I was supposed to be at an art fair today, but my dad was in the hospital this past week, and I just didn't think I could get it together and be prepared to set up Friday, much less be gone the whole weekend. Turns out he has pneumonia, so that's better than any of the alternatives, but I still was so stressed from the unknown if it all.....
So, I've been taking it a little easy the last few days--trying to get my house ready for Easter but my brain is always working on these ideas.... like the FAMILY shown above.... These are just leaning against the back of the shelving but I did find a moulding to use as a base for my letter frames. The samples I had made fit right in the pre-cut groove, but when I made new letter frames with the new foam core, they didn't fit, because the new foam core is one sixteenth of an inch narrower! Now I have to solve that problem---either add double stick tape or foam to keep them in place, or this morning, I thought of putting small rods in the foam, and drilling small holes in the groove of the wood to set them in. This may be getting to be too much work though! I want these to be more affordable and don't want to take tons of time to get them ready! I really would like them to be easy so that when I get the orders, I am excited and not dreading the steps it will take to get them ready.....
