Inspiración del amor

I am working on a project for The Eclectic Artists Team I am a member of. It's a group on Etsy.com that I recently joined and they are having a Valentine themed contest and I am having a bit of an issue coming up with my own interpretation of "love". In fact, I am in love.  I just don't know how to put that same love into an art form.  I started a felt/embroidery project that has morphed into an anatomical heart (cliche, I know) that, in a way, represents the fact that our love is a very "real life" kind of relationship. We are a very normal couple and I like it that way. Not dramatic or crazy.  However, it was a quickfire start and we have plenty of heat! Anywho...my inspiration for the rest of my project has been Dia De Los Muertos and Mexico in general.












All of the colors! So pretty! Now I want to go make big hair flowers!

Big Love and a Big Crush!

At this very moment I am watching the second episode of the new season of Big Love. Not only do I love this show's story line and it's plot twists, but I also have a huge crush on Bill Paxton.   Yep, he is the best looking polygamist ever.




Now I need an inspiration post of sorts. I love Anthropologie...I do. I don't love the prices though. So sometimes I try to make a more homemade and inexpensive version for myself.



























Everything here is on www.anthropologie.com

Music To Craft To

 spent a good part of my day searching for new music for my crafting sessions. I was pretty successful finding new stuff, but I also dug up some gems that I had in my library but forgot about. It's like when you clean out your closets or car and find all these things you forgot you had...like Christmas for my ears!









One Is The Loneliest Number...

So what does one write in their first blog entry? Should it be a one sided conversation or more like a personal summery?

Forget all that, I am going to introduce myself via multimedia.  Maybe later today I'll actually post something substantial.
