Recently...


strips of fabric cut & ready to make more necklaces

a few more necklaces

my butterfly plants are blooming, yay

a squash, or zucchini plant(not sure which one yet),
has sprouted from the area where the compost pile used to be,
so exciting & the basil re-seeded itself in the same spot, haha


centerpieces at the divisional party my friend & I decorated for work
it was carnival themed so cotton candy, confetti & balloons did the trick



signs we painted





cool photo op with the left over balloons

Something about this picture...

makes me happy.
The color, scale, quirky artwork?
Anyway, we should all be happy
because it's a 3 day weekend!

of hard work on a Friday...
making outfits out of upholstery!
Hahaha!
