Pretty Flowers

I wish I was here today. It was a wedding I did a couple of years ago. It was a carefree day. Even though its Friday there is lots of work to get done. It seems like when you work at home it never stops...ideas to write down...paper to cut...blocks to cut and finish drawing...iron dish towels for a print run...never mind the kids,cat, and husband...they are a totally separate issue!

Turquoise How Lovely You Are!

I think I found this image from one of my favorite blogs House Of Turquoise. The picture is from House Beautiful. Every time I see something like this I am so tempted to paint my living room turquoise...but then I think your kitchen is turquoise and someday soon your bathroom will be along those same lines...and Do I Really Want To Move All The Furniture Again???? So I will just admire this lovely scene.

Cool Cards

This is one card in a set of "Nerd Girl Cards" by Tikikiki. I think they are Awesome...with a capital A no less. Go get yourself some okay?

Wanna See Something Cute?

Well that is if you like babies...Say hello to Jack! He is my best boy ever!!! By the way his 3 month birthday is tomorrow.

Happy New Year!

Well 2010 is finally here and I am still exhausted from Christmas.

Here I am with the snacks and cookies...and the most delicious coconut cake...I wish I still had some! We had a yummy dinner but I was too tired to photograph it. I made an apricot stuffed pork loin roast and yes it was delicious!

Here is the table...not too fancy

Here are the star garlands Sophie and I cut out from old anthropologie catalogues and Victorian trading company wrapping paper.

Here are some gifts wrapped in peach tissue paper,yarn and hand cut tags. All I can say is I will be glad when next Christmas comes around because it sure is hard to get things done while you are breast feeding a gajillion times a day!

Its Beginning To Look Like Christmas

A scene from our little, itty, bitty tree...


Our Christmas Star...with a turquoise feather boa( of course!) and star lights!

Spooky Christmas frogs...I wonder what they do when we go to sleep?

Ethereal...Sparkly...Hazy... Christmas Tree!

I love this photo! It was yesterday evening...the lights... that is what the holiday is really about during this dark time for me...although its not so dark as compared with other places around the world!

So Now I have to wrap up gifts this weekend...finish decorating...the paper star garlands are almost done...baking and lots of baking will be going on this next week...Oh the holiday madness!

I love it! So there will be more photos!

What To Do With Your Chistmas Cash?

Some people get cash for Christmas...Wow!...I wish I could get scads of cash...Are you listening Santa???? Anyway if you are one of the lucky ones I thought I throw out some ideas for you to drop those after Christmas dollars!

My first idea on how to spend your money are these fantastic earrings above by VeraRodrigues.



Above are a set a super cool cups by circaceramics. They have an amazing selection of ceramics.

This coloring book by ClaudiaGPeason is currently sold out but its so cool! Maybe she will have one in stock by January.

If I wore belts...I would so wear this Turquoise Poppy Belt by MoxieandOliver...I would so take anything from this shop.

I love this bag with all my heart...Its called a Truffle Bag and the teal color is amazing. The shop is called Morelle and if you love bags... which I'm sure you do...you should go there immediately!
