painting panels

Oh where did August go?!! Somehow, I am feeling a bit behind on my production for the craft fairs this year. And with one of the bigger shows soon approaching in October (One of a Kind Vancouver), I am having to ramp up production big time. For the last few evenings this week, I have been busy painting small wooden panels for my woodburnings... 100 small ones painted so far... 150 more to go. And then it will be burn, burn, burn time. I am not in a state of panic just yet... but perhaps check back in a week or so and it will be a different story!

I'm rather enjoying all the work I've had lately. There's something about the renewed spirit and drive of having a lot on your plate. Hm. Just as long as we finish it all! So back to work I suppose.

Wow! You have quite a lot of burning ahead of you! Great news about the upcoming fair! They're all done in my area. :( But Etsy seems to be picking up a bit. 4 sales in the last 4 days! I think I had 4 sales for the whole of July and August! Oh well, I'm looking forward to a little holiday rush, especially now that my last undergrad semester started.

No need to panic! Just set a goal for each night and be sure you complete it or do more than your goal. You will be fine!

wow that's impressive!!! Soooo cute! It will all be worth it i'm sure! do you make your panels yourself? I wish I knew a carpenter it's so expensive to purchase similar panels!
