Hooray to Staples! I had heard of an “Engineer’s Print” on some of the crafty blogs. It is a large scale print you can have made at Staples for cheap. My print cost $7 and was done on the spot. I was so thrilled with it. I’m going to use it to jazz up my booth at this year’s RISD Holiday Sale. The sale is Saturday December 8th, from 10 – 5 pm. It is held at the Rhode Island Convention Center. Tonight you can find me at Studio Hop, doing a paper-cutting demo. They are having a Holiday Stroll all along Hope Street in Providence. I will be there from 5 to 8 (or 9). I had better get my act together. I spent a lovely afternoon at my Mom’s yesterday for her Danish Christmas lunch. Mmm, I’m still thinking of all the good things we ate, yum! Tak for sist Mom! Oh and here’s a picture from Santa’s mail room! I was addressing my X-mas cards and got 1/2 of them in the mail.

That is wonderful (the enlargement)! It will really add pizazz to your already pretty booth! I too wrote a bunch of cards. Have to buy stamps and finish the rest. Have a great time at the demo tonight! ~Do

Thank you Do. The stroll was a good one. I came later than last year and didn’t realize that they close down part of Hope Street. As I walked to Studio Hop, I got to take in some of the sights, including a guy blowing glass on the street and another forging metal. I got to chat with some interesting people and possibly got 3 students for my RISD Valentine workshop! Yay!

Thank you Michelle! From your kind words to the ears of those holiday shoppers! I did write an email to Lois the director of Saturday’s sale and stated the plain truth, that I hate the music they play. We shall see if there is any change or shutter it’s worse than usual. Looking forward to hearing the details of your party! -i
