lots to do! Architecture

Birdhouse!

http://lotstodocallenges.blogspot.com/2010/06/week-25-architecture.html

I met a new artist!

I went on a garden tour sunday and met a local artist who makes beautiful ceramics. She had several tall garden items made of different blocks stacked one on top of another. One had a ceramic birdhouse on top and was glazed in shades of white, stunning!!!

Did I have my camera....no!!!!!!

Any way she has an etsy shop and I posted her link below. I think you will enjoy her very original creations.

I hope cheryl and I will see each other soon and so glad she lives close by.
