Postage

I have been going through my archives this past month as part of my spring cleanse.
 I found this worn envelope I saved,
that I loved for it's colorful stamps, postage marks and beautiful handwriting.

 I ordered fantastic calendars from Flora Douville that traveled in this envelope,
  pleasing the eyes of many who caught a glimpse.

Glass Stones on Wood

I'm not the only one who loves
 the look and feel of these
 small glass stones on

pastel / painted wood pieces.

We also used crayon shavings 

for additional  texture and color.

Nicey.

Portfolios

We're wrapping up the Early Spring Session this week,

which means the sorting and sifting of artwork in many mediums.

And LOTS of it!

Here, the Tuesday 5-9's class paintings, 

sitting upon portfolios on the gallery floor

 (mid stream sorting).

Today..

 

 paint your world.

live Purely

My cousin Laura  tucked this into my shopping bag while we were at Wholefoods and BOY am I glad she did.  This is the best granola I have ever tasted.  The Original cereal is loaded with all the good stuff (amaranth, quinoa, chia seeds, coconut oil) 

free of  refined sugars, gluten, and it's vegan.

Their mission ..".. to recreate the most delicious baked goods using the highest-quality natural and organic ingredients, loaded with health benefits and free of the bad stuff."

And that exactly what they do. Nibble for yourself. Love it.

Tazo Tea

    okay.. I think I saw this idea some place a while back,
 however..I did drink all these cups of tea this past winter,

 and have been stashing the pouches with the intent of sewing them up.

I'm sending it off to my favorite boy in Portland. 

Happy Spring!
