I did meals on wheels today and saw something like this in someones little yard. It just impressed me so...I could not wait to get some pretty rocks and do the same in my yard. I bought some little rocks at Michaels today and brought them home. I had to water down the spot where I wanted my little Ichthus and then I drew the design with a stick. Then I placed the rocks in the design and embellished with some glass marbles. I pounded them in the ground a little with a rubber mallot. This is right at our front porch. I told my husband I should change it every week to give our few guests and the postman some entertainment. It was a short and fun activity for me this evening.
Well, I'm kind of in a creative funk again. I hate it when this happens! I'm so glad that next weekend I am going to Fredricksberg, TX again to the trade days. I know it will inspire me in all kinds of directions. Meanwhile, while I am trying to get my groove back........I have been making a lot of little short term projects in the paper department. I made this little posey pin from faux vintage post/letters etc papers from the scrapbooking department. I actually wore it yesterday on my jacket. Then I spotted this book on Fabric Flowers by Elizabeth Helene Searle at the fabric store and I had to get it. I used her instructions to make this first fabric flower. I want to try several of her other flowers instructions. Now, what will I do with them? Who knows? Does it really matter if I am enjoying myself? Probably everyone will get fabric or paper flowers for Christmas! Heehee Have a great day.

I can't believe in all this time I've "known" you thru Flickr that I've never visited your blog!
I LOVE what you wrote about Teresa and Frida in your last post.
I'm bookmarking your blog so I can continue to visit... blogs can be so much more conversational than the short little blurbs we write on Flickr. I look forward to visiting often!
I'm a certified card-carrying conservative, cannot help it if I stand by my man. It's worked for me a lot of year (hehe). Besides, it's a GOOD little tune. xoxo
