deMeng Special Giveaway & Nook Happenings











Diablo Or No Diablo


deMeng version of Deal or No Deal






Michael and I have a little surprise for those attendees of Michael's Workshops at The Artists' Nook's new Location!!!

As a way of celebration my new space we thought we'd have a little fun. ...

A chance to win a piece of Michael's art work.

Not just any piece but........a custom made piece for the lucky winner.

DETAILS:
For each deMeng workshops day that a student takes at The Artists' Nook July 17-20th, they will receive a little matchbox...filled with something.

The idea is to get the one with a little devil.

If you get the devil Michael will make a little shrine for you (roughly 4"x6"ish) that will incorporate a personal item that you would like included.

The Matchbox Opening Ceremony will be a Wine & Cheese Party after Critque on Saturday.

Saturday's workshop ends at 5 pm so the Critque should end about midnight.... Just kidding!

More like 5:30 pm for the unveiling of the festivities!

Just so you know, the 2-day Found Object Alchemy workshop counts as 2 matchboxes earned!

There are a few spots left in his workshops. Don't Miss Out! Early Discount Pricing Ends June 27th,

How's the Unpacking Coming?

Great!





Little by Little, I have been unpacking.....

I am trying really hard not to fall into the same set up as before!

For the last 8 years (yes, really I have been in biz for 8 years)

The look has been more retail .......

So with this home, comfortable, country setting, I am re-thinking my layout.

We had our gallery section open last weekend for our Featured Artist Jayne Bramley.


What a great turnout....If you miss the art opening, be sure and come by for her amazing clay sculptures!

Plus, it was Bev's Fine Art & Antique Boutique weekend.

A steady stream of art enthusiasts!

Starting Friday June 20th, our store and gallery will be open from 10 am - 5 pm and every second Friday of the month til 8pm
