'Tis the Season





















It's been a very busy holiday season. I've been filling orders into the wee hours of the night and have wrapped and sent gifts for people all over the world this year for Christmas. I haven't posted as often as I'd like lately, but I check in on the blog regularly. Please keep checking in with me. I so enjoy seeing you here.

Peace.

The Lamp Shade



















I love lamps. I love lampshades. I love searching for that perfect combo that will make the room, or a corner of the room perfect. The warm light brightens everything and warms the heart. It does mine, anyway.

The bottom shade is made with Burlap, which of course I love.

Seasons Greetings All,

Entering Bourne, MA




The Town of Bourne is the gateway to Cape Cod. You have to pass through the town to get over the Cape Cod Canal and to anywhere else on the Cape. The Cape Cod canal bisects the community, with both the Bourne and the Sagamore Bridges, as well as the Buzzards Bay Railroad Bridge, being the only means to cross the Canal, unless you're traveling by boat of course. 



The Canal is world renowned for it's sport fishing, scenic vistas, relaxing bike rides and walking routes. And for carrying vessels of all sizes, flying the flags of all nations. The Ships and Tug Boats that move along the Canal are a sight to see. 




Cheers to Bourne! One of my favorite places.

Burlap Stripe

















I'm working with Burlap and Hemp at the moment.
I think they're fun textiles to work with. I like the
imperfections and the open weave. It's a tiny
bit unpredictable working with these workhorse
fabrics. No two pieces will ever be exactly alike.

I'm making more stripe pillows to be uploaded soon.
Check back with me and see what you think.

Cheers,

This is a medium sized, tan (or whatever color you choose)
Jute/Burlap Tote Bag, lined with cotton. Two interior pockets
will carry your phone, keys and glasses - and a big overall
interior size has room enough to carry all of your goodies.
It works well for the farmers market too.

Frost's Early Version of Design
















A dented spider like a snow drop white
On a white Heal-all, holding up a moth
Like a white piece of lifeless satin cloth -
Saw ever curious eye so strange a sight? -
Portent in little, assorted death and blight
Like the ingredients of a witches' broth? -
The beady spider, the flower like a froth,
And the moth carried like a paper kite.

What had that flower to do with being white,
The blue prunella every child's delight.
What brought the kindred spider to that height?
(Make we no thesis of the miller's plight.)
What but design of darkness and of night?
Design, design! Do I use the word aright?

-Robert Frost

Today's color is WHITE.
