As most of you know by now, I've been having a lot of problems with my e-mail service for Velvet and Linen. Initially I used Feedburner to send out my posts, until I realized that many of my subscribers were not receiving the posts. So I signed up for Mail Chimp. My last blog post was sent out via this service. When I received the e-mail post, I was horrified. The subject of the email didn't even mention Velvet and Linen, and the images in the post were formatted improperly.
After getting several recommendations, I am now using FeedBlitz. Most of you have already received notice of this change. If this email was confusing, I apologize.
I am hoping that my e-mail post issues are now behind me, and my posts will be sent to all of you... and they will look pretty :)
Thank you so much for your patience!
Here are a few other things that we have been up to...
Last week, our clients' gorgeous Waterworks bath tub was installed. I love the mix of pewter and brass!
This fantastic tile was installed in our clients' powder room. The marble top of the brass pedestal sink will arrive this coming week. We are planning to install all of the furnishings in this house in mid-September.
At Patina Farm, we welcomed 6 new friends to the chicken coop. This is Rosie. She is a White Plymouth Rock chicken.
Our other new additions are: Marilyn, another two month old White Plymouth Rock, Buffy and Jody, both three month old Buff Orpingtons, and Kendall and Kylie (named by Leila), both 2 month old Sexlinks.
Over the weekend, I have been getting ready for the photo shoot that will take place this week at the French Normandy style beach house. I'm gathering vases, baskets, etc... and I hope to use our own lavender in one of the photos!
That's what's going on here. As always, please feel free to ask questions in the comment section of this post here.
Sending you hugs from Ojai!
