YELLOW!

After seeing other blogs encouraged to do the color Yellow for the month of April by Angela on Cottage Magpie, I thought "why not"? Who cares if it's the very last day of the month? Seems that's kinda the way I do things. So I toured around my house and found some yellow to share with y'all. Of course, leading the way was Big Bird. This cute chair was Kitty's when she was a toddler and now is used by a new generation:

Now here we have two very lazy puppies, but on my loveseat in the kitchen which has yellow in it. Also a utensil holder thingey which I painted:

Can you tell my kitchen is yellow? Actually it's yellow & cobalt blue. I love the bright colors. We all need to be cheered up while cooking, right? I painted these plates too. Kitty and I went thru a period where we painted pottery alot, so my house is full of this stuff.

I've got lots more to share, but wanted to get this posted before too late. I'll be ba-a-a-ck!

Luv, Nerm

HOPE SPRINGS ETERNAL

TGIF to you all. I am so excited! Which isn't necessarily anything new! My beloved middle daughter recently called me a chihuahua because I was jumping all over the place. Please picture this arthritic grandmother jumping anywhere!

Anyway, I picked up a magazine today (so what else is new, they ask). It is a Special issue of that great idea mag called, "Cloth, Paper, Scissors". Now you have seen pictures of my craft/sewing room (at least two walls of it) and have heard me moan and groan about my struggle to organize it. Well, this magazine has page after page of crafter/artist's studios. Lots of great ideas to help poor little me. I tried to download a picture, but haven't quite figured that out yet, so just click on this link and see it for yourself. Cloth Paper Scissors Studio Issue,

I hope you have a wonderful weekend and we'll be back in touch with our organized results.
Hopefully yours, Nerm
