Hectic times here at Chez Smallenburg. The basement flooded because our sump pump failed. We have a finished basement with carpeting, base molding, furniture and stuff. Fortunately it wasn't too bad nd the company we called (PuroClean) was really fast and efficient. They took out the padding and brought in huge blowers and heaters and dehumidifiers to dry everything out. Did I mention really loud blowers and heater and dehumidifiers? Lucky for me I got to escape to Small Studio while John held down the fort. At the same time the sump pump had to be replaced which required John to spend more time at home. Now we are waiting for the padding to be replaced and the carpet relayed and on it goes.
A few new things at Small Studio this week.
New Recycled Silk Sari Ribbon:
Juicy, isn't it? Now it also comes in plaited cording:
We also have a number of greeting cards that are NOT Hallmark. Among them are some beautiful collage cards from Andrea Matus DeMeng.
And just in case you are missing an arm or leg for your next project, we have some.
GO FORTH AND CREATE!
Oh Ginny....:( I'm so sorry to hear about your flood. Ugh. Hope it's dry and mold free asap. Art helps!

It never ends with a house. Your basement was so lovely too. Hope you had insurance to cover this.

Thanks for the sympathy. Yes, insurance covers most of it. Just so inconvenient.

Hi Ginny, Thank you for stopping EyeForDesignLFD and your kind remarks. Your "arms" would have been the perfect image for my bike wreck post. lol I love the wide ribbon, especially the French writing and map
ones. How much are they? I hope you have a wonderful (dry) weekend. Lisa
