Just finished and added to etsy

Old Doll, inspired by the old Queen Anne dolls and of course Marie Antoinette

Sometimes you "meet" people

and just think they are amazing! by "meet" i mean just conversing online through business and finding someone with wonderful personality and style. I have met customers and fellow artists that if they were closer i know we would be ladies who lunch or even better friends.

Anyway I wanted to share some pictures from one of those great gals, Cammie Quinn, even her name is fabulous!, formally of The Glitter Punks, new name and new shop type items, she is now, The Vintage Honeycomb      https://www.etsy.com/shop/thevintagehoneycomb 

lots of goodies for dollmakers, folk artists, mixed media, ect....... she also has a stand up spot too and i'll try and get some pictures of that soon to share as she really is a great decorator and so inspiring.

  what a great and inexpensive item to collect and make a great statement in your home

 see how Cammie uses this in her own home

 etsy is a great place to find old transferware pieces, red is such a happy color in any home

 a collection of whisk brushes and other smalls in Cammie's home

 sewing scissors, spools of thread all make for lovely and comforting decor

so check out her shop (or mine giggle) for wonderful things to decorate your home

Back from Folk Fest,lots of pictures to share!

I'm going to load them up and just add a note maybe. I did notice alot of Boston Terrier pieces and tried to take pics of them.

The first day as we pulled in we saw customers already. People are serious about the art in this show
you'll see why i think.

It was so hard to do

but i deleted some old blogs i had been following due to no updates (one for 4 yrs). also removed the old To Dwell In Primitive Thymes blog from my blogs, that was so hard as i really loved that group and thought so highly of alot of the gals there,still do. still keep in contact with a couple here and there.

things change people move on and life goes on, i still kept a couple of old ones hoping one day they will update, feeling like i'm being a jerk for deleting them from my life right now. sigh

I need some fried chicken.
