Computer Glitches and Back to Friends

After a bit of a set back with a laptop we are back in action posting. We are also shortly en route to the airport for sunny Florida. Palm trees and new accounts await!

To round out the week and put a bit of a shine on a cloudy day here are a few more pics of friends who we appreciate and who are also fans of our wears! Looking forward to seeing you all upon our return.

Eric, owner of Morgan Realty, specializes in selling foreclosed properties.

Belle Anne is the lovely voice on the other end of the line when you dial John Hatcher of Keller Williams. A top real estate agency, we also covet their office space in a historic building off Congress.
Dan is the owner of Portland's floral favorite Harmon's & Barton's and Sawyer & Co.
Colleen is a hair stylist who can get any gal red carpet or beauty pageant ready. She learned hands on under expert colorist/stylist Jennifer Leigh, owner of O2 Salon. We love what she does for our locks.

Dan

Kicking off a week of posts today about some of the folks we call friends and neighbors. Dan is a good-looking, unfussy familiar face about town for the past two decades. He is also one of three owners of Brian Boru, a popular Irish watering hole in Portland, ME. People gather there at day's end to enjoy live music, Irish whiskey, great beers on tap, and a full menu.

Our Studio in Portland's Working Waterfront

Snapshots from our studio in Portland, Maine's working waterfront. Our door is open, but we recommend you phone ahead if possible. Would love to have you visit!

We got a little carried away with our friend's macro lens.
Pieces on order.
Popsicle sticks, good for lots of stuff.

Our neighbors and friends at Sea Bags are across the street. We enjoy the atmosphere there and love the beautiful display they made up for us in their entry/shop.
Off to grab a bite before getting back to work.
