πŸ’š Operation studio clear out complete. BUT this isn't the end !! πŸ’š

SO

πŸ’š OH MY WORD !! πŸ’š

Good morning, good morning lovely people.

I CAN'T DO IT !!

It's been so emotional

BUT

Clearing out the studio has reminded me of all my plans and dreams when I first moved in. It's reminded me that I STILL love what I do, the passion is still there !!

OK, I can no longer continue in such a large space but I CAN and I WILL continue in a smaller space.

Further updates coming very soon

ALL CURRENT PAINTED FURNITURE STILL AT DISCOUNT ... www.copperandash.co.uk

πŸ’š ANNOUNCEMENT πŸ’š

Well this is a post that I'm struggling a little to write so bear with me.

Due to health and personal reasons I will be vacating the studio workshop at the end of March.

The past 4 years have been enormously challenging and draining and my body and soul needs to rest.

SO

After almost ten years in business, doing something that I truly loved, it is time for me to enter a new stage in my life.

To this end I will be selling off all current painted pieces at a huge discount and I also have a large collection of unpainted pieces available.

I'll sign off for now but watch out for further updates ... and if anybody local is looking for a large workspace and would like to take over ... pop me a message on [email protected]

Thank you so much everybody for all your support over the years.

Much love

πŸ’š SUNDAY THOUGHTS πŸ’š

When it's time to create something for yourself for the first time in years there's only one way to do it ... GO BIG !

THOUGHT PROCESS

I've had this beauty in my stash for ages and have always loved it
I'm currently in the process of decorating/reconfiguring spaces at home
I have the perfect spot

SO

Yesterday, whilst over at the studio for a pick up ... with the aid of my trusty trolley dollies, some lateral thinking πŸ€”, and a heavy dose of determination πŸ’ͺ.... I manoeuvred this beast out from under another sideboard.

LET'S DO THIS πŸ˜‰

Starting on it soon, keep watching for transformation

Have a fabulous Sunday All

Whilst I've been struggling, I HAVE taken on the odd commission piece. Only when the lovely people were in NO rush as I didn't want to risk disappointing, and I really couldn't deal with any added pressure.

SO

Here we have a mid century cabinet which was in a sorry state and also needed new glass doors.
Thank you so much to the lovely Liz for your patience and I'm so pleased you like the end result.

πŸ’š omg it looks amazing ! What a transformation, but still retains a lot of the original, it's lovely πŸ’š

Have a lovely evening folks

πŸ’š SUNDAY THOUGHTS πŸ’š

Long post alert ... which may be a tad too personal for some ... you have been warned 😘

Well you may (or may notπŸ€·β€β™€οΈ) have noticed I've been very quiet, and sometimes absent, from SM for some time.

This has been a conscious choice to

A. Enable me to focus on other priorities
B. Protect my emotional and mental health
C. Live my life free of interference
D. Remember why I started this business in the first place.
E. Work out if this why still works for me

I'd love to say I have things all worked out, but life isn't like that is it πŸ˜…

What I do know is that ... whilst I'm fundamentally the same person I've always been, with the same values and beliefs ... I've changed.
Without going into detail, the past few years have tested me, I have been subjected to things that have brought me to my knees and almost broken me.
This has forced me to change, to look at myself, to see my part in allowing this.

For a while I lost myself completely, or ... more truthfully, I didn't even know who I was anymore.

With the help of some very special family and friends ( and surprisingly people I've only met a few times plus relative strangers ) I'm starting to remember.
It's an interesting journey rediscovering who you are, who you always were, when you're free of other peoples words in your head.

Why am I sharing this ?
Because I feel the need to be honest and authentic about what is happening
Because someone else may be going through a similar thing and I want them to know they're not alone
Because lots of you have been on this Copper and Ash Interiors journey with me from the beginning and I appreciate you more than you know

I'm coming back
Things may be different
I'm clearing space for new beginnings
Keep watching

Love
Chris x

I'll leave you with a wee piece of whilst the world is going crazy.

πŸ’š Hello, hello, hello ... is anybody there ??

I've been missing for quite some time due to health and personal issues and I'm not sure if anyone is still around πŸ˜•

Do please let me know if you see this post 😚

There are going to be some changes at the studio, but I'm gradually getting back to work.

Starting with this sweet little rustic table ... owner has requested it be painted but kept rustic.

Sure I can manage that πŸ˜‰ ... watch this space.

πŸ’š WEDNESDAY WORDS πŸ’š

Stunningly beautiful stained glass, I think you'll agree

BUT

Have you ever considered

In order to achieve this beauty, the original pieces of glass need to be broken.

Then they are slowly and carefully put back together, not alone, but alongside other broken pieces.
The result is something infinitely more beautiful than the original. Incorporating all those broken pieces !!

Oh, and never forget, stained glass only reveals its true beauty when the light shines through.

Remember this if you're ever feeling that life has broken you down.

Much love
