Reconstructed Clothing - CreoleCollection

This is from CreoleCollection.etsy.com
I really dig what they have going here - really different and fun. I am big on the creams, cocoa's, ecru's, etc. There's something that just really seems sophisticated yet can have a little bit of funk to it.
Remember Molly Ringwald in "Pretty in Pink"? She was always making over something to suit her freaky attitude; cutting up something, sewing it here or there. The Prom dress. Some sort of pinkish something...so I thought, "what if I did an ongoing series of reconstructed clothing"? I love this sort of thing, and was often compared to Ms. Ringwald by my best friend over the years as I did the same sort of thing. Hand sewn dolly clothes to high school minis. Here is the start of my reconstructed clothing series. Give 'em a vist when you can...I'm sure you won't be empty handed when you leave.

Tuesday...another work day

Another work day - and by that I mean corporate work day. Oh how I dream of being a full time artist- "arting" or creating all day..no set hours...no boss...no phones...I could go on and on. I will say over and over again today: All good things are coming to me now - under grace in perfect ways...

My Yart Sale Items

These are my Etsy Yart Sale items. I may be putting something else on sale too....who can tell

YART SALE ON ETSY JUNE 10-14th

I will be a part of the Yart Sale on Etsy.com as will many others starting this June 10-14th. What is a YART Sale you ask? This is my first time, but my understanding is that it is sort of an online sale with any of the shops that wish to participate that are a part of Etsy. They have different specials/promotions/sale items, etc. YARD + ART = YART - get it? If you do a search under YART - you should be able to get a slew of shops come up to peruse...I'll try to post some interesting shops/items I come by (as well as my own!) prior to that..so check it out and have fun!

Pep Quotes

Here are a few things that were brought to my attention lately when I was a little, shall we say "blue"..if I can remember these when I need to (anxious, fearful, tearful, angry - I think you know the rest) - I think it might just give me a little piece of mind.....

• They're not doing it to me, they're just doing it
• Prosperity is an unlimited abundance
• What occupies your mind will magnify in your life; good or bad is no difference

Maybe this can help someone whenever there is stress over the economy, or irritated at the employee at the DMV that really seems to be rude, or when not so great things are going on in their lives and it's really hard to keep a stiff upper lip. You never know whenever someone is going to give you a small morsel to hold onto...

My girlfriend always says "When your life becomes important to you, you'll live it". Moments - all about the moments you let go by.....
