Marquees ~ Twinkling Again

 

A little over a year ago,

 I made a hard decision.

Due to lack of space, I stopped creating marquee signs.

 

But new design concepts kept popping up

and continual requests from you

had me realize that I am not done.

 

When something persistently knocks on your heart

you have to answer it, right ?

 

So today, I am moving into a new studio space

so I can return to my inner twinkle !

 

1st up ?  A giant champagne bottle

Toilet Paper Art & Einstein

 

Can you see what this white and lovely art is made from ?

 

 

 

 

Look a little closer

 

 

Yes, that's right, it's just plain and lowly toilet paper !

Made by turkish artist Sakir Gökcebag

 

 

A contrast that leaves me inspired

to challenge myself

to re evaluate and elevate

how I see ordinary things

In other words ... find and create your OWN beauty

 

 

Albert Einstein, a big proponent of creative play says it best ~

 

“I am enough of an artist to draw freely upon my imagination.

Imagination is more important than knowledge.

Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world" 

 

 

Wishing you all an extra~ordinary day full of discovery

Was going through past photos of my decoupaged antiqued mirror pieces ~ still love this one !

Blue Velvet Crush

What is it with blue velvet that is so beguiling ?

 

It is showing up everywhere this season

and I admit I have a bit of a crush.

 

 Moody and mysterious ... it sets the stage so perfectly for October
 

Will you be adding a little

to your home or wardrobe this Fall ?

Would you do velvet nails ?

 if s, here is where to learn how

 

And if velvet had a sound ... I believe it would be this song

 

Wishing you a weekend ensconced in good things

Won't you join me backstage at the McQueen Fall 2012 show ?

 

Lots of gorgeous

feathery, flouncy, furry and slightly futuristic frockery

happening in this short backstage film made by Sean Frank.

Enjoy !

Happy Fall,
