Collecting

I'm a collector. One of my favorite thnigs to collect are vintage scarves. They really are works of art. I have a large collection of 'tourist' scarves from all over the world. Hawaii, Italy, Paris, Cuba....too many to mention. Here are a few of my favorites!

Brrrrrr...

It is -32 degrees this morning! Good grief...will this never end? A friend called from Mexico this morning and told me it was a little chilly and she was wearing a sweater....lol.....Anyway, have been working on a couple more collages and hopefully will have them finished soon. Hard to fit the time in...but I have to as this is what keeps me sane! Here's another of my Flower photo's. I took this one a couple of years ago in Mexico.

Back to the 'Real' World

Well, I have to head back to work today. Having 3 days off in a row has been fantastic. At least it will make for a short work week! Here is the collage I finished yesterday...

I'm working on another collage and have lots of other ideas whirling around. More snow here...sigh....here's another one of my flower photographs to cheer us up!

I have 3 days off in a row....what a treat! Lots of time to work on my projects and make some order in my life! I dream of visiting Paris and that was the inspiration for this collage. It's for sale in my Etsy Shop!

Back to the Work World

Well, I had 2 great days off and now it's back to the work world.  I get up quite early in the mornings to give myself some time to work on my projects before I have to head out to work. Found some great fabric bits and pieces yesterday at a thrift shop. I've washed everything up and now I have some new inspiration! I also found a fabulous book 'My Book of Flowers' by Princess Grace of Monaco. Like a lot of people I am feeling that the winter has been very L O N G and I am LONGING for summer! Here is a picture I took last year of an African Daisy....hope it makes you smile!
