Just some thoughts

One year ago at this time I don't know who I am or where I was. But I must have been in a nightmarish hallucinogenic nether land between neither living nor dead. And here I am at least for awhile. I said why? and someone else said why not?

DIY Parisian Bulletin Board - So Shabby Chic!

DIY Parisian Bulletin Board

Using an old bulletin board or frame with a backing, paint it white with acrylic paints (I used the craft paints in a bottle). Let dry and then wipe on a black , watered down, and then wipe it off to give it a more antiqued look.

Rambling On In March

March is here and it came in with a wimper. Breezy spring weather with sunshine (or rain!) and spring birds singing all day and frogs peeping all night. Planted seeds that have begun sprouting and for some reason have been gathering moss and pieces of this and that for terrariums. One and a half being finished.

My little friend came over and made a leprechaun bottle of gold necklace and then a leprechaun trap.

I have been busy participating in Treasury Blitzes on Etsy with a team that I belong to "TeamKitsch." This is one of my many Treasuries that I have created. The rules are to include one item from each participating member of the team and then select other shops from searching what ever my topic is for 16 pictures for that particular treasury. Here is one of my many treasuries titled: "Party Down"

This a mixed media painting I am working on.

Making and Doing

I have had lots of energy and have been on the road to recovery. Ever since the weather turned cold and we finally had snow, I have been outside every day and I have been walking myself, walking Kilala and hauling sleds full of wood for the wood stove. There just isn't enough hours in the day to get all the things done that I want to. My head is just spinning from all the projects I am doing: artwork, decorating, organizing my house from being in the hospital and away for a year, and new ideas to do every day. Things to cook and bake-where's my Mom when I need her to tell me her recipes?
