all over
Hello again.
Stopped in today to post some recent sources of inspiration.
The new TOAST home catalog is up. There are some great photos to browse.
These great doll clothes that I would wear in real life.
This set of abandoned pod homes found through jean's lovely blog .
Photos of normal food that I don't think were meant to be special, but I like them-

and here
I'll be keeping an eye on Anne's blog this week...
*****************************************
In other news-I think I have a small art show booked in August! Just at a coffee shop-but hey-that's something.
I've been working on some carvings that are very *special* to me. Hope to share soon!
Meet my mom here.
Peace
Art show, how exciting!

Abby!
i got the TOAST catalogue in the mail the other day, after seeing it on your blog. and then they surprised me by sending a house and home issue yesterday! i had no idea! i am in love! so sooo pretty.
also! a few days ago i happened upon a chance opportunity to score a crapload of vintage clothes for free, and she had a ton of long-ish pleated wool skirts. i grabbed way too many than i could possibly give justice to, and the whole time i thought that you would love them. i still have to sort through my treasures, but would you by any chance be interested in some?
i'm moving this week, but i should get to them in the next few days. let me know!
also! i'm sad i missed you at the show!
also! sorry for the novel-length comment!
hope you're well!!

lots of inspiration here- thanks! i'm so excited for your art show and can't wait to see some of your work for it. maybe it'll still be up when i come to portland at the end of august and i can see it in real life! (i love saying "real life") that would be very very cool. hope you're having a good weekend abby.
