Happy First Day of Summer!

I wish for a great summer: long evenings at the beach, or some place watching the sunset, outside as much as possible and barefoot, playing with the kids, not too much work, up early, and lots of play, play, play!! Light and easy and that feeling of freedom all summer long like when we were kids.

the t-shirt that says it all...

A friend of mine once asked how I was doing wearing all my hats.
I often think about this and have been
wanting to make a piece about it.
I recently stumbled onto this t-shirt
and it does list many of the roles.
A great site check it out and maybe you need this t-shirt too!

I've always had a thing for hands. I seem to collect them.

These are the newest in the store. You can attach them to the wall.

Great find

It's amazing how perfect things are in nature.
Do they design it, or just build it?
Is it intuitive or just for function?
So many things to learn from.

Three Tier Fleur

This is my new favorite piece.
You've probably seen me wearing it lately.
