another one bites the dust

A sad farewell to just another magazine to bite the dust.  Country Home is no more ;( 

Charm Me

 

I made this charm bracelet last night from gifts that I have received and have been collecting.  The plastic vintage Cracker Jack horse charms were a bday gift from my dear Judi and the vintage metal horse charms from my other dear Judy - hmm just realized they are both Judy/i 's involved here ;)  the black roses are vintage beads from a trip to Bainbridge Island some years back and the brass charms are from my recent trip to French General.  The one thing I love most about this piece is that the intentions of my friends are within in it and when I wear it they are all with me.  And yes I made something Just for ME!

A Field Trip to French General

Kaari, Me, Judi

It's a field trip to French General with Judi to visit with Kaari.  What a feast for the eyes!  I could have stayed longer than the long time that we did - so much to see and soak in.  It's like a wonderful treasure nest of delights.  Filled with nooks and crannies of color.  Kaari is lovely and inspiring - can't wait to go back!!!

 

Another SOulful Song

A Blog-along part deux in LK's WAKING UP

A song that makes you think or feel soulful - this is one of my favorites by the Weepies

Journaling from this weekend

I thought I would share some of the journaling I did this weekend.  Interesting when you have a good chunk of time where your work goes - for me it was more about my painting process on paper - drawing the image, adding color ( colored pencil and caran d'ache here) and then going back to add details.  I realized I draw the same way in which I paint - that the process is the same.

Happy Birthday to Me!

Yesterday was my 41st birthday and it was a great day.  Filled with family, friends and heartfelt wishes!

It's a Music A Long
