All our snow is gone! You can just smell SPRING in the air! I've been painting and trying out new mediums - watercolor and colored pencils - lately in my art. It makes for a more free flowing, light look which I love. I still love my acrylics and beeswax mixed media though! I have a few new ones for you!<br />

I've been working on my little hedgehogs and critters for the March wholesale show at the Mpls Mart. If you have a store, come visit me as I'll be there all day every day. My showroom is Sunny's, G446. Sunny is my sales rep, and she has 10 other awesome lines for home décor and gifts. If you're looking for those cool Edison bulbs - we have them! The show runs this Friday through Tuesday. Here's a sneak peek at what I'll be introducing:<br />

It's been a busy time. The boutique season is upon us and I am in quite a few. The Chickadee Boutique - in Shoreview - which is going on now through Sunday, December 7. <a href="http://www.chickadeeboutique.com/">www.chickadeeboutique.com</a> and on facebook. This fantastic boutique is in it's 35th year. It is open Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays, and the FIRST Sunday of each month. I have a lot of original and unusual items here. I'm restocking tomorrow so I'll take pics and post them. I'm also doing a one day show at Servant of Christ Lutheran Church in Champlin this Saturday November 1, from 9:00 - 2:00 in conjunction with their annual Scandinavian Tea.<br />

My computer is right next to a window so I can feel the warm breezes come through as I work and look out over the pond and nature. When my grandchildren were down over Mother's Day, they picked out all my flowers and did some planting for me and it all looks great! <br />
I am getting my fall line ready. I am SO excited, I have a booth at the Mpls Mart temporary wholesale show in August!!!!! I am now repping myself, so Jerry and I will also "go on the road" over the summer also. I will have a ton of new designs, new palette, AND now in FRAMES! From 3.5"x 5" to 11"x14" and in various styles and finishes.<br />
Here are two of them:<br />

I sure did. My daughter and 4 grandchildren came down for the weekend on Friday. Then on Saturday, we celebrated early with my Mom and family with the first cookout of the year. Then my 2 older granddaughters and I did art projects. They made these as a 12x12 entirely on their own which I then scanned and resized into magnets. I think they turned out pretty awesome! <br />

I'm really loving this spring weather! Not too cold, not too hot. It's good to get back out in my gardens - I need to get all the leaves out. I vacuum them up which shreds them up and then use them again as mulch. I am for sure going to put Preen on so I don't have to do so much weeding. This year I am going to get back to planting my everlastings which I dry and sell in bunches. I haven't done that for about 3 years, so this is the year I do it. Artemesia, Sweet Annie, larkspur, nigella, poppies, giant hyssop, I also grow lots of herbs both for cooking and dried bunches for crafts - sage, thyme, lambs ears, oregano, cilantro. I never have any luck with rosemary. I'm just itchin' to get to the local garden center! I grow a lot of the unusual things from seed. I'll post pics of my gardens for sure!</div>

Fun fun time visiting them all. They live up north so I don't get to see them as often as I want. Love them SO much! <br />
<br />
I'm getting ready for my big shows this Spring - Majestic Oaks and Candleberry Boutiques and the Canterbury Spring Show! Super excited about Canterbury, March 28,29, 30 - my first time there and it is a juried show. I'll know my Booth # soon, and I'll post more info soon. The first show of the season is Majestic Oaks - March 12-23. Candleberry follows in April. More info later. Working on new art and will be selling large originals. These 3 are 16x16. (I'll make them into smaller prints)<br />

I cannot wait for Spring! Starting to plan my gardens too. I have 6 blueberry bushes that haven't produced so one job is to transplant them. I'll be doing lots of transplanting and dividing this year.

They are 10 and 13 - a teenager now! so hard to believe. These are 12"x12" canvases and I put their birthstone rhinestones in the center of the daisies. They are of their favorite bible verses, I can't wait for them to open their presents! I'm adding these 2 designs along with other ones to my spring line which I'll debut in March.<br />
