Easter Eggs

Happy Sunday
Today, I worked on some Easter eggs. I had a few wooden eggs and a few paper mache. I enjoyed decorating my eggs and thinking about Easters from my past. My Mom always made us Easter eggs. We always dyed them and decorated them and then.....we hunted for them.! We also had candy eggs and easter baskets with Easter grass. As we got older, she always sent us (and still does) a chocolate Easter Bunny.


My mom (MaMa) was like that....every holiday...she would do some kind of craft and decorations. I remember making countless Ghost Trees for Halloween. We used old branches and made "Kleenix" ghosts and hung them from the tree. She made wreaths for Christmas out of some kind of receipt cards. She decorated the house to the max for Christmas. She always helped us with our Valentines boxes for school and all those Valentines! My Mom....she was a good Mom and still is...No wonder I'm so crafty.....that is the environment I grew up in. Love you Mama and Thank You!

I like to reuse and recycle everything people discards.
I see something "new" and creative.
I see beauty.

Hey Mom and Rhea,
Do you remember the fuzzy Easter Bunnies in the back of my mustang full of jelly beans and what happened to them? Heehee

You eggs are EGGCEPTIONAL! Sorry, couldn't help myself. I have fond memories of creating with Mom too, when I was a kid. And now, I try to pass them along to my children. Happy Tuesday!

Paper Flowers and Fabric Flowers

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.

YOu should be able to just have some html and share the dang thing! Anyway, here it is, I would appreciate any views and/or comments. Hugs

Some Work Humor

Cows...A Poem by Richard Armous Cows Do nothing but browse And drowse And now and then moo. That's all they do. Yet even while grazing They aren't lazing. Even while snacking They aren't slacking. If not illustrious Thay are inner industrious, Making milk with all their might. With every bite. Cream too, With every chew. I'd like it fine Could I combine In such measure Business with pleasure . Happy Friday from the Funky Art Queen.
