Corners of my Home

...itty bitty corners :D
My entire house isn't this spare or clean, just saying so the public isn't mislead.
The bedside table with the books is mine. That ceramic head is a homemade piece of found art. The books were about a dime each. The wooden X I found at the Dollar store. Last one. Fate:D That frame I found at a junk shop for 50 cents. It's awaiting a monster portrait. Someday.

Jane meets color

New monsts :)
Lotta is my colorful one, the fabrics were just sitting there and so.... I love Lotta's "Oh no oh crap jeepers jinkies yikes" look :D
Albino Zombie is simple but that red....wow. For me anyway.

New Franken-Creature Kids

These are my first monsters since forever! I am so happy to be sewing again :)
I will be posting these up on Etsy today.
I also got my published plush back from Stampington Magazine and I will be adding some of the plush to my Etsy shop!

In here life is beautiful, the girls are beautiful, even the orchestra is beautiful...

Yipee, I have 3 new Monsts! This isn't even one....not even a finished doll, lol....I was stuffing her and then noticed this glorious white pouf of polyfil and overdid it....so this is what I need to figure out as a finished look.... loving the Lucille Ball 40's lips...maybe I should keep her as is.

Our Wonderful World

A few weeks ago I got a bunch of these OUR WONDERFUL WORLD books (kinda like encyclopedias) from a free box from a leftover yard sale. Just this evening I looked inside and they are filled with all of these great images! I am going to make JunkerJane tags from them.
When I was down in Southern Oregon I was looking through some of my old boxes that are still in my mother in law's garage and I discovered about 15 old old encyclopedias (the year 1895!!!)that I bought for 10 bucks at that big Jacksonville, Oregon town yard sale in which the whole town is one big yard sale! That was ages ago, friends.....I feel guilty cutting them up, so I will just save them for one day when I actually have a library(a room devoted to books....only....dreaming??)

Hmm

Small towns don't seem to have posted flyers of anything. ANYTHING. It's not fun. So now that I am back from my small town vacation I am loving the posted flyers all over again. These are not the best but it was all I could get yesterday :)
And I am a fan of public bathroom art/graffiti so I am always trying to snap photos of it :D
I have vague ideas of what I am going to start sewing next. It feels cooler today so maybe I'll start new dolls today.

Portland Today....or Kiddie Pools Save Lives...or shite, my Flickr Pro account expired and I can't upload anymore till I pay out more money and I ...

Another hot day but we all hopped in the car and went for a loooong drive in the air condtioned ride to an air conditioned coffee house. Yeah. The coffee house was the Concordia on Alberta which I never been, but it was cool. i had this iced black tea with a different flavor...but for the life of me I can't remember what it was!! I gave the camera to the kids because they usually take interesting shots that I don't ever think of, but they thought it was reallllly funny to take pics of the hubs and my...um...rears. very funny kids. No way am I posting pics, blurry or not, of my a....
On the way we spotted two peeps with their feet inna pool in front of a book/something shop. Smart.
Then at a Dead End Street somebody had some sense of humor :D

I love Portland.
