My first blog! How exciting! What should I write about? Hmmmmm.

Well, things are going wonderfully at the salon. I feel like I am busier than ever. That's a good thing! I can always take new clients. I love the challenge of a new cut and color and I love meeting new people.

I am also staying busy with teaching. In a couple of weeks I head off to Nashville for the Salon Service Group Hair Show. It's going to be fun. This year my role is very different. In years past, I have been assistant to the main Goldwell Artist. This year I am responsible for coloring and designing the color choices for a shampoo and styling line called Pureology. You see, the show consists of artists from many different product lines. At the Nashville show we have Pureology, MOP, KMS and Goldwell. Out of all these lines, Goldwell is the only line that does color. The rest are styling lines. So when the other lines give a presentation on a new cut, style or updo they have to make sure the model they are using has beautiful haircolor. That's where I come in!
So it's a new position for me. I am nervous and excited. In the past I just did what the artist told me to do. NOW I get to make the decisions!

Things at home are going well. Always a project around the house. Currently we are redoing our office. It used to be our bedroom. So where is our bedroom? It's in our old 'animal room' (which used to be called a library before we got all of our pets!). And now where is the 'animal room'? Well, they no longer have a room. The only reason we bestowed a room to our animals is because the dogs kennels were SO big that there was no good place to put them in the house.... except in that room!

So we (and that really means I) had an excellent idea for our new office. We (this time that means Christopher) took down the sliding doors to the closet, put up shelves and left space at the bottom for the dogs to hang. That's right, they have a bed right under our shelves. Now the kennels are folded up and in the garage and we have so much more room in the house! The dogs are so cute under there and they really like their new beds!

So the room is still 'under construction'. I still have to put my finishing touches on it. It sure is hard to decorate when your working with the paint color we chose. BRIGHT GREEN.
I'm trying not to make it look like a little kids room. It will take some time!

So that's it for me! Thanks for reading. Have a wonderful day!

Wow! The new site is awesome.

I love the before and aft's for inspiration and ideas to play with.

The highlights are killer-tho the pink and green--I think I'll give it a miss.

I like the apple green room and the closet thingy is a stealable idea :--)

Congrats A Million

WOW- GREAT SITE! I have to say- you did a very good job with the layout. I really like the green room. And who built those wonderful shelves? That took some skill!

Love the website and the green (both Alex and the room:) I can't wait to do fun colors and styles like that. Everything looks really good Donna. I really need to come see everything you have done to your house. I haven't even seen the big hole in your living room yet! Well have fun in Nashville, it sounds like it will be really fun!
