Time Flies!

It's close to a month now that little Running Horse Gallery has been open, and what an interesting month it has been! I now totally understand how much work a shop is, big or small. The gathering, the arranging, the pricing and, gasp, the DUSTING! Have met some delightful people who stopped in, My beading area is so wonderful to work in, it's quite, sunny and relaxing. Who would ever guess I get more done by being out here every day! I only have so much time out here and in the house and that time is put to good use. So goodby to 2011 and a big hello to 2012! Let's all be happy, bold, and creative!

Busy day.

I wore one of my beaded collars to a Christmas party Saturday night, one of the people there wanted to see more, they did, and they bought one of my pendants as a present. This afternoon three women stopped in. They were from Huson and went to Hamilton Christmas shopping, stopped here on the way home. Now that's a long drive to go shopping! Hamilton stores must have appreciated them, they looked like serious shoppers.

Friends

Yesterday I was so happy to have LuLu (also known as Lisa Lane Burke) stop in to visit. Haven't seen her in ages. She came bearing gifts! Dried apples, from her own trees and dried by herself. Heavenly home made huckleberry jam. Holiday napkins and delish chocolate mints. What a great time I had chatting with her. We have a neighbor, Paul, who feeds my horses carrots every afternoon, believe me the horses LOVE Paul!, well, he stopped in to see what I was up to here. He looked around and said "I proclaim this good!", thank you Paul! He left saying he'll bring his wife next time. So nice to have the sun out, makes everything happy.

Busy day.

Last Sunday was a busy day here at little Running Horse Gallery. I not normally open on Sundays but got a call from a friend, Jackie, who wondered if she and three friends could stop in. But of course! That was fun, this is a small place and it was full with people and happy talking. I had wanted to take pictures of customers here but forgot! Jackie even bought my little Christmas tree! Nice meeting everyone and introducing them to my place.
