I’m mailing out postcards tomorrow! Everyone likes to get real mail, right? I ordered some postcards to get people excited for the art fair coming up in just one week…. Hopefully everyone is planning to be there or be square! This year I decided to provide a little extra incentive for people to purchase… a gift with purchase for collectors & students. AND, I’ve decided to extend the offer to my loyal blog readers too!
Naught Aunties Poster
So here’s the skinny for the Gift with Purchase! Receive a “Naughty Aunties” poster free with a minimum $50 purchase at any art fair (Salem or West Linn) or in my etsy shop(www.rutharmitage.etsy.com), or at your own studio visit. Simply email me (ruth @ rutharmitage.com) to set up a studio visit & bring a friend! If you didn’t get a postcard in the mail, just mention this blog post to get the same deal. It’s just my way of saying Thank you for being a reader 
Feel free to pass this offer on to a friend, too. I always appreciate referrals!
I got a postcard in the mail today too Mary Lou Zeek has an installation titled “Postcards” at Project Space II in Salem July 14 – August 1 2009. I’m looking forward to seeing it as I contributed a piece The opening reception is July 16 from 5-8 pm. Just another reason to head to Salem that weekend! Project Space II is located at 388 State Street and is open Tues. – Thurs. 11-5 and Fri. – Sat. 12-7. I hope you’ll stop in. And while you’re at it… visit the gallery across the street
I can’t believe it is already Thursday! AAAACK! Time has not been my friend this week. A few of my days got eaten by illness. I’ve been down with Vertigo. Spinning head, nausea, vomiting, the works 
And at my busiest time of year! Lots to do to get ready for the upcoming art fair, framing, shrink wrapping, labels, pricing, packing….. the list goes on! And throw in home inspections on the new house, 3 teens and their work schedules, supervising yard work, etc…. I love being busy, but this is a bit of overload! I have a feeling I will be having a few late nights of working in the studio.
Take care of yourself….. Relax a second, have a glass of wine. It will all get done.
I know…. it is amazing how calming even making a list is. (I know if I really get into trouble those studio elves will work their magic ovenight!) Thanks Carrie
Sorry to hear what a tough week you’ve had. No doubt you’ll get it all done with flair. Good luck, Margaret
Thanks Margaret
I hope you’re right!
My head is spinning just reading about your week! And I thought I had been busy . . . amazing how calming and centering a list can be, allows our thoughts to settle down knowing we don’t have to keep every little detail in our brain. I hope you are feeling good as you enter this next week.
Thanks Dayna
Hope to see you when I’m in Salem!
