Jeanne d' Arc Living ~ Christmas issue

As a collector of this wonderful magazine, this is the one we've been waiting for. In English! The November issue is full of Christmas. Full of wonder. Full of that wonderful Nordic style of decorating. Here are a few pictures to entice you.
Can you stand it ...







OMG

see you soon ~ L

work in progress

I don't even want to say the word...Christmas...oh, there it is, it's out there.
The most bizarre thing about retail is the way we work so far ahead of the actual Holiday. I order product in January...it arrives in June....and I start to create before Halloween....CRAZY!
Oh. But it is FUN!!
Here is a sneak peak ... not much... just a peak...









Much more fun to be had.
My Premiere is Nov. 7 - 8 and I have a ton of work to do. If you see the lights on at the Barn past midnight you'll know it's just me...if only I had a few elves.

Time is on my mind.
So much to do for the Holiday preparation.
My store...being in a state of disarray...can not be photographed!
What better to focus on when time is on ones mind...Clocks! I happen to have lots of them.


... and they are fun to photograph.

just a few clocks.... from the guest bath, living room and kitchen. I grabbed a few photos at 6:30 am before I left for the hospital.... so I skipped the clocks upstairs.... the sleeping gang would not have approved pictures taken in their lairs...
