And then there is my room...

My rented room is small, but adorably quaint, with just enough room for a lil' creation station. The orange walls are fantastically cheery and my new bed that I just bought is soooooooo comfy. The snowflakes are a little reminder of NH- they were created on the evening before I left NH to come to Asheville, during a random art lesson/wine drinking/snowflake making party. They make me smile and remind me of home. :o) (And thanks, Rox, for the *awesome* snowflake making paper! Resume paper? I think not! Snowflake makin' paper? Yessssss.)

(I Spy: Can you find the Michael Jackson glove and the Kenny Rogers belt buckle?)

Castles in the sand.

I took a quick trip back to New Hampshire (a really quick one, so I am sorry if I didn't call you!) and was able to sort some things out. With the help of my good friend Joyce (aka 'Rox'), I got the walls patched, did some painting, raking and planning in my (soon-to-be-open) shoppe. Thanks, Rox for your help! Butttt...we did take a break to enjoy some of the gorgeous weather that we had and play in the sand for a bit...

The Corona Castle!

"Hey look Snarks...a red cup! Now we can make a sandcastle!"

Check out the Corona Castle Extraordinaire

Some fine features of our castle include: a custom rock wall, fancy shrubbery, a moat and a drawbridge. I'm so excited that I am going to be able to walk out my shoppe door and see this every day this summer!
