Treasures

If you're thinking "my Grandma had those curtains!", she probably did.

Thrift store vintage "Sears" curtains become really cute retro pants (including ruffled cuff).

I really, really thought I took pictures of the curtain, but can't find them. I WILL get better at organizing my photos!

materials in waiting...

Finally spent a couple solid hours in the studio, loved it. There was stuff (toys, paper, fabric, etc.) piled a foot high on my drafting table and a solid layer of stuff on the floor. Not to mention I had yet to clean out the cabinets after the sanding project and they were still full of dust. Made lots of progress today and hope to do more tomorrow.

So, while dusting and sorting materials I snapped a few shots:








so many materials, so little time!

oops...too long since I've posted, and this is why....





SPRING!
I'm a terrible gardener, because I garden like I decorate our home...I keep wanting to move things around. My poor plants have been moved and moved again so many times I'm pretty sure their growth is stunted so much that they will never reach full potential! Oh well, too nice to resist when it is so sunny, warm and beautiful outside!
Hey look, it's an art project after all...the piece at the center of the arbor is the very first piece of wood and wire art that I did. whew, there it is, creativity.
Hope you are all enjoying your springtime.
