Rockbrook this Saturday, then Open Studio

This Saturday I'll be at Rockbrook Village in Omaha from 10-5 for their outdoor show! Hoping for lovely weather. Bringing along all the studio pretties for lots of shopping selection.

Next weekend is Mother's Day (and Todd's and my anniversary!). I'll have the studio open for great shopping and order pick-up...

Thurs May 9 from 5-8pm
Friday May 10 from 11-3 and 5-8 pm
and Saturday (anniversary day!) from 9-1, so that I can celebrate with hubby!

Postcard and e-mail invites go out this weekend with updated summer studio schedule...If you need help finding the studio, email me at browndogstudio@windstream.net

find me this Spring...

Yay! This Saturday is an extra-special show for Brown Dog Studio...I got an invite from my friend at Willow House (formerly Nelly's Nest, now in her NEW location) to join her for her Spring Open House. I LOVE doing a show with Janelle...did you know that oodles of my displays come from trips to her shop!?

Willow House is in Sutter Place Mall, 48th and Hwy 2. The open house runs from 10-5. 

I'm bringing glass charms, re-purposed vintage bits, my new wrap bracelets (and more!) and will be taking custom orders during those hours...

This show will be the final "in-person" chance to shop the studio in Lincoln before Mother's Day Open House (May 9-11)...you may shop on-line via the website or e-mail, but I won't be setting up in town or opening up the studio for shopping because I'll be packed up for out-of-town shows (have you seen my schedule!). 

After much thought, I have added one final option...I am going to open up a STUDIO ORDER DATE Monday April 22 (hours TBD). This will ONLY be to come have time with me to place orders. There won't be any shopping available, and these orders will make the Mother's Day cut-off date. Ta-dah!

Can't wait to see you at one of my up-coming shows!

On the road again...sing with me!

It's that time of year again...packing up the studio to begin the round of spring shows. I've really packed in some exciting venues. An eclectic mix of craft, antique and barn shows!

 

It all begins with St. Mark's (84th and Pioneers) this Saturday March 9, from 9-4. I'll be there, hopefully in my same LovEly spot, with Lucy and Emily, so there should be ample help over the busy hours! Lots of wonderful shopping and always a clipboard ready for your custom orders. I'm trying out some new displays and designs.

 

 

Remember that the WEBSITE is up and running. I still have some tweaking to do, and could always be posting some fun new pieces.

 

See you at one of my upcoming shows...

New Year...what's new in the studio?

The studio re-opened for orders last week, following a little break for family-time at Christmas. 

I've been filling on-line orders and several requests that arrive via e-mail. I'm still tweaking the website, but have been slow to add new items while trying to take better photos.

AND...it's time to start updating the studio schedule. Can you believe I already have some shows in slots for fall?!

More importantly, I need to start adding the spring shows to the list...

First, a Studio Open House

Friday January 25, from 11-7

Saturday January 26, from 11-3

Depending on the Long-family's February, I hope to get in a day or 2 next month, before the spring shows begin claiming weekends and I have to keep everything packed for shows.

Can't wait to see you :)

Here we are...the time of the year that the studio is winding down after the lovely run of oodles of shows (um...over 40 this year!), loads of orders and so many new and repeat faces in the studio.

Can I truly express how honored I am that you think of me to make special gifts and your very personal jewelry? There are so many of you who I'd love to sit down with a cuppa and some chitty-chat...even though it may seem that I'm rushed during shows...know that I LOVE making your pretties and that I don't take it forgranted that you share treasured memories with me and encourage me to create...Wow!

The studio will be open for one final weekend...

Friday December 14th, 10-7

Saturday December 15th, 10-4 

 

 

I have all of the special orders finished. I sent out e-mails and made phone calls today. I have a few items from the torch that will mail out on Saturday. The studio will then close down through January 9th for some family-time and for my much-neglected other crafting...I have some really fun plans AND hope to get more inventory onto the website for ordering. AND I just found out that Christmas is at our house which gives me a really great excuse to get some organizing and cleaning done.

 

Thank you, friends...and Merry Christmas to YOU!
