Story behind my new "header"!

A picture from my mom's stuff! This photo was attached to a note that read...
"Due to the extreme mental strain of an evening spent at the smith's, any of the above models may be located at one of the better known state institutions"!
My mom is on your left and my aunt is on the far right!
As you can see, my mom went for the "basic" altered newspaper...cut a hole in the middle of the newspaper and put it over your head!
Glad you all enjoyed seeing it!

A special valentine!

Executive decision!!!!!

Thank you!
Thank you very much!!!
Playlist is discontinued due to the fact is was driving me crazy....even though I love the songs! I usually do all my art in the quiet of my studio. Even when I go for a walk I do not listen to any music. I like the sound of silence. I received 2 comments re playlist and I really appreciate the feedback!

So, please continue to come by and if you want listen to your ipod!

Turn down your volume!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I just added playlist and don't know what I am doing...seems a little loud to me! I tend to like the music with alota beat to it!
Let me know if it drives anyone nuts and I'll remove it!
Rather have friends come by than have playlist on my blog!!!

How my crazy mind works!!!!

In 1990 I had this idea! I had no grandbabies and wanted to shop for baby clothes. So I found this bear in the Tender Heart catalog which was just about 1 year old size. Now I could go shopping! I bought new outfits and accessories for each bear (35)! I thought they would make great baby shower gifts! Then, another idea....what about those favorite outfits of your own or others special baby outfits we saved in a box...now, we had someone to wear the clothes again! How about a 3 or 4 year old who could dress the bear in their old clothes. Or big sister or brother who could dress their own baby! Anyway, it was fun and I sold them all! Some went to new mothers and some went to grandchildren of buyers.
