 WOW!

We had a Wonderful Weekend!

WOW, . . . by the time we got this back together, we were beginning to think we paid to much for it!  It was quite a Challenge,

 BUT, . . .

 I LOVE IT NOW!

 

Well, . . . that is pretty much it for now.

 

I do want to give a HUGE "THANK YOU!" to

my two Daughters, Lori and Jana,

my Mother - Mattie, my Sister -Rebecca, and my Son-in-Law - Chad for all of their Help!

(We took pictures, but they made me promise not to Post them on my Blog!)

I appreciate your Support and Encouragement!

I could not have done it without your Help!

None of this would have come about if it were not for my Husband - Garry.  I know there were days that he was wondering what he got himself in to.  Thank you for your Patience and for getting all of the "Honey Do" jobs done for me!

YOU HAVE MADE MY LONG TIME DREAM COME TRUE!

It sure feels GOOD to be Open!

Now Back to some Heavy Duty Quilt Work!

HAVE A GREAT DAY!

THE KITCHEN RENOVATION at DONNA's - In The Attic

The Kitchen Floor is in ~

 

They did a Beautiful Job!

We are One Step Closer to being finished!

We are down to the final few days before our Open House

 and

Sunday, October 17 ~ 12 noon - 4:00pm 

 

My new address is ~

704 S 2nd St

Canadian TX.

The Shoppe is easy to find.  Second Street is the Main Highway running through town. Coming into town and heading North, you will Spot an Allsup's on the East (right) side of the street.  Go past it just a bit and look on the opposite side of the street.  You will see my Sign.

Now, . . .  for the Final Decorating!

I will Post Pictures Soon!

I AM GETTING SO EXCITED ! ! !

HAVE A GREAT DAY!

Open House will be ~

Saturday, October 16, 2010 - 12 noon - 6:00pm

and

Sunday, October 17, 2010 - 12 noon - 4:00pm

Canadian has its Annual

 FALL FOLIAGE FESTIVAL

on the third weekend of October,

and so I decided I had to be OPEN for that FUN WEEKEND!

We are putting the final touches on the Kitchen ~

 

 

Garry put up the new lighting in the Kitchen and he has the floor prepared for the Tile which will be installed this weekend (we hired that done!) ~ 

Today, he worked on hanging my Sign on the outside of The Shoppe ~

 

It isn't finished, but at least it is hanging and we have a good start on it!

 There are still tons of last minute things that have to be done!

Orders for gift items have been placed and now I am just hoping everything gets here in time for the Opening! 

If you are in the Canadian Area, I would Love for you to Stop By and Visit!

HAVE A GREAT DAY!

MORE WORK IS GOING ON AT, . . .

DONNA's ~ In The Attic

I wanted to show you some the the latest improvements at

My New Shoppe ~

 

My Mother and Lori Beth did a lot of work this last week to get all of the kitchen painted!

I can't thank them enough for all of their hard work!

 

It is looking so much better!

 

The Breakfast Room is ready to be painted.

We still have to put up new lighting, baseboards, and crown molding.

The tile floor will be installed the second weekend in October.

I am getting anxious to get it finished!

HAVE A GREAT DAY!

SHOPPE UPDATE ~

We got a lot of work done over the Labor Day Weekend.

My Mother and Sister came up to help me with some of my Sewing Projects,

 

and

 

Garry worked on getting the Bathroom Fixtures installed.

He also got a lot of work done in the kitchen but I forgot to get a picture.

He has just a little bit of work left to do on the ceiling and then it will be ready for paint!

THANK YOU,

Mother, Rebecca and Garry for all of your hard work!

I am getting so excited for the

GRAND OPENING!

HAVE A GREAT DAY!

THE FRONT PORCH, . . .

cement was poured yesterday!

 

I think it looks so much better and it will certainly help to keep the dirt out.

 

(I just have to get the Front Door painted!)

BUT, . . .
we are ONE step closer!

Have a GREAT DAY!

~  DONNA  ~

WE HAVE STARTED CLEANING OUT THE ATTIC, . . .

and

moving everything into the New Shoppe ~

 

 

 

I have been working on curtains ~

 

and, . . .

Garry is still working on the kitchen ~

 

I will show you more later!

HAVE A GREAT DAY!

~  DONNA  ~

BATHROOM TILE ~

I forgot all about getting the Bathroom Tiled this weekend ~

 

Garry and I did not lay the Carpet or the Tile!

 

Those are two things that we have not attempted yet and figure it is probably better just to hire someone to do it for us.

Garry started putting the baseboards in today and I started moving some of my Shoppe Items in!

 

YEA ~ YEA ~ YEA ! ! !

We bought the Pot and Sink this past weekend, so Garry will start installing them after he gets the baseboards in.

I HAD SO MUCH FUN!
