Animated Hobbit

I watched it again a few days ago...so fun!

Sunshine in a Glass

It has been so rainy and grey here in Seattle! Drinking fresh squeezed oj is like drinking sunshine in a glass. Come on sunshine!!!!

Rhododendron Glen

I love the Arboretum, any time of year :)

Heartbreaking.

Seeing the footage of all the pelicans, herons, egrets and other wildlife affected by the BP Oil spill/under water crude oil leak just breaks my heart. More photos like this one on Boston.com

Poppy Patrol.

I am obsessed with these lovelies. I am on the lookout for poppies in all colors. I especially love the pink and purple ones. These pink ones pictured here are grow around the corner from where I live in my neighbor's front yard. I first drove by them, parked my car, went inside, got the camera, and walked back to take pics of them. So beautiful! Beauty is everywhere!

In. Love.

My friend Brooke and I were out and about, looking at art at the Capitol Hill Artwalk, and we came across this giant beauty in an alleyway along side a building on 11th. I think it was in front of someone's front door. I don't even know what this flower is , but I cannot stop thinking about it! I am just totally in love with it, and would love to be surrounded in hundreds of them right now :)

At the Etsy Rain Craft Show

Thanks Soozcat for taking this pic of my table at the Etsy Rain craft show! In this pic I am all drugged up on cold medicine, and having a blast :)

So Bright Outside!

Another one of my felted pins. Someone said this one looks like a fried egg. I don't think so.

Cute Pin

This brooch started as an experiment, but now I cannot stop wearing it! It is a small, easy way to add something fun to your look. Stay tuned for more of these in several colors!

Fantasy Flowers are Back!

When I first started creating felted flowers, I named them fantasy flowers. As time went on, I decided to drop the Fantasy description. How silly of me! Now I have returned to the original process I used to make flowers, and I have put the fantasy back into my flowers. I have desired to create flowers that evoke an organic sense of movement, energy and magic :) I think the saying goes "first thought, best thought," and in this case I do agree!

New Style Hand Felted Blooms

New style hand felted flowers will be available on Saturday at the Etsy Rain Spring Craft Show! I love how organic these flowers are, and I have chosen all bright, vibrant colors. YAY!
