New Digs at COTTAGE Vintage Home!

Well yesterday we started moving

Mack & Momma

and the

Art Circus Studio

to our new home at Billie's -

COTTAGE Vintage Home!

Still lot's to do but I am already feeling it!

Warm, welcoming, calming, loving.....Home!

Billie's hubby and son were so helpful in moving

in my big black cabinet

and setting up this awesome

rusty shelving unit to hold my supplies.

They also turned the white cubbies sideways

to display retail supplies.

My hubby helped we find this shop bench with drawer. Yay!

For hammering and soldering.

Temporary signage.

 My Circus Mascot!

 Fascinator Hat will be an up-coming class.

 Amore' Necklace.

Stay tuned for more details.
