6 supercool things
:: Some of my favorite bloggers/journalers are actually using my painted papers in their artwork! Check out Patty and Nancy and Mary Ann and more Mary Ann.
:: Very happy thrift shopping day
:: It looks like we will not be blasted away by what is being called the worst hurricane to hit land in 2 decades. This is hard, too, because I just wish that damn thing would break up and not hurt anyone or anyone else's homes. Sunday and Monday were pretty scary around here making plans for what we would do if we had to evacuate.
:: The kids are visiting their grandparents in Austin this week. This is a double blessing because we didn't have to worry about the kids and Hurricane Dean at the same time plus, now that we are hopefully out of imminent danger, John and I can enjoy a relaxing week pretending we are child free.
:: Going to two grown up movies in one night.
:: Sitting at a sandwhich shop alone reading the latest issue of Craft: magazine.






I can understand why they're using your papers, they're fabulous.

I'm so glad that your out of the danger zone - we've been worried over here with the coverage of Dean about everybody in its path!
Gorgeous papers!!!

Love your papers and glad you escaped the worst of the storm. Am always curious about the ways other artists handle storage for all their gathered materials. Mine sort of rule the house, never mind the studio....and as I peruse artist blogs I see others who collect cool materials as well....so where do you put them all???
