Yet another day that I cannot brag that the calendar is ready!  We are SO close!  Everything is painted and has been touched up in photoshop.  I’m on the last step of the calendar now, moving everything into InDesign to set up the layout for print.  It’s trickier for me still because I’ve only used InDesign once before…last year as a matter of fact when I made the first calendar.  Hee.  But rather than leave my readers empty handed, I thought I would share a few photos of the studio as we did some work on the house last weekend!  In addition to painting the master bedroom we installed a new set of blinds in my study.  On top of that, I have inherited this sexy iMac from our friend Brodie while he’s in beautiful Vancouver for the next few months.  I have to admit I’ve never been a Mac user, so it’s been a little bit of a learning curve, but I am loving it!  It’s nice having such a big screen to work off for starters, and compared to my little PC laptop that I’ve been using since finishing school, this machine is SO much faster.

The other quick project I got up to was to create a calendar for my wall, framed so that I could make an editorial calendar on top of it to map out my blog posts!  It was a quick sketch job to get that pretty lady on the wall, and I’m loving her already.

What are your plans for the long weekend?  Aside from finishing up this calendar business, we are wide open and I am thrilled about that!
