365/making: November 2010
http://365making.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 23, 2010. Stuff I want to make. This one is made from Rosemary. And another one from paper. And I loved this card wreath using clothes pins and what looks like a giant embroidery hoop. I'm going to attempt to make one of the Rosemary wreaths. I want to use things I have and I don't want to purchase anything to make my wreath. I have Rosemary. All of our newspaper subscriptions are now online, so I can't make a paper wreath from newspaper, but it is. Monday, November 22, 2010. Oh, my sta...

365/making: 30 Days of gratitude--Day 30
http://365making.blogspot.com/2011/01/30-days-of-gratitude-day-30.html
Friday, January 7, 2011. 30 Days of gratitude- Day 30. Today, I'm grateful that I live in Austin. Sure the traffic sucks, city government is often kind of a joke, and property taxes are awful. That said, it's a heavenly green oasis in sea of scary, Baptist, gun-toting, right-wing, creationist-myth-believing Texas. This state is red. Morgan on hike and bike trail at Lady Bird Lake. Me in front of the state capitol. As it turns out, I did have a "Day 16." I just somehow skipped over it. Doh! Oh, my stars a...

Monday, October 25, 2010. Patty Falconer- Painter of Pups and more. Pat specializes in paintings of animals, and mainly dogs. As you can see, her portraits capture so much of the spirit and nature of the animal she's painting. Love this one- part of a triptych. These are the "Sistine Chapel" dogs. One of my favorites. Pat did some amazing opera-themed art some years ago. Here's a tiny bit of that work:. Patty, surrounded by books and art. My pictures don't do justice to her home, either! If you've ever w...

365/making: May 2010
http://365making.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Saturday, May 29, 2010. Two posts in one day! This is where I've been hanging out lately. It's the best place to read. There's been a lot happening in the garden. We've just about reached the end of the yummy lettuce. Much of it's now too bitter. Lettuce just doesn't like temperatures above 90 degrees. I'm with you on that, lettuce. Our tomatoes are doing well. We're already harvesting the cherry tomatoes and it looks like it won't be long before the big boys are ready. Good for us that we love chard!

365/making: June 2010
http://365making.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 29, 2010. Well dear reader(s), we're not moving as fast as I thought we would on the hen house, but my husband/builder likes to build things to last. That's a good thing. The boards on the ground are recycled plastic/sawdust lumber that won't rot like wood. It's built away from the fence so we can walk all the way around it and also so that we can put hardware cloth along the ground to keep the coons and possums out. We do plan to let the chickens out in the yard when we're home and can wat...

Tuesday, February 23, 2010. Now this may not look like much, but these are things I've been wanting: an old retractable clothes line ($1.50); an old heating pad that doesn't automatically cut off after an hour ($1.50); a set of nice German water colors ( $2.00! My first silk screen print. I can't wait to get some thrift store shirts and print stuff I've always wanted to see on t-shirts! I enjoyed making the stencil for this way more than I thought I would. Hmm. Now what class will I take next? Here's the...
