Meet Me in St. Louis…

This week, FlyChicks is being featured on a local facebook page that promotes things to do and see around around the St. Louis area. “Meet Me in St. Louis” was started by Barbara Heise , a Keller Williams real estate agent in the St. Louis area. She wanted to inform buyers and sellers of the great things that go on around town and in specific areas from week to week.

Check out their Facebook page and “like” them to keep up on the happenings! You can even write in to inform fellow followers on things to do and see.

studio tour: before pics---but no judgments ,please! :)

So I have been trying to get my life a little more organized, and I figured the best way to start doing so is to clean up and organize my lovely studio. You see, my first “studio”, more commonly referred to as “the dungeon”, was dark, gloomy, and pretty much the farthest thing from inspirational. It was really the only area in our old house that I could have full reign over. It was in the basement. It was dark. Scary. Cold… (note the wood paneling….uhg.)

Soooo, when we moved into our current house, I kinda made it a big deal that I NEEDED to be upstairs, surrounded by bright lights and nature. No more dirty, dark, dingy basement for me!

I LOVE my studio. Most of the time. Especially when it’s nice and pretty and organized.

And now, for the unflattering promised pics of my workspace… AGAIN---NO JUDEMENT! I’m an ar-teest!
