I always seem to forget ~

And just what do I forget, you ask???
How wonderful I feel when I make something!!!
I have a new "creed", "mantra" or purpose this spring ~
make something beautiful....every. single. day!!!
So here is my current offering and new artwork.....

Remember my recent giveaway?
I just had to try to recreate it
as I loved making it and
how it turned out ~

And you can find it in my shoppe too!!!

Be sure to double click my photos to see more detail ~




Another piece I finished is a petite nature assemblage
housed inside of an old wooden box!
It's tiny but oh-so-detailed....
and it's in the shoppe too!








Yes, I do laundry (when folks are moaning :)
Yes, I try to cook my family a tasty dinner every evening.
And yes, I do try to keep this old place clean.
But girls,
making these treasures
TRULY makes me SMILE!!!!

Have a beautiful Wednesday my sweet friends,
hugs and love,
Dawn

Well, they make me smile, too, Dawn! I love both of them! The book cover in your nest piece gives it the perfect touch on top of the sheet music. The little box is a perfect tabletop piece ~ love both the inside and outside.

Anyone can do the laundry or keep the place clean, but only you can create these lovely treasures. I'm sure you create wonderful things in the kitchen so I won't go so far as to say that "anyone" can do that. Have a great day, Dawn!

Hi Dawn! Lovely creations, as always! I haven't made anything for a long time, thanks to having my youngest 2 years ago and losing my craft space. But I'm determined to find a place and time to do so soon because I really do miss that great feeling.

Hello Beautiful Dawn!

I love all the new offerings in the shop. Your work is so amazing.

I do have a quick business question for you. I'm going to my first big Antique Show in June. What is the most effective way to display handmade cards and tags in a booth? I would love to hear your ideas since you are such a pro at all this.

love to you today-

Oh Dawn, I love them! The canvas as I told you before is perfect & so you. That teeny cabinet/box of curiosities is FAB! I love the herbarium nature-ness of it all! Good job girl.

PS I'll bet they are gone already.
