.blue and green and other things

Ok. So I have had quite a few lovely people ask me a bit about myself so I am going to spew a few things into this post. Good?

I make things.  Started out doing illustrations(showing some here) and went more into paper. I like desktop items. I love watercolor. Many products have evolved from there, some you may have seen places, some maybe not. I tend to gravitate towards simple....whether that is with material or ideas. The things I design most seem to have a clean and simple theme running through them.  My newest venture, leather books, combine the same elements of mixing the very useful with unexpected materials and sizes.  I have been thrilled with the response, and adore making them.

I write a zillion lists.  I  make journals, but I don't journal. Is that a bad admission?  I list.  I jot. I draw. I scribble. I stick things in between pages. I cherish my entries. I bring them everywhere(even around the house). But I do not write about my day in complete sentences.  I know what I am referring to on the pages.  Might not make sense to anyone else, but it's not really for anyone else, right?

Here is about three percent of me described by many things I adore.  Iced tea, cupcakes, beer, light, travel, books in an insane and insatiable way, football, flip flops, crazy high boots, hand written notes, hats, hardwood floors, high ceilings, peonies, the beach, blue jeans, little dresses, shells, heart shaped rocks and foremost on my list, my family.  I cannot really remember what mattered much before my kids. 

Thanks for asking. This blog thing is enlightening and inspiring.  And I am so glad you are here.

Nuff said.

P.S. And no, that is not me with the blanket in the first picture, silly.  I have dark hair.  But remember we are discussing blue and green......
