Our dentist always sends you home with a little care package when you have a crown or some serious dental work done....to me a cleaning is serious. I haven't had the greatest experiences with dentists. Today it was my hubby bringing home the care package. There is a can of soup two kinds of crackers and a gift card with a couple dollars for a milkshake at UDF . I think it is very nice and

2011-07-23T19:04:00.001-05:00

Funny thing I took a class called Portraits and Papers with Jane Desosier to learn how to paint people portraits and collage. I have a people portrait in progress, sort of, I am so afraid I will mess up the face, so it just sets around faceless. Feeling more secure with animal painting I did Harley. Janes class is awesome, it's just me! http://grittyjane2011.blogspot.com/

We had a tree fall on our house, it put a big hole in the roof some of the trusses have splits and the ceiling in the upstairs bedroom is cracked. But this is nothing compaired to others who have lost loved ones and entire homes. My heart goes out to all. This can be easily fixed a broken heart cannot.

Here is another Happy Lil Mermaid named Briney and she has a real sea shell for a seat. I should have been raised by the ocean instead of a creek in the middle of nowhere Ohio, just kidding I loved the place where I grew up. I also a made a sea horse which I find to be fascinating creatures.

I think this is my favorite Mermaid so far, saw the fabric and knew I had to use it for one.Her eyes are lavender colored. The piece of coral on her head I picked up on the beach in Ponce Puerto Rico, at that time I wasn't even making Mermaids.Her jewelry is all made of shells and beads.I don't know what my next project will be, I do know my studio needs a little cleaning.Making Mermaids is a

Mimi the Clown Dog, I made her for the challenge in the http://clothdolls.ning.com/ group, Mimi is a bit far out there. But she was fun to make. As I was painting her face I remembered the Drew Carey Show and Mimi. What a look that sister had.

Pastel Annie

2011-01-30T20:00:00.002-06:00

This doll was made for a Challenge at Cloth Doll Artistry http://clothdolls.ning.com/ She was to be made with pastel colors. I used vintage fabrics and buttons. I don't know if she is a winner or not, doesn't really matter, what matters is this challenge has got me back to making dolls again and doing what I love. I was lost in my studio since my fathers passing, I just couldn't get motivated.

Barns

2010-04-23T00:50:00.003-05:00

One of my favorite things is the old barns. I love the smell of the grainery, the hay and straw. How the wood floors are worn smooth.I so wish that more barns were preserved for the future instead of being left to fall down. I know the cost would be the biggest factor in restoration, but there is so much history, the families that built them and the trials and tribulations of farm life. It is

It has been awhile since I last posted. Dad is still not doing well. I make trips from my home to his to visit him in the nursing home. Since he is not able to take care of his cat named Baby, we moved her in with us. She is still adjusting but doing well. Baby is a small cat with a bobbed tail, she has a great purr! I can only hope and pray that Baby can move back home with dad someday.

There has been so many times in my life I wanted to have a brother or sister, and maybe now more than ever. My dad has been moved to a nursing home for rehab. It is going to be a long hard road ahead for him. It was dark and snowy as I walked to the car having a long day of sitting at the hospital then the nursing home and feeling exhausted from the stress. I began thinking of that brother or

Hello Prim Friends, I will be busy the next few weeks with my dad. He fractured his hip and had surgery Sat. I closed my Etsy shop and the Kindred Sisters Shop until I get back. This is his 3rd hip replacement. He has been through so much. But he is a stubborn old crow, we were playing cards tonite at the hospital! Then he had to watch the bachelor, one of his favorite shows. He is a big tease
