    I just went for it with this page.playful page

    playful page quoteI didn’t think. I didn’t plan. I didn’t even put my apron on…which is a bummer because now I have orange paint on my pants. Did I mention I’m a messy painter?

    The other day while walking OUT of the bank…which was the last stop of my errands…I discovered that I had a clump of gel medium or maybe mod podge gluing part of my bangs together.

    Nice. So classy. Made me think of the “hair gel” scene from Something about Mary…  Perhaps I need to make a sign to hang on the door…”Look in the mirror before leaving the house.”  As you may have guessed I’m not a terribly vain or high maintenance kind of girl.

    I’m linking up with Art Journal Journey with this post. My journal page fit their theme!  IT was meant to be!

    T Tuesday: sugar rush edition

    April 7, 2015 - By 

    T stands for Tuesday_200Welcome to T stands for Tuesday…grab a cup while we chat.

    sugar rush tea

    We have way too much sugar left over from Easter. Thank goodness I don’t like marshmallows or these would be dangerous sitting all unwrapped begging to be eaten.

    Maybe fueled by sugar or just that spring cleaning and purging mode but I have dug out a box of items that have been squirreled away for far too long.

    sellingBack in the late 90’s I used to sell on eBay. This box was forgotten in the back of our storage room until now.  I also went thru my cookbook collection…some of it just has to go. Recently I’ve started selling a few things on eBay again but the fee structure is pretty steep. But you can’t sell just anything on Etsy.

    painting

    I did get creative this past week as well. This 6×6 canvas makes me quite happy. Its a recycled canvas…meaning I hated the first painting I did so I covered it all up and began anew.

    I’ve also worked in my coffee theme AB again but you’ll have to come back tomorrow if you want to see that.

    I’ve got lots on my list today, more than I’ll ever accomplish.

    What are you doing today?
