Swirly Studio Update

It seems like every time we look at the calendar we are scrambling to put together another new holiday collection. With the middle of March quickly upon us, which means Easter is just a month away, (April 12th) we thought we would do a post to update everyone on what's happening here at the studio and answer some of the email questions that have been coming in over the weeks that we haven't had a chance to reply to yet. (sorry!)

Homepage Update?
Hopefully we will have the new homepage up before spring.

Are you going to have a 2009 Spring collection?
Yes! We are in full production right now and what we can tell you is that this years will be a very limited collection due to my better half is 8 1/2 months pregnant and her time in the studio right now is limited.

Our tentative launch date will be the week of March 23rd. If you are on our mailing list you will be notified when the collection is launched.

Will you have more how to projects?
We try to work on these how to projects simultaneously with the production of ornaments collection. If we do, it should be a few days after the launch of the collection or a week.

Will you have any St. Patrick's ornaments?
Lately we have been getting a lot of requests for other holiday ornaments. Unfortunately we don't have a St. Patrick's one this year. We did have something last year because Easter fell so close to the holiday. Here is what it looked like before we added glitter and varnished to the ornament.

Which craft shows are you attending in 2009?
The application registration for the crafts shows are starting to come in. We are still trying to figure out what we are going to do. We we think we will be doing some crafts shows this year. How many... we still don't know. We will post as soon as we get accepted to the shows we decide to apply to.

Other than that, our days have been spent sanding, painting and varnishing ornaments...oh and trying to prepare for our new little addition! Life is busy that's for sure.

Happy Spring!
