This Month's Workshop

Wednesday 5 September 2012

Been a Little Busy...

Wow... it's been a month since we last blogged about anything happening in the Studio!  This is mostly due to the fact that our resident blogger, Sarah, was getting MARRIED!! 
 
This beautiful photo was taken on the wedding day by Amy Nieto Photography based out of Portland, Oregon.  Amy was assisted on the wedding day by Linnea Castro of Linnea Paulina Photography, also from Portland, Oregon.  Amy and Linnea did an amazing job, and we can't wait to see ALL the photos. 
 
Sarah's wedding was put together by the extraordinary Sheena and Karen from Simple Soiree Weddings & Events from Chilliwack, BC. 
It's not always easy putting together a wedding, but these ladies made it look right down breezy!
 
Gitte from Bella Roma Florist located in Downtown Chilliwack, BC, did a gorgeous job with the flowers. 


Bella Roma is the place to get all your flowers done, for any occasion.  I, myself, don't go anywhere else anymore.  They are always so fresh and divine.

 
You'd think once Sarah was finished getting married and all that jazz, she'd get her hitched butt back to work!  She did just that, by photographing our friend Emily's wedding just ONE WEEK after her own.  For those of you who only know our Sarah from working in the Studio, she's also a local photographer with Sarah Sovereign Photography.  Sarah does all our in Studio photos now, and is responsible for most of those very cool looking CMM - Chilliwack cover photos on our Facebook page.  Emily is a an employee of The Book Man and also runs her own theatre company, Bootstrap Theatre. 
Sarah was assisted by Tanya Nelmes of Chilliwack's Bells & Babies Photography.
 
Congrats to Jamie & Sarah Finley on your marriage.  It was an honour to be a part of the incredible journey (that I'm still slowly recovering from...) and most importantly your very special day.  I love you both, and we can't wait for you to get back to work!
 
Now, for what's been happening in the Studio over the last month!
As you know, the 6th Annual Give a Dog a Bowl contest was running all Summer long.  We had some great entries this year.  Two of our regular customers, Karen Davies and Grant Hussey won the over 12 and under 12 categories, respectively, locally.  Both were then sent to CMM Head Office to be judged by Peanuts Worldwide.  And guess what?!  Grant's bowl for Tiger won the big prize!!  Grant will be receiving a Family Painting party here in the Studio in the near future, as well as a Peanuts Video Library.  Grant's bowl will be used in the advertising for the 7th Annual Give a Dog a Bowl contest next Summer!!
Congrats Grant!
 
Color Me Mine - Chilliwack also started booking parties online!  When you visit our website, and gander at the Party section, you will see a link "BOOK IT NOW!".  Click on that link and it will take you to our Partywirks page where you can book your party from your own home at any time of the day. 
 
It's been a very busy Summer of 2012 here at CMM - Chilliwack!  We're looking forward to our even busier seasons: Fall and Winter!!  All of our Halloween stock is out and our Christmas stock will hit the shelves October 1! 
 
See you soon!
