Only 2 more weeks...

...until I have to go back to the real world of teaching middle school! ahhh! Summer has literally flown by, being so busy doing custom orders, I feel like I haven't even stopped to enjoy the fact that I've been able to do furniture full time all summer. Until I start to see those "back to school" commercials on tv and it brings me back to reality; soon I'll be back to the old routine of teaching 7th and 8th grade and running Furniture Alchemy. sigh.

This little piece caught a lot of attention this week, and rightfully so(in my humble opinion), it's super cute! It was featured on "Furniture Flippin'" and "Cutting Edge Stencils"

Thanks to all of that, I'm nearing 300 "likes" on my facebook page!  Make sure to stop by and say hi!

 In order to keep it short and sweet, here are a few highlights from the past week:

1. One of my military trunks was purchased by a tv/film producer for FX and Comedy Central so that was super exciting!
2. I'm waging war against my shipping provider. I will win all battles, and the war.
3. I arrived home yesterday to find two strangers in my apartment.  Property manager neglected to mention to me that they would be coming by for air conditioner maintenance; and I nearly shanked the poor fellows. Then called and yelled at the property manager. I don't think it will happen again.
4. I'm trying really hard to come up with a #4....only having 3 items on my list makes it seem pretty dull; but i'm at a loss, so I guess we'll just stick with 3 highlights.

 Back to painting! Happy Tuesday everyone!
