As my opening page indicates I have chosen PENOLA as d'meg&johl's permanent location. I will miss certain parts of being on the move and"popping up" all over the place but being in Penola is just like having different pop-up shops: I was amazed at how many tourists come through here .Penola felt right: it is a wonderful little township with so much to offer..and being  right next door to Coonawarra is a BIG plus.
2012 is going to be a great year: the year of the DRAGON with wings - so for those DRAGONS out there this is the year you are going to FLY!!  Toted as a year of change - most people would say that the changes started in 2011 and will certainly manifest to their fullest in 2012.
I have decided to open 4 days here (Thursday-Sunday) because I NEED to have time in my studio - to paint, design, sew - I NEED the balance. Being settled is going to give me the time and balance we should all have and being so close to family all year round will be a blessing. I'm doing what makes me HAPPY  ..... hope you get to do the same.
I wont leave it so long before I post my next Blog...talk to you soon Charms xx
