Friday Finds - wine festival

since tomorrow we are going to the Vintage Virginia Wine Festival...

being outside all day in the sun requires a cute dress to wear...like this one by Ureshii



and how cool will you feel sipping wine in these vintage sunglasses from Vintmaillot?



finishing off the outfit is this delicate little necklace, with wine colored rhodolite garnet gems by Small & Mighty




now grab your wine glass holder and let's get tasting!

The Fiction Project - complete

I know I had promised (upon multiple occasions) that I would share with you the in progress works of my Fiction Project submission...and I failed, big time!  I worked so hard on what I was going to say, that when it came down to putting the actual words on paper with the illustrations, and finishing them...well let's just say I worked some long days and my hand is just finally recovering from all the writing...

so, since it's about 40 or so pages, I'm going to share with you in little chunks, the finished product :)

enjoy!  (you can click on the image to see it full sized)

It's June!

how is it already June!?  I can't believe summer is just around the corner...quite honestly, it's felt like the dead of summer here in Baltimore for a few weeks now...somehow we went from 75 degree days straight into the 90's, and I for one am not happy!  I love the spring, and we got completely jipped out of it this year! 

so in the spirit of calling it an early summer...go search on Etsy for BESTUSA2011 and you can find some awesome items for sale, that are Fourth of July inspired!



lots of red, white and blue goodness!!
