Including art for sale, there are going to be a few other things listed, including felt! I spent the evening on the floor cutting fall colors and as soon as I get a sample completed, I will list them.
and as I mentioned., I have a giveaway in honor of all of this newness....this doodle (shown below) ..framed!
All you have to do is leave me a comment...about anything. I will announce a winner tomorrow morning!
Happy new day!

I love love love this doodle. Cuter than a bug's ear. Like those felt samples also - beautiful. I should do that with my felt - most of mine are Christmas colors and you inspire me to use them. Thanks.

Love the doodle!!!!

Well I NEED... I mean "want" (rolling eyes) all that felt. I wanna cut it up into circles and hearts and stars and birds and butterflies and stitch them all together to make ornaments and bowl fillers and wall hangings and hankies (ok, not hankies) but some other cool stuff that I'll spend hours looking all over Pinterest for.
Yay Etsy!
PS The link doesn't work for your Etsy shop up there in this post but who cares really? I STILL went there. Duh!

Life IS beautiful! I love the burlap-wrapped canvases up there. Did you do that all by your lonesome or by them that way? Nice and rustic-ish.
