oh my! a journaling post?!?
Yep, still doodling, and journaling and cutting and pasting, just not as much since I've been up to other shenanigans. Here are some pages from my current journal. I'm pretty much only grabbing these two these days. My hard cover journals have been left neglected, while these soft-cover, easy...
Andrew, you did an amazing job! See what wonderful things happen when you are brave enough to try!?!

Nurturing a young artist
Conversation last night between my eleven year old and me... "I can't draw. I'm horrrrrrible, Mom. I'm not an artist and I never will be. Can't you just draw it for me?" "No. You can draw, you just haven't really ever tried. Want to try?" "It won't work. I know it." (silence) "Okay, I'll tryyyyy...
Love the fall decorating! I needed a kick in the pants to finish mine.
As for the books.... If "The Host" is the very first Stephenie Meyer book you have ever tried to read, no wonder you don't care for her. It is totally UNLIKE the Twilight books. Put it away & don't read it until after you have read Twilight. I am a huge fan of that series. I had a very difficult time getting into "The Host." I was a great story once I got into it, but the writing style in it is totally different from the rest of her books.

playing with fabric
Having fun making some new stitched bits since the last set was well received (thank you), and I find myself addicted to the fun of pairing up fabrics and trims and other bits. I just keep starting more instead of continuing on individual pieces. The hand stitching and embellishi...
They went QUICK!!! I love your journals & was so excited to have a chance to buy one. They must have been snatched up quickly.

a few "jump start journals"
I finally finished some journals for my etsy shop. The bottom four are stitched together and waiting to be painted on, written on, or otherwise embellished by you. The four vintage ledgers have all been "jump started" by me for those of you that are intimidated by the blank page or overwhelmed...

To know me is to know that in my world of pie, there is really only one pie — the golden lady, the duchess, the dowager queen — please allow me to introduce, once again: The Sour Cream Apple Pie. [Pauses for roar of applause.] This pie is the greatest. It's buttery, it's cinnamon-y, it's crust...

Oh, what a lovely thing for your grandfather to give you those. They look wonderful in the jar as you have them.
I can definitely see some of them used on your wonderful jewelry. Or perhaps as a piece of wall art... held together with jeweler's wire, perhaps?
No matter what you do with them, it will be special because of where they came from.
