Put me to work

 This sign is DONE and in the post - heading to Charlottesville, VA. I am beyond thrilled that I'm getting orders for these signs. My sweet husband found a huge batch of wormy chestnut boards on craigslist for me so I'm set for many, many more signs. Next up, one for an unbelievably wonderful home here in Pittsburgh and then one for my sweet soon-to-be-born nephew and then one for the farm where I work. And then...? Maybe you know someone who needs a handmade sign fashioned from reclaimed wood and vintage biscuit tins? If so, send them my way. Much obliged.

Big doings around the Foxbury Farm

Just in time for Spring everything is new around here now. The biggest of the big doings is that my wonderful husband took the leap into working and living the way he (WE) wants to. Yesterday was his first official day as the Big Boss Man at Yellow Couch Studio. This means so much to us - more time together and more time as a family, flexibility with our time and our days, space and time to explore new ideas and projects. It's all so wonderful. I am so proud of him and excited to see what our future brings. I'll have a couple of full days a week to work myself which will be the first time since 2006 that I've been able to dedicate big, fat blocks of time to my pursuits. (Watch out, pursuits!) I'm starting my new work life by putting a bunch of new work up in my Etsy Shop. ONWARD.
