I was asked to donate something from The Golden Button to Fraser Woods School in Newtown, Ct
for Their Gala…. An Evening in Wonderland . I couldn’t have been more excited.
I did this portrait of the March Hare. 
I just love Alice in Wonderland.
I want to thank everyone who braved the snow to come paint at The Golden Button! I had fun!
Happy Leap Year!!!!
Our Open Painting Workshop is scheduled for today, tomorrow, and Friday from 2-6 PM.
I hope you can come by and Pick a canvas and create a masterpiece.
But since today is snowy…..
I am going to the shop which is only 3 minutes away from my house but I realize if I didn’t own it I would be in bed watching Downton Abbey or Mad Men and not going outside in the snow…. but I will be there for at least a few hours… So in addition to today, tomorrow, and friday we will also have Open Painting available on Saturday from 12-3 PM. For those of you who do not enjoy being wet and cold. ❤
So if you feel like swinging by today I will be there at 1:30 PM. (but if you want call first (203)910-9948 that’s fine)
Happy Snow day!
My friend, Amanda, thought we should change the work/table/area so it serves as a better studio… So that what we are doing.
Last week I went to Seymour Demolition where I picked out all these old doors. My Father had to go pick them up in his truck… Then we cleaned them up a bit and my father and husband spent yesterday attaching them together and putting them up. I am very excited about this space. The Golden Button shop was originally meant to be a painting studio/ art gallery for me but it evolved into the wonderful local- handmade items shop it is today. We do enjoy a lot of workshops so it makes sense to have a workshop/ studio area.
I am about to run down to the shop to measure, move, paint a door, rearrange and other fun stuff.
This should make workshops a little more private.
(These photos were taking during construction)
Wall is up…. Over the next few weeks I will make curtains and maybe a coffee/ tea area back there.
Lots of planning in the works.
Don’t forget that this week we are having Leap Year Open Painting Workshop!!! Which is going to be awesome!!! This Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday!
Wear a smock or old clothes.
We are also having a sale on some of the scarfs and winter items at the shop. I hear it is supposed to snow this week! (I am not actually excited about that so maybe you should ignore the exclamation point!)
The Golden Button now has Gift Certificates available for purchase!!!
They make great gifts, come in any amount, and can be used towards Workshops!!!
Just another reason to love The Golden Button!!!
There are still spaces available in this weeks knitting and crocheting workshops!
We are going to be having a fun little event for Leap Year!!!!
On Wednesday, February 29th,
Thursday, March 1st
and Friday, March 2nd
from 2:00 to 5:00 pm
And…
The Golden Button is sooooo excited!!!!
We just got our awesome Golden Button stamp… Handmade by Green Garden Stamps in Ellington, Ct
Don’t they look cute!!!
