We've been operating at a bit of a frenzied pace here at the studio for the past few weeks.  Building the design HAUS and preparing for our Christmas Open House has had us all-consumed and buried in saw dust!  With the open house date fast approaching, we wanted to send out a few reminders and some more information about Christmas at the Studio: -Christmas at the Studio will take place on Saturday, November 30 and Sunday, December 1, from 10:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m. each day.  If you plan to attend, please *pre-register here* so we can get an approximate number to give to our fabulous caterers.   Please remember that there is no charge to attend the event!  We are simply wanting to make sure that there is enough holiday cheer to go around. -We have been working with two chefs to coordinate a delicious taster's menu for the open house.  They will not only prepare a gorgeous sampling for our guests, but will be available to discuss tricks of the trade and offer entertaining ideas for the holiday season as well.  We are really excited to see their creations displayed on our own studio50 housewares! -Construction of the design HAUS is well underway and is looking great!  But, while Steve is a super-man, he is (arguably) not super-human.  The new studio will not be complete by the open house, but we will be offering mini-tours of the building that is soon-to-be. -We have been asked about whether we will have larger furniture available for purchase at the open house.  We just wanted to be clear ahead of time that we will have a selection of studio50 housewares available for purchase.  Cutting boards, trenchers, rock-bottom vessels, pallet troughs, and loft clocks will adorn the studio hoping to woo their way into the hearts of a new home.  *Supplies are limited, but we will be happy to take custom houseware orders for the holiday season if anything sells out. Thanks to those who have pre-registered already!  We look forward to seeing you in a couple of weeks! Kim & Steve
