Treasures!!!
Wednesday, November 4, 2009
I experienced the phenomenon of seeing one lone shoe lying in the middle of the street on the way into work. Just how does this happen?! Are they thrown out the car window?! Do they fall off when someone is running? Or, maybe they're left there on purpose to give drivers like me something to ponder while waiting in traffic. If that's the case, it works-I can always come up with a pretty good story in my head about how it got there......

I won!
I just love May Arts! They have the most gorgeous ribbons you'll find anywhere. I entered their "Ribbons of Christmas Past" contest, sending a photo of our Christmas tree decorated from last year, and I was thrilled to win. Click HERE to read more.
And the fun part? Deciding how I'll use all of the pretty ribbon that I won!

Whether they are pretty little angels with real feather wings, or sweet little guys with hats, I enjoy making each and every one come to "life".
It's back to work for the....the clock is ticking!

What's in a name?
Back in the mid 1980's, we moved into a new neighborhood. Chip and Sandy, the couple across the street, spent most of their time in their backyard, but were very friendly when we did see them.
Chip was always very kind and considerate to Sandy when we'd see them together, but then, it was the strangest thing, because we would hear him yell at her using a very commanding tone, like, "Get in here right now, Sandy", "Come when I call you", "Get in the car, NOW, Sandy". As time went on, I kind of had this growing dislike for Chip, puzzled how someone could seem so nice, but act like that to his wife.
Then, one day, quite awhile after we had moved in, this haggard looking dog came waddling over to our yard. Not far behind was Chip, yelling, "Come back here, Sandy"!
Yep, turns out their blind, deaf, old dog was also named Sandy. Chip really was a great guy after all!

It has lots of depth, texture and sparkle...(and you know how much I love sparkle!)
I think I'll make a set of four, each a little different, but similar.

Pictured here is a cone I made over the weekend. Created using glittered paper, layers of lace, satin ribbon and a framed image on the front.

Glitter boy.....
Bear follows me around like a shadow, and I think he got a little too close to some of my projects this morning-that's orange glitter shining on his fur.
But, just give him his bone, and he could care less if he's sparkling!!
