today i went antiquing... SOOOOOO fun... i found some little vintage valentines..
i just love that stuff... postcards..ads... little trinkets... vintage photos..
... i am sorta in limbo still.. most of my powertools are out in the garage .. the garage is NOT close to the house
&
quite honestly it has been cold & i just have been so bummed that i don't have my workshop set up..
but i will .. it will be warming up a bit.. until then i have a stack of canvases .. raw wood i am going old school.......... maybe i will throw in some of my papier mache.. or perhaps the doll i am making ...

stay tuned


oh this beauty is for sale here on ebay...

enjoy!

elijah...

click images to enlarge photos...
so my girlfriend a busy mommie of a beautiful 2 year old ...
has be disappointed about not having a fabulous room for her baby boy...
my opinion it IS fabulous...
but i agree it is difficult when you are in a rental and you can't really paint the walls ...
besides that they just moved in!

so i painted this little ditty for her baby elijahs rooom for christmas...

you like?
i love..
she loved to ..
& elijah was a very happy boy..
he held it & giggled ..
i love that ..
seal of approval!

it was difficult to photograph because it has so many textures & is so shiney ..
but if you click images the image enlarges & you can see details....

if you are interested in one for yourself or your little tiger..
i can hook you up too!!!

just shoot me an email....

happy happy new year..

how crazy! we baked tons of cookies.. made fabulous gifts & played ... my little desert boy is learning to ice skate.. snow ski.. sled... HA.. yes sled!
you can't do alot with a sled...
ex: can't huck it up the hill when you can not stand to lug it up one more time... it with out fail will spin & fly out of control topsy turvy & slide it's way back down the hill!

i forgot how fun sledding is... i had an absolute blast!!!

we made an adorable little snowman too!

i hope you had a festive holiday.............
