Redecorating!

Yes, it's time to add more workspace. Already.
We are crazily working away and rearranging, cleaning and redecorating!

When you come into the Studio in the new year, you'll see new vintage treasures, furniture and art & craft supplies for sale. There are new items from local Artisans, more table space to spread out and a new workshop calendar.

Pictures coming!

BDS has a new Meet-Up!

I'm so excited to have started a meet-up for the studio! I think this is a sure-fire way to build our art community.


The 1st Thursday of every month at 6:30pm will be a "Let's Meet" mixer.
Members will be able to meet each other, have space available to work on a project, show off their art, be inspired by others, see what the studio has to offer (changing all the time) and have input on groups, events and the direction of the meet-up group(s).

Here's the link: ArtSpace at BDS
Hope to see you!

More announcements to come!

On with the Holiday shopping!

Punk Rock Flea Market was a great success but, alas!

As of this date, there are still 15 more shopping days until Christmas!
You can find handmade treasures, vintage goodies, odd supplies for your crafter-friends and vintage holiday decorations right here in the

Studio Store at 237 Elm St, Everett, WA 98203

Today we feature *drumroll here*


The local owner and creator, Kim, makes many products. Some, I am lucky enough to have in the Studio Store and some you can pick up from her etsy shop.

My favorite Pepo Park item? The Pet Soap. It has Tea Tree oil which is a natural anti-bacterial and soothing to the skin so no more after bath, itchy puppies! At $6 a bar it's a steal! The Salve for dry winter hands knees, elbows and feet is also wonderful and a perfect size for a stocking stuffer.

Come by and shop Tuesday thru Saturday, noon to 7pm

Beginning Workshops!

I've added a section to the left ~~>>
that shows the scheduled workshops for the upcoming month! Yay! A real calendar. Of course if there is something you're interested in and the time just doesn't work, email me and we'll figure something out.


I'm always interested in feedback regarding different times of day and new ideas for workshops. Workshops can range from beginner to intermediate.

We have many talented artists and artisans in the community that would love to share their craft! If you are one of them and haven't let me know, please do :) The workroom is available for you to be the host your own workshop OR for you to be a guest instructor.

Meet the Mascots


This is
Sir Roy
,

formerly Roy,
formerly Corduroy.



When joining us in the Studio, if you have allergies or other adverse kitty reactions, let me know and I will send them to their room! (It's the entire upstairs so not a problem).

They will also likely be upstairs during workshops as Zoey has the insatiable
need to "help" with everything you may be (trying) to work on.















This is Zoey.

formerly Kitten Face,
formerly Sparkles.

It took about a dozen photos per cat to get these with the least amount of movement. As you can see, it wasn't a complete success.
