Week 1

DO WORK!

 So... contrary to popular belief, I thought I would show you that I actually am doing an internship, and I actually don't just sit around all day :)  ie  this lovely wall hung plate display above a custom NK bed.  Yes, Erin and I worked on this, and it turned out pretty good!  Todd and Amy we're pleased, which is of course, what we aim for.
 So on the second day of my internship, we we're asked to go get coffee for the crew.  Every Tuesday we have our planning meeting for the following week and discuss what needs to happen, and of course, they must have their coffee to get their brain going.  I was sure to ask EXACTLY what they wanted since I'm not so savvy in the coffee world, and it turned out to be a success.  As you can tell.... I was excited.  We haven't been asked to get coffee since, so Erin and I either did so well that they decided not enslave us to such a task, or it was so bad that they just decided to get it themselves now... I guess I'll never know.

This is my working hard at the light store.  They're always very slow at this place (which is why I won't provide any names) so I was able to sit for a good 10 minutes while they were looking for our order, hah.


THE one-and-only NK Shop


Our task the first week was to organize the back storage room.  Nickey Kehoe had recently moved into this new space a few months before we arrived, so there were still lots of boxes to unpack and organize.  I was able to build some custom shelving for the room to help with the storage issue.  Just a before and after picture (which aren't even taken of the same wall or anything... but you can imagine... maybe).


Nice and organized :)


And the completed hung plates.


This first week has been great, and Amy and Todd and Linnea are such a great easy-going team to work for! I'm excited for the weeks to come.

One time we went to the Getty Center, it was awesome :)
