More fresh deposits of rain into Los Angeles' winter bank account. Perfect. Today a yellow & blue day to balance out the grey. Not that I need any balance. Balance is for sissies. I prefer careening back and forth from one extreme to the other.
Take garlands for example. When does enough turn into too much? Never, that's when. I gathered together the supplies. Things were bought, borrowed, and stitched.
There's more sewing to do and fabric & lace circles to cut out. My wrists are cold. Here, let me put on my newly knit wrist warmers courtesy of my sister. I send her pictures of things and she knits them for me. Lucky me!
Garlands on left purchased on etsy. (lace circles HERE, crepe paper HERE) Garlands on right stitched by moi once I realized I needed 20 yards, not 2. It takes a lot of yards of garland to drape an entire cottage you know.
>Balance is for sissies. I prefer careening back and forth from one extreme to the other.< oh, a girl after my own heart xoxox p.s. you sister makes the bestest best knit stuff, i LOVE the wrist warmers, you are so lucky to have such a sister with talent and great taste (and of course she is so lucky to have you)l
I love the idea of Moss Cottage hung with garlands (not lower case moss…watch out for that rain as it does cause moss!). Garlands are festive and jaunty and I’m sure the Cat Posse would love to ‘rearrange’ them for you.
YES Jeska, but you don’t have anymore garlands currently listed 🙁
I know exactly where that electric pole intersection is! And that cloud has been there before!
Wasn’t Garland that woman on My Three Sons, who opened a hotel?
I’m not quite sure what the heck this garland business is about.
It’s PURDY, though! Ewe make lotsa purdy thangs. What the hell?!
did you buy this lace garland from my etsy shop? : ) happy to see its gone to a good home!
Lovely! A cottage draped in garlands sounds divine. Any news/photos of your sister on her retreat in that gorgeous locale?
it is always
it is always GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!
love the wristlets
Sister?!?????????????????/

I notice there is a rerun of a Pierce Brosnan James Bond on one of our channels. It is the one that was named for you: “Goldeneye”. Yessiree that is what you do indeedy have. One of them golden eyes (two actually) that sees where and what reg’lar folks miss reg’larly. And i am so glad we are fortunate enough to share in some of those visions.
Your cottage sounds like something onemay discover in the woods, with a basket of goodies and some bears that had recently vacated. The garlands are lace circles, yes? divine.
