I forgot to post the almost finished heat press station! I have just a few more items to add. The heat press will get added after I finish making stuff at home. It doesn’t look like a lot of stuff, but you would be surprised how much fits in those two totes!

Here we go again! Weekend work is under way.
Carl is working on converting a cart we already had into a portable heat press station. The dream for this station is much bigger, but has to start with what we already have due to the budget. Nancy does this cart look familiar? I’ll be taking a little piece of Maple Mart ❤️ with me to every show!!!
I’ll continue to work on the next steps of the 12” round signs and Wiggle Butt leash holders for most of today. If all the stars align, I’ll have a little extra time to do some designing for a new secret item we’re adding and debuting at the Rustic Mamas show in September!!!

You guessed it, we’re still busy buzzing around! 😂 Carl built removable carpeted racks to go over our wheel wells in the trailer so the big boxes would ride safe and secure. And just like that our mobile shop switches over to storing and hauling for the first time. I absolutely love that we can get from one end of the trailer to the other without unstrapping anything! If you know, you know!! Our bigger trailer totally rocks!
Now back to the craft room to keep creating!!

This B had such a long weekend! It’s great to be home and producing product, but I’m exhausted and sore! Saturday I had all four printers humming away from 10:00 am to 10:00 pm. I also got a bunch of burp towels blanks sewn.
On Sunday, Carl and I did some touch up work to the wooden boxes. We cleaned and moved almost everything out of the trailer and back into the boxes for fall! We started in the morning and finally called it quits some time after 7:00. We still have some towel baskets to go through tonight, and then the move should be complete!!
I was too focused to remember to take any good pictures!! Only got a pic of my printers working hard!!!
