Button...Button...
A jar of buttons looking all pearly and bright in the sun.

Mmmmm...
Another odd public admission...When I am washing dishes I love to see the dish drainer unknowingly turn into a visual feast. Bright green mixing bowl here, pink colander there, a little striped juice glass balanced nearby. You get the idea. This particular morning my mom had created this masterpiece. Loving our new Jill Wiener bowls with the chintz!

Threadbare No More
I finally picked up my pile of old silk spools, buckles and buttons and got to work. Here is the thread and doo-dad necklace completed. It was a blast to make and a blast to wear. The thread has started to unwind and knot up around the beads a little...even though I gave it a little dab'l do ya of glue...and I thought it would be a problem...but I love it even more!

Cat Nap. Goat Nap.
These two goats live down the street at my cousins house and on a recent visit I caught them napping. If you are a very busy goat and have to steal your naps standing up, this looks like a pretty nice way to do it!

Ride em' Cowboy
"I'm an Ol' Cow Hand...From the Rio Grande" ...I love how Harry Connick Jr. sings that song. (Irrelevant...sort of.) I gave this bag to my mom as a present...then I looked across the room and noticed her wire "cow." Both photo worthy I thought...and perfect complements to the actual critters that were thundering around in the field this afternoon.

2008 Highlights
I had a request back in January to list some of my favorite things of 2008. So, I am a little behind...but I have a good excuse...I've been painting! A lot. Anyway...here is the list (in no particular order) better late than never...which i am noticing has become my mantra lately. Oh dear...is February too late to declare a New Year's Resolution!?
1. Fabulous: Soaking in a little west coast style and culture. A trip to Seattle and Portland in January. Just for fun. Loved the Ace Hotel in both cities, good beer, and stunning shopping.
2. Outrageous: Climbing aboard the Yankee for Victoria & Richard Mackenzie-Childs Ferry Boat Ball. Up close and personal with the art and the artists. A feast for the senses. Simply amazing.
3. Breathtaking: Hiking the Long Trail in Vermont. Impossibly hard...but views worth the effort.
4. Terrific: Being a part of the Earth Angels events. Mingling with all the Earth Angels artists, Jen O'Connor...and meeting Jo Packham. I truly am a lucky girl.
5. Astonishing: Making my way to the Country Living Fair in Columbus. Mingling with all the Earth Angels Artists under the tent in the sky. Eating whacky and unforgettable ice-cream with Jane Dagmi and the gals from the mag.
6. Super: Dolling myself and my studio up for a photo shoot for Where Women Create!
7. Marvelous: Spending time in my studio...of course!!
