The beautiful California Coast!

Baby Doll Cradle Made New

Creating something new from something old 

is such fun!

We found this pine baby doll cradle at a resale shop.

My  daughter #1 paints some

lovely flowers on each end.

Mama Holli makes a mattress,

pillow and cover.

Just like new and ready for Gabby Goo

to tuck her baby dolls inside for nite nite!

Hopefully she won't try to put baby brother

in it instead!

She might try!

Summer

Flowers Please Stay!

School has started

The air has a different scent

The nights are cooler

I am not quite ready to surrender Summer

not ready to surrender the warm air

not ready to surrender the afternoon rain

not ready to surrender the flowers

oh how I Love my flowers

The Palette

What a beautiful vintage palette

from

 The Graphics Fairy! 

A

Palette

Is

A

Work

of

ART

all

by 

itself

I love to stare at my daughter's palette

while she works.

It tells a story.

It has a clear beginning and end.

The paint dances and swirls

on the hard surface

aiding to create the masterpiece.

Looking at her palette helps me

to peek into her mind.

To see the story unfold

even before

the 

paint

reaches the canvas.
