One more day to get ready for Saturday and Sunday’s Open Studio Tour! Yesterday David and I set up one of two tents and 2 display systems on the deck. My paintings will hang in the gazebo pictured below. Michelle’s paintings will be in the tent next to the gazebo and David’s photographs will be in another tent next to the one we set up yesterday. We’ve never had 2 tents on the deck before. Usually David is in the house. We know where the work will hang but aren’t really sure where all the cards and such will go…..it’s a work in progress. Tomorrow I’ll be cooking a big meal for the family so we’ll have lots of leftovers for the weekend. AND tomorrow will the the final cleaning inside and outside the house and the beginning of arranging the show…..I sure wish I knew what I’m forgetting to do!
If you’re in the area come by and say hi!! I made 3 kinds of cookies…and as usual they are all flat, but tasty.
Entrance to the gazebo and tents.
Looking down the deck, through the tent, past the display panels. Usually we sit at the end of the deck but there may not be much room with the second tent???
Far end of the deck looking back to the tent and gazebo. I can’t wait to see all the artwork hanging and tables decorated and print racks full and waiting…..
The backyard is overflowing with deck furniture. The 4 dogs will be locked down there all day…our 2 and Michelle’s 2….and the chickens will stay in their coop
