farm chick finds

this new art journey has sent my eye in new directions...new colors...things that shine & twinkle

it feels girlie...and it tickles me that i am drawn to it

ribbons and bits...letters in print and in form

great finds...at the farm chick show ...and we didn't arrive until sunday ...it was a last minute trip - love when that happens. i appreciate a good display - merchandising degree - and the vendors at this show do a wonderful job - artfully done and inspiring.

the search is on for this and that to use in my fall art and soul classes ...the gathering is so fun. the yummy bracelet was made by stephanie lee, i can't get enough of her work & i can't spill the beans yet...but hope to have some news to share soon... doesn't that make you nuts...tell me now is how i always feel....real soon i promise. rhinestones...me? i guess so...

show and tell sunday - flea market finds

thanks to heidi for hosting

standing along the fence waiting for the gate to open ....

and i spot this wonderful collage ...you know how you have a chat with yourself that you will go only $this high ...so for 45 mins i debated with myself what "this" was going to be .

..there were many things to ooh and ahh over while we waited.

it hangs year round just as i found it ...its a christmas message from a grandmother to her family. the gal who purchased the wonderful house that had the sale told me she had found it in the attic when they remodeled the house. i can't imagine leaving it behind.
"so I hope that as you sit round the open fire your mother will have time to help you read this letter"
i consider it my best find ever! now i'm off to see your treasures!
