hangin in there
Still on Vacation.
Time to sit
and think...
what is important.
Relationships are important.
I am happy
being with
my guy.
cooking together
sleeping together
playing cards
talking,
not talking
Nice
very
Nice.
It's not to say
I don't miss work...
hangin with the girls,
painting,
creating,
seein my Sam,
family.
But sometimes
The person you choose
to spend the rest of your life with,
they need to know
You are there for them.
You think about them.
They are important.
"WE"
are important.

What goes around+++ comes around
The beauty of blog-land,
is that there are so many
wonderful
and
generous
people
behind those words and pictures
that we share
about our lives,
interest
and loves
of our lives.

Here is more from my studio.
I like
old
worn
...papers...
...chip-ee white paint...
...buttons...
...pencils...
...aqua...
Little things that have been held by loving hands
and cherished
put away
forgotten
then
found.
If you had a blank piece of paper in front of you...
what would you say?
who would you say it to?
Here is a quote I found the other day.
great
minds discuss ideas.
average
minds discuss events.
small
minds discuss people."

little treasures
These are a couple of inspiration boards
that sit above my studio desk.
Messy
sorry.
I am still in awe of the blogging world.
I find so many great images and ideas.
It is like a big treasure hunt.
Tastes are so diversified and individual.
I am amazed at what people come up with.
I just wish there was more time in the day...
It is easy to get caught up in the
hunt...
hunt...
and for those of us who
PROCRASTINATE
yikes...
stressful
...oh well...
it's
it's
still
fun.
GuessI just won't fret over it.

House pictures
I took these pictures the other day.
My snowy beach house.
(which could be yours...if you so choose.)
It is pretty even if it is
all
of
28 degrees.
This was taken from the deck at bunnies.
It was so cool.
I didn't leave the building the
whole week.
I worked 16 hour days.
So I could go on vacation.
By the time your ready to leave on vacation
Wow...you really need it.
And speaking of vacation
This was our sunset the second night.
The first night we were in bed before
the sun had a chance to set.
Trying to catch up on some
much needed zzzzz's.
Oh.
My guy and I are in Maui.
It is heaven.

Sisters....lucky for those who have them
This is my sister and I.
We are 14 months apart.
I am the eldest.
I remember this dress.
My gram made it.
It was pale lavender
organza...
We didn't have much money
so when we got something new
it was a rare treat.
I loved this dress. I remember
I wouldn't take it off, when I went
to bed. I loved new shoes too.
Except those saddle shoes that
came later on.
I was a patent leather girl
at this young age.
The hair...
always had issues.
Design inspiration
My product line was well received
in New York.
We are working on design
logo and really deciding
on look and feel.
The inspiration for my art are
my Mom and aunt.
These are all the pictures I have of them.
Growing up on a farm in Washington
In the 40's.
So I think the line will be called
Janny + Nanny
A vintage inspired line
for the child that lives
in all of us.
Familiar and comfortable
creation that bring back
memories of a happy
childhood.
