Suddenly, Seemore!


Mr. Seemore Easton has been out on the town yet again! Sorry for the lag-time between posts lately, but things have been super (SUPER). Life is full; we've got the new show at the gallery, Mercantile Home is going through a huge growth spurt (the website IS coming, but I'll first be sharing our 20 Holiday Cards designs with everyone in the next day or so - that'll most likely be my next post), and Saturday is the opening of the Mercantile Home Shop-within-a-Shop - we've turned the office space into a mini-boutique! Not bad for a cottage industry (we're working our butts off, let me tell you, but having so much fun!) Life is good, and good is anything at all better than corporate! :)

Can't wait for the election to be here. Just four more days. On top of everything else, we've been hosting Obama volunteers in need of housing the past week or so, and the frequency (and number of quests) is increasing as we head to the final stretch! God, I love living in a swing state!

By the way, that's Melissa and her hubby Brian in the bottom pic - they're new friends we met through the market and gallery AND I'm the recent beneficiary of a fabulous Bernina sewing machine that was sitting collecting dust at Melissa's. Easton (and its people) just keeps on giving to us, and we keep giving back.

Mercantile Home Website - COMING SOON!


So, Mercantile Home, our line of artfully handmade home goods (notecards, blankets and linens, aprons, pillow cases, etc.) has been growing exponentially and we're in the process of getting a website up and running where you'll not only be able to see all the wonderful goodness we've been making but also have the chance to take some home for yourself, too! :) Stay tuned...

I Love Easton

Well, "the little apple" show is up and Fall is in the air (it's downright chilly outside)! Here's our $20.00 gallery shirt for the exhibit highlighting our Easton pride while making a nod towards the "BIG APPLE". More posts to come. I'm going to get caught up eventually, but life has been busy and FULL FULL FULL.

The Adventures of Seemore Easton

A few weeks ago, Megan from the Easton Farmer's Market became the proud parent of one of our gallery pets, the orange Mr. Raccoon you see below. Well, Mr. Raccoon, now playfully known as Seemore Easton, has been seen all over town. Here are some pics of his recent escapades, which are shared with the entire community in the Farmer's Market email blasts! It's great PR for KJJFA and Easton! We love it!
