I was just over at Desire to Inspire and was so happy to see the headboard concept of my dreams! Although I would leave out the canopy thingy. The shape is even similar…the colors and patterns remind me of the pile of tapestries I still have from my deadhead days and the rest of the bed is white…perfection!

Well I was over there I also saw a peony photo that I thought I would share as well…go figure, peonies caught my eye!

I have an odd fascination with Alligators, don’t get me wrong, they terrify me…but they are still pretty cool. Did you see Lake Placid when Betty White (who is great in that flick) raised the Crocodiles (close enough) to ginormous proportions? Check it out if you haven’t…

As I have been having so much fun with etsy recently, I’ll give another go of it:






1. Makes Me Wonder Necklace by Manic Trout
2. Garrett Gator by marleyungaro
3. Small Florida Alligator by SugarSnapshots
4. Looker by amberalexander
5. Do Not Feed Alligator by futurowoman

Later Gator…(oh come no, how could I not!)

Christmas in June

I discovered this weekend that even in June when people shop at a craft fair they are buying gifts for the holidays…so as I already had Santa on my mind I figured I might as well go with it and share these. Ellen Von Unwerth was one of the first photographers who really captured my attention and I have been following her work for years now. There is always an element of sass in her photos that I love.

If you are going to the Rhinebeck Craft Fair this week end, I will be there! Not as Manic Trout though so don’t get all excited…I am assisting an amazing woodworking artist and will be in building A at the end of the middle section. Hope to see you there!

Hi Mom,
So guess what, I just ate the last of my twizzlers! See how good I was, they lasted a month! I think I should be rewarded with another tub *wink*
Much Love,
Sierra
