First Monday, part three

Only one more day until we go to Weatherford for First Monday Trade Days. Events have conspired to prevent me from producing as many pieces as I would have liked, but I'll still be taking over 100 candle holders and bookends to the sale. Just over, but still...

I was able to take ten mesquite candle holders all the way through the finishing process in one day today. That is not generally thought of as a good idea, but it was just sunny and warm enough to pull it off, without being too warm. Tomorrow I will complete the finish on some curly maple candle holders and I'll be done with the manufacturing for this show.

I have one more sign to design, and I have to affix two signs to a small billboard I built a couple of days ago. After that I only have to pick up a table we're renting and load the truck and we'll be ready to go. I will post the concluding chapter of this little saga, along with photos from the show, after our return Saturday evening... and by "after" I probably mean Sunday or Monday. Right now I need to rehab my knee. I tripped over a box of candle holders here in my office earlier and landed on my right knee. It's swollen and it hurts, but I'll recover fast.

Give-A-Way

If you buy anything priced at $15.00 or higher from my Etsy shop by October 1 I will give you those Style 2 bookends that are on sale right now for $5.00 each.  There are two of them, so that's $10 worth of exciting bookend joy just for you!

Just convo me at Etsy when you make your purchase and I'll include the bookends with your package, no charge for the products, no charge for shipping.

I'm doing this because I want to move these bookends out of my inventory.  These are great bookends that will serve you well for decades.  They are the last two of this design and I will not be making any more of them because I changed the design slightly and I'm only making the other version now, not that there's anything at all wrong with this design.

Just buy something and let me know you want the bookends and they are yours.  First come, first served.
