As for me I've finished a Mermaid and a Fairy art dolls.
Spring Cleaning my work space and getting out Materials that I've forgotten about. Time to drop off at the Goodwill!

I got to see Obama speak here in Eugene. I thought it was amazing!! I really believe he is the Hope we've been waiting for. I went this last weekend to the Obama HQ and did some canvasing. I really want him to win.

On Sunday my good friend and Neighbor Star went and dug up some Raspberries Plants! I'm so excited, I love raspberries!

Don't forget we have two boys, so we were super busy!! Adan has to go back to school tomorrow from his Spring Break. It seams like it was so fast. Wow tomorrow is April 1st! My mothers Birthday! Better call her in the Morning.

Happy Spring!

Some people say its today some say its sometime between now and the 23rd of March. I say whenever you fell it in the air.

Ostara is a great time. Exactly 12 hours of light and 12 hours of darkness. Its a balance.

Time of new beginnings. Flowers are blooming and leaves are popping out. Pick some flowers and put them on your table. Take a moment or two. Light a candle and let the energy of new life burst into bloom with in you. May it be with new ideas, thoughts for you and your future. For the world around you too.

Blessed be

Melisa

Trees


Trees! Amazings Creatures! Without them we wouldn't be here. Think about it.
Our Breath.
A place for birds to sing and live.
Animals homes.
A home, your chair, Your kids toy plane, Your picture frame that holds art.
Fruit!
Wonderful Trees! There is so many different kind, Shape, Sizes.
Even if I'm allergic to some of there blooms. I love them all. There isn't one that I don't like.
In Eugene Most of the trees look like this, with green Moss, and ferns growing on top of the branches. Is so inspiring. I was on a walk in my neighborhood and saw this lovely tree.
My favorite Book about Trees is "The Giving Tree" by Shel Silverstein. If you haven't read it please do!
Check out the wonderful "TREEs" on Etsy! I've got one in my Store too.
Blessings

Things~n~Stuff

Hello and Welcome to ThingsinStuff Blogger Spot!
Were not sure how this works.
But hey lets try it out!
Brandon does all the wood working, or should I say Wood art for kids. He's very into making airplanes at the present moment. He makes Kids toys and furniture. Brandon and I believe in leaving little impact as possible on mama Earth. All the wood that is used is salvaged. Brandon does costum orders. If you have any questions just ask!
Brandon is my Husband and best friend. Were are so lucky to have each other! Were a silly two some. We have two amazingly cool boys that take most of our time. What little is left we get crafty! (In more ways than one.) -tee hee
As for my self, I do may things too. I love creating faces out of clay and making fairy's and lil people who magically fill my world everyday. Even if you can't see the ones around you in your daily life they are there. If you still can't see them you may purchase one of mine to remind you. Can't you wait to have one of these magical spirits in your home??
I sell my Fairy wings and Fairy Dress up wear for girls and woman of all ages at the amazing Sweat Potato Pie here in Eugene, Oregon!
I'm exploring Wool at the present. I needle felt, and I love it! I make clothing. I also make Monsters, Rabbits, frogs! Which you can check out a sample of all or our work on Etsy!
