When we moved our production space in to the new building, we knew we wanted to set up a retail area in the front of the building, and ONLY because of the help from our family and friends were we able to get so much done in such a short amount of time. We owe a huge “THANK YOU!” to everyone who helped. Here are a few of the hundred photos I took during the day. A lot of work made quick by a great group of people.
In addition to having wonderful family, our awesome friend and artist Angela Muller, agreed to allow us to show her beautiful Kansas Prairie Artwork in our new space. She also helped us connect with Kansas Artist Shannon Trevethan, who also agreed to allow us to show her beautiful Artwork in our building as well, making the front candle showroom a gallery of Kansas Inspired artist.
In addition to Angela and Shannon’s paintings, we also started carrying hand painted watercolor cards by Ellinwood artist, Michelle Younker, and more recently, handmade sterling silver jewelry by Kansas metalsmith and jewelry maker, Jimalene Haddon, along with more paintings from the creative mind of Steph Helms and one very special Sunflower painting on display by Ellinwood Artist Rhea Grandon (on loan from Christopher McCord.)
With a newly freshened Studio + Gallery, our new space is currently open to the public on Saturdays from 10 am to 2 pm. And, if you’re in town and see the lights on during the week, just come in and yell real loud, we’re back here making candles.
