Day dreaming

Sometimes when the oppressive Minnesota winter starts to get to me, I search craigslist for my "new apartment". Today I went to the south of France...

This one should do.

New Tags for 2009!

In December, Jay (my man-friend) stopped by my studio to see all the new pieces I'd been working on. He picked each one up, admired all the details, appointed stories and personalities to each, and then with utter confusion commented on my makeshift tags. I always loved my old tags: simple, utilitarian, and handmade... but he found them ridiculous.

"With this level of craftsmanship, what are these sharpie drawn scraps?!"

Ok. Ok. Point taken.
So with the new year, I made new tags... Now that the switch has been made, I question why I didn't do this years ago. I love the new tags, simple sweet and far more precise and detailed... just like the work they're affixed to.

Hello!

It's about time, I know! I'm the last person on earth who didn't have a blog... (note use of past tense), but I'm finally catching up with the times.

Hello post number one!

I've been reluctant all this time to start a blog. I spend so much time on the computer working on my website, chatting with you all via email, and frankly looking at blogs... I was concerned I wouldn't keep up with it. I imagined the nagging guilt of posting once a month, but with the little one on the way and lots of small bits of time (spread out in funny bursts) in my future I thought there no better start a project to keep everyone in the loop and to keep myself working!
well, one down....
