Busy-ness.

Hello my dears,

Here is another little sketch. Pink and green have begun to appeal to me this year. Who knew? I must admit that for many many years, the fantastic-ness of this combination was lost on me. However, in the last few months, I have become totally enamored with it! You will probably see more thistle and moss, fuchsia and hunter, and other combinations of the pink + green duo in weeks to come.

I will be listing the original in the shoppe tomorrow morning.

Happy weekend-ing!

Darlings,

I think I have finally kicked this cold's booty to the curb! Hoorah. So much has happened since I last had the strength and attention span to share with you all: Thanksgiving yumminess, more sales in the shoppe, interviews for another day job, and on and on! The important thing (to me, at least) is that I am able to paint again. Joy! Here is a new piece that I have been dying to share with you.

Do you think this would look divine with Lamp on stack of logs and

Mid-century Bubble? I do! I think I will have some prints made.

Oh, by the by, have you begun thinking about Christmas at all? I have and of course I'm trying in earnest to get myself organized. Remember the HANDMADE PLEDGE? Well, I thought it would be helpful for any readers who are new to buying handmade for me to put together a little buyer's guide of sorts, with links to other savvy handmade buyer's guides like Modish and Trunkt along with my Etsy favorites. Look for that tomorrow, won't you?

Wishing you all a loverly evening. I do believe I am off to sit on my meditation cushion before walking our dog to meet the husby after work.

Toodle-loo!

Dears, we are not leaving town today after all! Good! I was hoping to share this new piece with you, and am thrilled that I don't have to wait until Friday or Saturday. I painted this little number yesterday afternoon after much rushing around and experimenting with the holiday cards, bigger prints of some of the paintings in my shoppe, and my accounting system. The lamp in this painting was just what I needed. I hope you enjoy it! I am planning to make prints for the shoppe. I think it would look lovely next to Lamp on stack of logs.

I saw this chair in this month's volume of DWELL. Lovely-ness.
