it all started out like this..
Duck cloth, white, gray, and black paint...
then some sewing, ripping and lots of LOVE words...
some musical notes, stencils and free form writing...
then, more LOVE words...
Viola'...some machine and hand sewing...
one of my work tables coordinate with my pillows now,
and I LOVE THAT!
here are a couple under the windows...
on the bench I repainted and we brought in for extra seating...
still haven't stopped with grays...
I squealed out loud when I found this insect wing while swimming
the other day...it was just asking to be placed on this piece of work
that isn't finished yet. such a perfect fit!
this was the sun going down through the smoke...
this is small idea as to how much we can't see through the smoke...
Fires and drought in California again this summer are wreaking havoc...
so as the sun came up through the smoke yesterday...we left town for
awhile.
we are in no danger whatsoever, and praying for rain.
we are feeling quite GRATEFUL to have our home and families intact.
XOXO
Good morning dear, dear friend! You always capture my heart, but today, WOW! I love grays and smoky colors, and that bench....OH MY. This is perfect for the coming months of waiting, creating in the chill and dreaming of colorful days to come yet again.
ReplyDeleteWishing you another creative day! Off to work I go! Anita
I guess there was a bit of good that came out of the smoke fires in Ca. They appeared in a unique and absolutely lovely form on your pillows. I love that look. The blacks and greys and healing love words just add to the ambiance. Also, they are dynamite with your grey bench for seating. Is there a way to wash the pillows or must they be hand washed?
ReplyDeleteAWESOME!
