Many Mini amazing things

So Keek was commissioned by a woman on Etsy (her site is back up and running, go check it out...at www.detailinminiature.etsy.com) to reproduce a few mini vignettes she saw on the site.  The catch?  She wanted them to be EVEN smaller than they were!  She needed them to be in 2" scale.  But alas, Keek was able to pull it off (as if we ever doubted!) and into the mail they went.  A little while later she received word that the customer had received them and LOVED them (of course!).  But here's the kicker, the client turned out to be the President of the New Orleans chapter of NAME (that's the National Association of Miniature Enthusiasts) and was using them in a display at a state conference!  How cool is that?  Way to go Keek!
Keeknbeese are hard at work getting trying to get our @#$% together and get this biz goin'.  New cards are in the works, many projects are underway, and our next shows are set.  Keek will be joining some new friends for a Christmas show at the historic Conrad Mansion the weekend before Halloween and then Keeknbeese will be at the Vintage Whites Christmas show and Snow Ball on Nov. 19th.
Today the girls took a road trip to pick up some junk.  We filled a pickup truck and an aluminum boat with some great stuff! Can't wait to get it unloaded and "re-fab-ed"!
When Beese got home she was so happy to find her new piano (a great Salvation Army find) in her living room.  Don't you just love the sound of a real piano?  It looks amazing and the kids love it too!  Bonus.  Now where to put the lockers we also scored.... better go find our tapemeasure!
