Here's a little peek at my newly designed jewelry/business cards that I'm sending out to be printed this week.
Last week a crazy little cockatiel flew (more like clumsily stumbled into a tree) into our neighbors yard. It seemed a bit defenseless because it's wings had been clipped. They didn't exactly know what to do with him. That's when our phone rang, and I took in another homeless bird. The current bird count here is 6. Please refrain from calling me the "crazy bird lady", it's not like I have 6 cats. Now that's a situation that requires immediate institutionalizing. I'm really just a girl who's in dire need of a garden aviary, because our little bungalow is now beginning to sound something like the Amazon.
My new little birdy is a happy little chap, who squeals everytime I enter the room. He's got the coolest feather pompadour, which tends to make me think of Elvis but I'm still having trouble coming up with a name for him. If you can think of something clever for him....Please suggest something, so I can quit calling him "Bubba". I'll make sure to send out some Liquid Sky goodies to the best reply.
I'm back into the swing of making cigar box purses again, my interest was sparked again this weekend by some beautiful handmade papers I found at (my new local art Mecca) "Sterling Art". I'm still heavily on the "print gocco" binge too. I have a growing collection of stacks made up of all of the different screened papers I've been making. I'm planning on sorting them into mixed paper packs to sell sometime soon. They're great for wrapping small things like handmade soap, jewelry boxes, or using for whatever great ideas you conjure up.

It's what I like to refer to as "Africa Hot" today here in Southern California, so I'm spending the day indoors playing with my gocco silkscreens. I've been on a bit of a gocco binge lately, screening decorative papers for wrapping and stationary. It's terribly addictive.
This afternoon I came upon the most hilarious weblog called Threadbared (via Sariane). Read here first to get the scoop behind what it's all about. Then I recommend checking out"A Threadbared Epic: "Barbie & Ken - Living In A Crocheted Paradise."...You really haven't lived until you've seen Ken's crocheted workout gym. |
