Studio Love: The Nest Has a Name!
Guess what Leigh-Ann and I did yesterday?
We gave the studio it’s name!
Up until now Lune Vintage has had it’s beautiful window vinyl up, but because most of our business is done with international clients we haven’t felt a rush to put up a sign. We’ve just had a little one that we made quickly… until now! Putting the vinyl up was a really fun and special moment that makes me feel even prouder when I see our little space!
LA is a pro, she showed me the ropes :)
And then I just had to try!
(I’m a relentless cheese ball!)
I’ve never felt like anywhere I’ve worked before (no matter how lovely) has been the right fit for me, and after that happens again & again, year after year? It’s a really lonely feeling. It feels so good to have such a beautiful home away from home, to be using my strengths, and to have such a fun & sunshiney space to spend my days. It’s so much what I’ve been hoping for, and I’m so thankful :)
Ah, you’re so cute in that window. This is big. You’re taking on the world, lady!
Cheesy… maybe. Adorable, definitely! It’s the little things!
So fun!! That’s very exciting to be settling into your new studio. I hope you have many great years there!!
Congrats! I’m so jealous. I’m longing for that feeling right now.
Also, I’m so impressed that you managed to make it look like Winnipeg hasn’t been miserable the last couple days. I can’t wait to stop by!
How exciting! Congrats!
Congratulations, Kyla!! It looks great… and you look so happy!
Greetings form Italy^^
that’s very exciting!! it looks great!
WOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! Congrats!!! That’s wonderful. ♥ I dream of working somewhere like you do! Also, your hair is smashing!!!
I gave you an award on my blog. ^_^
That’s such a beautiful picture of you in the window! You look gorgeous!
Huzzah!! When is the grand opening soiree? Hmmm?? Methinks a party is called for! Congratulations for creating your dream!!
Cool! Sometimes it’s the little things that bring it all together.
Hello Kyla! I’m happy for you! What a cute sign, although small its probably more eye-catching than regular black and white signs. Exciting!
aw kyla congrats. what a lovely sign. and yay for such a cute space and a wonderful job, woo.
this makes me a little giddy! ;) i can’t wait to come visit one day soon and see it in person!
so… while i reading this post, i had a little moment where it hit me, “oh my gosh… i WORK with them!! that’s my job!!”
;) love it.
So pretty! And so OFFICIAL. I love it! ;)
Oh, how exciting! :)
How fun! It looks fabulous!
How awesome! Congrats! PS Your hair looks like it’s getting long! <33
Oh my gosh, it’s positively unruly Chelsea! Send help!! lol
I think I’m trying to bribe Holly from Create Loves to come into the studio and have a salon day so I can get it cut into more of a bob shape as it grows out. Very exciting stuff! ;)
You look positively GIDDY! Love the design and the color :)
how exciting!
you look so beautiful in that last picture.
:)
So great! Love the design & typography. Awesome! And you, my dear, are fabulous. I love your cheese! :)
Aaw – lovely!! :) The name vinyl is just *perfect*!
Such cute photos and a sweet sign too. Can totally see the bliss in the last one ~ very sweet :)
Yay! How exciting that must be! =D
xo.
looks wonderful!
congrats to FN..you are so cute.
xoox
This is wonderful… one more step to perfection ;)
I cried…yup. I cried reading this post. & I’m still emotional thinking about it. How PERFECT! I’m SO happy for you & I really hope that something this special (which is a possibility) happens for me in the near futures. OMG, I’m so silly! You’re so cute Kyla… I <3 you…CONGRATS!
What cute vinyl! Congrats to FN!! It must be so nice to work in such a fun & creative environment, doing something you absolutely love.
I am so happy/proud for/of you. ;) Did you all make the vinyl letters yourself? I need to do something like that for a sidewalk sign at my next Fine & Dandy event. :)
It’s so cute! I love the font!
I’m so happy for you!! I’ve never fully enjoyed my places of employment either so I can only imagine how elated you must be. Oddly enough, just yesterday I asked the universe for guidance and when I arrived at work, I learned that my work had declared bankruptcy and would be closing in a few weeks. Haha, the universe is certainly vocal at times. I can’t wait for the classes to start so I can change this loss into a beautiful gain!
You’re adorable. :) I”m so happy for you!!
i am living vicariously through you! i feel like i need a change…your shop updates are super inspirational. congrats on all your happiness :)
CONGRATS!!!! We’re waiting on our window signage till after we decide if we’ll stay in the same space. Decisions. Decisions. But yours looks lovely!
Love it! Congrats beauty. You worked hard to get here and you 100% deserve it. So glad you’re so happy!
AWESOME! :D
so very awesome!!
congrats guys!!

That last photo is too adorable, seriously! I love it. Congrats on officially having a name up :) Thrilled that everything is going so well for you!
This makes me happy. You girls are so sweet! That must be the coolest place to work. REALLY cute earrings btw. :)
Awwwww!! That makes me so darn happy! Not just the name on the window… that’s superawesome and exciting too… but to hear that you really found/created something that is right for you and is making you happy!!! Everyone should have that feeling – I think it’s just not normally taught to us that we CAN have that feeling – you know! Way to go, Kyla and the rest of the FN team!! xoxo hugs from Iowa, USA :)
I don’t think I’ve ever seen you *this* happy, Kyla. Post in and post out, you are glowing. Your life as it now stands really becomes you and it most definitely shows!
How wonderful! I’m glad that you’ve found your place in the world :)
Awww, I love it! FN has been such a good fit for you and that makes me so happy.
Also, what color nailpolish are you wearing in the photos? I’ve been lusting after a brown shade.
again, you guys are an inspiration and seeing how happy this step makes you makes it seem like anything’s possible. for anyone. including myself. congrats again and again! xoxo
yes! that looks amazing! so happy that you have a job you are totally in love with. :)
and you’re just the right level of cheese ball, hehe. i love it!
So exciting! :)
Yay! What a great little vinyl too – so chic but simple – just like Freckled Nest!!!
Hooray! The sign is lookin good! :D
I’ve had the same experience with workplaces… no place has quite felt *right*. Luckily, I’m too busy with grad school to even have a job right now, but I’ve vowed that the next job I have will be one that I love, and one that has to do with my field of study – no retail or desk jobs! So glad you’ve found your “place”!
xo
Congrats, how exciting!
And I know how you feel about never feeling like you’re in the right place, I’m still searching for my right place. :)
Congrats! Looks totally awesome (^_^) And you look totally happy *yay*
