A little bit about my recent absence here at Classic Amy Joanne. Thru this year I have been changing things up in life and the biz (read here), all while fulfilling my previously scheduled and promised obligations ~ then during late Summer and the Autumn seasons one thing happened after another like a twangy country …

Something BIG is going on…… again! Remember the Replica of a 5 ft Vintage Santa and all his Reindeer (read here), and then the Baby Room Mural (read here), and the two Restaurant Menu Boards (read here)? …and each time promising myself it would be the last BIG project.
