Greeting Cards

I am ready to get things cranking for the Spring and Summer season....Here are some popular card designs.....The Mermaid Tea Party....

A pretty Shoe....I put a shrinky dink of some sort on the space near the toe.....a bow, something fun.....

And a flower with either a bird singing or a butterfly singing....et VOILA! Until next time...xo Here's a link!

Easter eggs

I love Easter time...the beginning of Spring....flowers...pastel colors...and I like decorating eggs...
These eggs are from a few years ago...I saw them on a Martha Stewart cover....She has the technique here.

These are my painted goose eggs.... I have them displayed in a terrarium that my Mother gave me.....

Today I will take pics and put them in the Etsy shop.....xo!

Diffused light

In the bedroom....and a link... (from Camille...thank you!)Happy Sunday!xo

Newness

Here are the new canisters that I (finally) painted all dandy and on display.....

And here is another Dandy....my son, Paul, in his natural disheveled state.....

I am visiting "Them"today in Providence...I haven't seen Paul since Thanksgiving even though Providence is only 1 and 1/4 hours from Hyannis....but coming from Nantucket, one has to take a plane (about 20 min) or a boat (2 and 1/4 hours OR 1 hour by fast ferry) so that extends the travel time...Anyway, I am bringing Paul his Christmas present....

It's a drawing done in pen and ink and framed in a gawdy frame....I think he'll love it....

Notice how I got the hair right.....

He just got some dapper shoes to go with his tweed pants...Merry Christmas, Paul!

Valentine Swap

I entered a Valentine's Day Swap through A Thrify Mrs. My swap buddy, Sara from Mexico is getting this little package of Valentine's treats.....

A wee heart box, a sailor's valentine, and a shrinky- dink bracelet! Feliz dia de los enamorados, Sara! xoxo

Yearning for spring

Here is Tasha Tudor in her garden.....Love it!

Here's Jeffrey in His garden.....

last spring....

Here's what I got Jeffrey for valentine's day.....I got it HERE!

Here'a a link....Enjoy the day!

New lovelies in the shop...

How about a happy head to keep your hat in shape...............

A big Nantucket Lighthouse basket tray, to use or to hang on the wall or both.........

This is unfinished...a big flowerpot....big enough for use as a trash bin......

a one of a kind condiment tray .......

And a framed print from my 2010 calendar....

So come on down!!!!Here's a nice link found via charmingwall

I heart hearts

I forgot where I found these last two images because it was so long ago....sorry about that.

Here's another! xoxoxo
