"Delight yourself..."

 

"The Bluebird"

The bluebird carries the sky on his back.

Vintage fragment of lace and fabric scraps,

strands of yarn and cedar strips

come together in a way that brings

completeness.

Two new creations ready for the shop.

But I do find it a bit difficult to part with them 

for they bring a smile to my soul. 

After all they are a part of me.

What shop?

Mardi Gras mask makeovers

 My guy is a techno geek so I

made his to have the

appearance of a circuit board. 

(he wanted to know why his 

has no feathers oops...

plug the glue gun back in) 

 

Mine took on a life of it's own as it went together. I knew I wanted the feel of my artwork and of course some leopard touches, so as I dug around in boxes and drawers in my studio for just the right pieces, it became a mask with two personalities.

 From the right one can see my 

wild shabby side but

if you came up on my left...

it's all about feathers. An ostrich plume or two and several peacocks feathers on a cluster of darker blue short ones.

So as we head off to the masked ball we are sure of one thing...we'll not be running into another couple with the same headdress.

embellishments    1.00

finished master pieces    priceless

off to make merry

What does one do with those blocks?

Michele Beschen 

is the crafty chick at

borganic

 and these were on her blog

These would be cute on a 

coffee table for a little

whims fun.

Just sayin'

Never Let Go

 'Never Let Go'

This is my latest fabric collage artwork

embellished with jeans and blue ticking fabric

 blue bird feather and crochet pieces

 Scrabble letters and lace

beads on rusty wire and yarn heart

Made for a friend's son who recently

took for himself a bride...

a good thing.

A Good Thing

 Velvet pumpkins...

a good thing.

 Chair covers...

a very good thing.

 

 A place to reflect on blessings...

a necessary thing.

 

 I pray for those in need of peace.

For those in need of a place.

 

I would encourage you to

enjoy those seated around the

THANKSGIVING TABLE

be they family or friends...

it's a good thing.

~Candy~    

Busiest place in town

 As families gather

 around the kitchen for this

Thanksgiving and Christmas season,

 I pray for renewal of spirit,

 renewal of relationships,

 renewal of all that makes 

a family the

cornerstone of a society.

God Bless us all!

Autumn Glow

 There's just somthing

calming about

the glow of a candle

 when there is a crisp wind

blowing outside

Wishing all a wonderful

weekend

~Candy~

all-a-flutter

 Tickled pink after a wonderful rain

and seems I'm not the only one.

She's a bit shy
Miss Tiger Swallowtail,

didn't want to give me 

a good shot.

Hope your Monday is off to a flying start!

Cherish Every Moment

 Finishing up on some 

altered fabric collages

artful hands of the past,
find their way into

my art that reminds...

cherish every moment
