Monday.

My little Beaker Vase.

Thought everyone might need some flower power this morning.  I know I do, and these little Black Eyed Susans are just the ticket.  These little flowers are some of the only things that are blooming heartily in this 100+ degree heat.

I found the little beaker vases at an Estate Sale up in Georgetown when I was there...yes ya'll I can't help myself even when on vacation!

Maybe these flowers will inspire me to get organized, because I also found one of these at the same Sale for $7...it was the last day and one of the ONLY things left.  It is an original Dorothee Becker Utensilo Wall Organizer.




The estate sale people were like, I can't believe that stayed so long, etc.   It was super dirty, and has gotten a cleaning, but has yet to start organizing.  Feeling inspired by all of the uses it has been put to.

Feeling the Urge to Organize...yeah, me either:)

Happy Monday!

Playing with Pattern



So a dream of mine is to create a textile line....crazy, huh?  Well, a girl can dream can't she?  It seems I am always looking for a design or colorway that doesn't exist. So, why not create my own?  Sometimes I sit down at the computer and just pop out a design, for fun.  This is my latest doodle creation.  It would be a large scale print.  I Do love a paisley.  I can see this in lots of different colors.  What do you think?  Do I have a future?






In the dog days of summer I dream A LOT!  Gotta run, my kids are tearing up the house.  No more textile design for the day....maybe some textile washing...as in the dreaded Laundry..UGH!
