Fun at the Flea Market
[info]valories_blog



I don't know about you, but I love the antiques - I picked this cute, cast iron rack up at a local flea market. Once a month, you can find great antiques and some great lemonade and every kind of oddity known to man. It's the perfect accessory to go with a cast iron, footed tub. Texas has another of the coolest flea market in Canton, TX too - it's just acre after acre of "stuff" - it's huge. 


Being well rounded......

It's always inspiring to change mediums  and do something different - it gives you new inspiration and lets you explore new horizons. I think about it so much that I wake up at night thinking  - "hey, I've got to try this or that" . I've been working lately on these dimensional pieces - it's been really fun and there are so many options it's great! I will try to get a couple of pieces for Valentines finished and posted soon!

Shopping, shopping, shopping
[info]valories_blog
My daughter and I struck out today and did a little shopping. We had to go visit our favorite store - Sharing the Love of Dolls. My daughter constantly begs to go there, so it's always a fun afternoon when we stop by to see Ms. Francis, the sweet lady that owns the shop. Here's a link to her ebay store - http://myworld.ebay.com/sharingtheloveofdolls/

Ms. Francis has everything from Madame Alexander and Barbie to rare dolls. Every inch of her shop is a wonder to behold and Andie can't wait to try and see every single doll in the store.

Just for fun, I posted this at the last minute - it's another painted canvas - glitter and the whole nine yards and a whimsy of the moon watching a little hot air balloon.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Pack your bags and take a quick trip to the cyber home of Ms. Gail Lackey with me. Hopefully she's back from her overseas travels and has a new post for us.

YOU REALLY need to see Gail's site! She is the most amazing artist and I am completely smitten by Gail's little "Ms. Pennythistle". Well actually, everything she creates! It's really worth a peek and it's the only site I've ever found where I didn't run screaming from the music! lol

Next, how about a quick peek in my studio?


This little cutey is my lastest wall hung canvas. It has a great ribbon hanger and comes ready to put up. You can see it at my Etsy store and the shippings on my right now.

And lastly, hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving and remembers to share whatever you can with someone in need.

My tiny bit of giving this month is for ShelterHEARTs.org - the local animal shelter support group.
www.shelterhearts.org

Thanks to Melodye and Deniece and (and Frank, you too) for all they do and also "thank you" to Jennifer White - a very special lady and one of the driving forces behind "the Friends of the Bowie Animal Shelter" which offers low cost Spay and Neuter Services to help keep down the number of unwanted animals in our community. A service that is greatly appreciated in our community.

For anyone that loves gardens or flowers, you have to take a look at the work of Marsha Tudor. She does the most amazing things with flowers - it's inventive and fresh and so unusual, I absolutely love her work.
