Weird, I had published this post a week ago, but now blogger is advising it didn't really publish! Here is last weeks post about my new studio:

Every room I have been given the go ahead to use as my studio space, I've been kicked out of (lol - darn renovations).
But FINALY I am getting my own space, and I am only going to move from here if I get a chance to be in a bigger room!!!
Here is what my space looks like now (pardon all the poly that is protecting everything from the reno dust).
And here, dadadaDAAAAaaaaa is the new space:
It's smaller, but it's going to be all mine. Muhahahahaaaaa
Still lots to do, plugs, closet doors, trim, and the inside of the closets are not done  😁 but it's getting there!
Cheers,
Carolyn

Moving in

It's official, I got the trim touch ups, the closet doors and all the walls painted this morning! The desk and table are now in there new home (until they are replaced with the promised custom unit Mr Hunter will make me when the rest of the house is done). 

I somehow managed to post my Etsy Shop link in this post (I still don't know how to use my phone properly). 
Since I managed to get it here, I'd love your feed back on it. If you have time to check it out, please let me know your honest opinion on it, what do you love, what do you hate about it? what do you think should be different? Here is the link:

Do any of you have an Etsy store? I'd love your feedback on what works and does not work for you.
Thank you very very much!! 
Cheers,
Carolyn

Quilting gloves at the hardware store

Mr Hunter just bought me painters gloves, which are identical to the quilters gloves I got for 10 dollars more. 
I prefer the bright yellow ones with the rubber dots from the Depot for 2 bucks, but this is a great find as well. These 5 dollar gloves are 100% the same as the quilt store gloves.
Cheers,
Carolyn
