I'm glad everyone else has picked up, but alass we have not. Here it is Friday, one week left to go and we are almost finished with Xmas orders. Not one order today or last minute folks. : Dec. seems more like June instead of the "Big Month" we usually have. Worst Xmas season ever!
Carbon copy Cody's post for me.
No orders today. One job left for Christmas, will complete that tomorrow.

Yes, they are coming out of the woodwork. Just wish we had more time...But some of it will be done in Jan.

The Christmas rush finally started for me this week. From listening to customer comments it appears that since Christmas is on a Monday, they think they have another whole week to shop! It will however be a slower December than I usually have.

Accent, we call them plague frames, so dry and brittle and full of splinters waiting to happen. And mildewed and sooty. At times like that I'm glad I got a tetanus shot. Customers are so proud of these frames, too. Wow, it's an antique and/or they're saving money. Ouch, I think I got another splinter.
