Something New at TimePieces

It has been almost a year since my last post. In January of 2012, I decided that a fresh coat of paint is needed in the shop. From painting one room, we kept going and going. By March, the entire shop has been repaired, updated and repainted. This is a fresh beginning to a new season at TimePieces.

When you walk into the shop and from the foyer, you will be in the front room.  This room is a very warm, creamy yellow.  This is the second room which was painted.  I love this color so much. 

From the front room, you will walk into the  personalized room.  You are able to browse among our many lines of personalized gifts, home decor, frames, and stationery.  A dear friend, Colleen Mikula, came into the shop on a deary January Winter day and said that I needed an uplift. She showed me a picture with this beautiful, exciting color and I fell in love. This was the first room I painted and the first time I ever painted. Painting became my meditation. Loved every moment.

 After I finished painting the front room, there were still two more rooms to paint. I was thinking about a brown for the third room.  Off to Sherwin Williams to check out their colors. The woman at Sherwin Williams said that I was missing an element of Feng Shui which was the blue family.  Looking and looking, I found the color.  A very subtle, but cooling and warming at the same time-periwinkle.

At this point, I had one more room to paint and  the sun room to clean out.  I took a week breather to think about the last room. I really did not want to add another color.  An idea, I will carry one color to the foyer and another to the last room.  So the last room is the yellow from the front room with one wall crisp white. When you enter the shop, the foyer is the periwinkle from the third room. A perfect balance and harmony. 

I am almost finished.  I cleaned the Sun Room and now a local artisan is displaying her beautiful unique designs, very Country Chic.  Ginger Cardot hand-makes everything in the room.  Stop by TimePieces for all your gifts and personalized needs. Become a friend on www.facebook.com/TimePiecesGifts to keep up with our news.  Enjoy!
