One of my journal pages.  Working in a journal helps me confront creativity blocks.  

Freedom to scribble, glue, and paint whatever I feel at the moment.

I highly recommend art journaling!

What I have been looking at lately:

These reimagined vintage globes are super cool!

Eraser Stamp Carving

Loving these interiors....

Wonderful art of Paz Lopez

Great new online magazine, Pure Green Living

Wishing you a week filled with beauty and wonder!

Happy Thanksgiving

Wishing you a day filled with good food, friends, and family and many reasons to be thankful!

Black Friday/Small Business Saturday

Hello!

Floribelle will be having two special days this coming weekend.
Black Friday and Small Business Saturday.  We will be offering 25% off
everything but consignment items.  There are so many great gift ideas and
holiday decorations for sale.  I hope you find time to stop in and visit!
We will be open 9am - 5pm on Friday, November 26 and
11am - 5pm on Saturday, November 27.

I had a table at the Yuma Civic Center Craft Bazaar this past Saturday.
Thank you to everyone who came by!  This was my first craft sale and
I wasn't sure what to expect.  There was a crowd in the morning, but the
afternoon was a little slow.  There were so many different events happening
in Yuma yesterday!  I am happy with the response to my handmade items and
I did sell quite a few things, which is great!  I will be bringing the remaining
items to Floribelle and they will be included in the sales on Friday and Saturday.

I hope the rest of your weekend is good to you!  :)

November in Arizona

I complain all summer about the heat, but when winter comes

 I wouldn't want to be anywhere else!

In Arizona, you can spend the day at the Phoenix Zoo in November without a jacket.

Feed giraffes, ride a camel, hang out with monkeys, take a walk on a desert trail.

I can't remember what winter is really like, and I don't think I want to!

Wishing you a week filled with warm thoughts!

Getting Ready

This year I am getting ready for the holidays early.  

The season goes by so quickly.  

If I start earlier this year I will have

 more time to enjoy all the goodness this time of year brings!

I am going to begin setting up displays at Floribelle.

If you feel excited about the holiday season, too, stop by and get inspired!

Here are a couple of links to get you motivated:

I hope your day is filled with good ideas!
