Wow! Look what we did today!

This was the largest Lego set ever!! No, its an Ashford County Spinner spinning wheel. Knu and I spent a good part of our day treating the wood, waxing the wood, buffing the wood and then putting all these pieces together. We only had a few left over parts, just kidding! I think it looks great! I had so much pride in it, when we were done I just had to drive back to Navasota and put it in the display window (duh! why didn't I take the picture of it on display!!)

In between all of the spinning wheel fun, we dyed. Knu let me pick the color. I mixed a little bit of grey and purple and this is what we got. Its not that bright of a purple, I call it Hubba Bubba. Coming soon to a knitting store in Navasota!!

Its so beautiful!

Mom said, "If I like it, then everyone is going to like it too!" She wasn't kidding. I had this listed on eBay for less than a week, and only 16 people even viewed it before someone bought all 10 skeins of this lovely colorway. Its my favorite right now also. This is the Malabrigo Chunky in "Snow Bird". So guess what...I ordered more!

Cold Drinks for Sale.

I want one of these. Anyone know where I can get a little glass display cooler to sell drinks in? I don't even know what it would be called to search it on the internet. I just know WC Mercantile will have thirsty clients. Really I just want to sell the Starbuck's Frappuccinos.

Wheels and Bobbins and Swifts, OH MY!

Our order for spinning wheels is on its way. I can't wait to get the swift, it will make ball rolling so much easier. We will be one of very few places around Houston where people can see the wheels before they buy.

VERY COOL!

How about a logo?

I like it. What do you think?

Today vs. Yesterday

Can you tell a difference yet? We have worked so hard. The best thing yet is the window shades on the upper floor windows. We've cleaned and painted and cleaned and painted. I can't wait 'til the trade people are done with their part.
