Yesterday our new Berkeley High Intern, Jackson, stripped all the old work out of fourth & clay, mopped and waxed the floor, moved the furniture, changed the burnt out light bulbs (he's 6'7" and that really helps with the light bulb changing)and polished the pedestals. Our studio is is now a blank slate ready to be filled today and Friday with wonderful new work.
Forgive my whine for a minute .... Getting set up for the Holiday Open Studios involves so much work for everybody...starting with making the work, designing and printing the post cards, setting up the studio, mailing the post cards, reprinting the post cards, emailing our announcement, being open every weekend until Christmas. Our email list is a mess... Why it is SO UNFORGIVING...one mis-placed period, or letter and BAM we get an error message....UGH..it has NO HEART.
Now that we are almost set up the anticipation of what is going to happen sets in. Will people show up or are we going to be sitting in our beautiful studio drinking hot cider and eating all the yummy cookies by ourselves?
Help! We need to keep our girlish figures...Please come by for a visit.
