Craftiness is happening at our house. Painting unbleached canvas for bags and clutches soon to be in the shop. Little signs of love. Big girl and I both like playing with scissors, and leaves.

Wonderful skulls made from glue and compressed spices by Helen Altman. I bet the gallery these were displayed in smelled wonderful.

Nails
My "manicure". Such as it is. I always wreck them before they've dried
properly, or wear the paint off the tips within a day with all my toil.
But I saw this at doorsixteen.
{My new favorite blog}. So I gave it a try. I love it! It took a few
seconds to do (very much a plus when there is a limpet-like needy
toddler hanging around. No offense baby-cakes, I love you but you are
making me a bit insane.) It looks very graphic and draws attention to
the tips of my fingernails which is one of the effects I like with a
french manicure. I dabbed on a bit of gold later in the day, at the
base. Gold and black is yummy. Next time I'll topcoat it so it will wear
better, but I think it will be easy to just touch up with black
tonight. It does not suffer through lack of perfection. It just looks
more arty. Unlike most manicures which just look like crap once they
start to wear off. So doable and stylishly sanity-saving!Now my fingers reassure me I AM an artist dammit! Not just the resident breastfeeder/housekeeper/child wrangler, etc.Also they remind me of little bitty Hitler/Chaplin style mustaches which amuses me.
Thanks, Anna!
Thanks, Anna!
Livingroom progress
Living room wall. Shaping up. Dug out the black and white cat from college drawing class. Mandragora hanging out on the chair in a loving embrace with my vase glove creature. I like how the speaker looks like a little creature. I see creatures everywhere.

Dining room wallpaper new/vintage. Not sure I like it now. Too yellowy? I think I can still like it maybe with more black/grey, and clutter eliminated. There's that vase again. Poppy pods are such amazing little sculptures.
