Sweetness, Beauty and Love! :-)

Happy New Year 2014!

"Follow your bliss and the universe will open doors

where there were only walls". Joseph Campbell

Venture down some different paths this year!

Look for beauty in all things!

Wake up earlier and enjoy a sunrise or two!

Pamper yourself this year!

Don't forget to stop and smell the flowers!

May 2014 bring health, love and light to all!

Christmas is here!

The fresh greenery decorates the house, twinkling lights are aglow,

and tiny Reindeer leave footprints in the snow!

May the joy of the season be jolly and bright,

May the glow of the hearth bring heartfelt delight.

The beauty of Winter is here and now,

 with crunching snow, icy chills, and frost laden bows.

A chorus of Polar Bears sing Silent Night,

May your Christmas bring Love, Joy, and Light!

Wishing you and your families a very Merry Christmas! :-)

Thanksgiving is a wonderful time to gather with family and friends and share 

in the gratitude and abundance of the beauty that life brings to us in it's many ways.

May we be thankful, may we be grateful, may we Cherish this time together.

Blessings to All!

Koo Koo Kachoo and Straight on Till Christmas!

My goodness, I know I've been out of commission for a while, but

two months is a bit too much I can tell you!

 I'm ready to put all of that illness hooey behind me now, 

and despite missing all but a few days of the Halloween season, 

I'll just keep moving forward and straight on till Christmas! :-)

Speaking of Halloween....

Since it is nearly upon us, and I know you'll be out 

Trick or Treating on the day itself,

I shall wish one and all a most delightful

All Hallows Eve!.. albeit a smidgen early.

May you all find the houses that have the full sized candy bars!

The garden leaves are starting to turn and with that I'm reminded

of all the memories of seasons past. Those of fond family and friends who

live with us still, or have past on and visit in spirit. 

They're felt in yesterdays thoughts and the hugs of today's laughter.

What is it about the the Autumnal air that kindles the heart's 

fervent glow all the more in remembrance of loved ones?

So today I posted several miniature paintings in my shop.

Many of these are not much bigger than a postage stamp.

And last but not least....

Koo Koo Kachoo...... I am the Walrus.

Everyone needs a little bit of a Walrus in their life now and then! ;-)

Christmas here I come!

Be watching for some sculpted camels and deer!

...... Do you feel it?

Do you sense it?....

There is magic in the air!

Berry Goodness, almost Autumn and Ghoultide Gathering!

I wanted to share the delicious get well gift from from my Dad and Carole!

A beautiful arrangement from Edible Arrangements!

Doesn't it look lucious!

Yummy!!!!

Besides the lovely fresh fruit arrangement in a vase, there was a

separate box on the side with Ooolala ...

chocolate dipped Strawberries, bananas and apples!

Talk about a feast for the pallette and the eyes! Everything was so sweet and delicious!!

Thank you SOOO much for my special treat! I absolutely loved it!! :-)

Can you believe that Autumn is only a few days away?!

This little pumpkin can't believe it either! What What?!

I've been out of commission for several weeks with pneumonia (bummer)

 but am slowly getting 

back into the swing of things, and am working on having a 

Halloween piece ready for the Sept Ehag Emporium on the 30th, 

so stay tuned and cross your fingers!

Oh! And wish I could be there but,

 if you happen to be in Chelsea, Michigan on Sept 28th, be sure

and stop in to the Ghoultide Gathering, which is a fabulous show with many of my

artist friends, the top Halloween Folk Artists in the country! 

Also, on the West Coast is the

Halloween and Vine Show, in Petaluma, CA on the same day!

WhooEeee! Amazing artists abound! :-)

None of the new fangled horror stuff, but lots of 

old fashioned and light hearted Halloween goodness in the tradition of days gone by! Fun!

Welcome to my Mad Hatter's Tea Party and Giveaway!

It's time, it's time!

For the 6th annual Mad HattersTea Party!

continue in the fun!

Come with me and you will see a treasure of delight,

Rabbits wise and starry skies reflect the glowing sight.

Chartreuse green and pink of pinks, and leaves of vibrant hue;

Stone laid paths, an oaken tree, and moss do lend a clue,

Can it be, I surely see a table laid for me?

Pull up a chair, sit down right there,

You're invited to my tea!

Tea Cake and sweets, delightful treats, laid out in such a way,

Brocade of green, birds seldom seen, and antique acorn crochet;

Shall I pour out, a dripping spout, it's such a lovely day,

All my favorites, tea just right. I wonder if there's souffle?

Golden flowers smiling thusly, as I sip the golden brew;

How delightful, how delovely, served from the pot of blue.

What is this, a stolen kiss?

From an unexpected guest?

Every hairs in place, from tail to face

he want's to look his best!

Why this little chap, has seized the day

and wants to be a giveaway! :-)

Along with him, a special book, to remind you of this day.

So enjoy your tea, the flowers too, 

and I'll lay out the protocol for you.

Simply leave a comment with your name attached, 

and follow my blog 

and Facebook. unmatched.

Then when the BLOG followers reach 300 and stay, 

then little bunny and book will be on their way!

No matter, whether short or tall, 

I'll draw one name and ship the lucky winner their haul!

So tell your friends, come one come all,

It's a Possible Impossibilities Giveaway...

and we're having a ball!

New Ehag Emporium Piece!

It's that time again and here is my piece for the

April Ehag Emporium!

I thought I'd go a bit more vintage this time and created a

springy Jack O lantern bobble head mounted on a

hand cut wooden star.

Eyegore would make a wonderful addition to

any Halloween collection!

Purchase HERE.  :-)

Mortimer Morbidly, Esq.

For tonight's Ehag Emporium I'm introducing

"Mortimer Morbidly, Esq."

He's the proprietor of the Morbidly Melancholy Mortuary of Greymore Gulch.

In social gatherings he's often fond of joking...

"People are simply dying to see me".

Mortimer is available HERE in my Etsy Shop.

Thank you so much for looking, and for your continued support!

Wishing everyone a Wonderful Easter! :-)

This little bunny, along with several others will be making their debut 

in my Etsy Shop this evening.

They are assorted sizes and this particular fellow is approximately 6 in high.

He has German Glass eyes, luscious long ears, a loving heart charm 

and an adorable expression. Each one has a sweet personality of their own 

and they'll be ready for adoption tonight!

Oh... also tonight is the Ehag Emporium so be watching for my 

March piece....

"Mortimer Morbidly, Esq."

Guess Who?

Look who I found hiding under the

Milkweed plant in the garden!

Isn't she pretty? :-)

This lovely caterpillar will soon build a

crysallis and slowly transform into....

A Monarch Butterfly! :-)

Here's more info if you'd like to create a butterfly

garden in your own backyard! :-)

New Veggie Man available!...

For the Ehag Emporium this month I've created something

 a bit different than my usual "unusual" fair.

This is a very pouty and stingy "Veggie man in the moon" named

"Mine!"

He's very well behaved until... you try

to take his little Jack O Lantern away from him and then, well,

lets just say it's a right royal veggie conniption! 

 Available  HERE 

I've also been meaning to share this beautiful Amaryllis bloom!

This bulb was a gift from my Dad (Thank YOU!) when he came to visit

at Christmas and the end of January it sent up two 

large stalks and these amazing red blossoms!

There were four in total!

This was the first blooming, and two weeks ago

there was a second flush, and now a third is 

on it's way! Amazing! I thought Orchids gave you alot of 

bloom for your buck, but these are right up there

on the enduring and intensely stunning level as well!

For those that have asked, 

I'm posting the bunnies the end of the week. :-)

Happy Valentines Day!

Sending Valentine Wishes to Everyone

and a charming little Love ditty too! :-)

(you can turn my regular music off at the top left to listen)

Enjoy!

Fantom Frazzle for the Ehag Emporium!

How in the world did it become February already and 

where did January go?! Something tells me this is going to be 

another one of those years that zooms by at the speed of lightning.

At any rate, this is my first blog post of the year so 

Happy Belated New Year Everyone! lol  

So this little sculpture "Fantom Frazzle" is my creation 

for the Ehag Emporium for January 2013.

The bunnies are a work in progress,

and are coming along nicely.

Bunny Pendants/Ornaments!

Lots of fun new things coming up!
