I was asked by the Reverend Sue Browning at the Unitarian Universalist Church in Easton, Maryland to spruce up the sanctuary with the idea of celebrating the new Fall season. After a quick perusal of Pinterest, I gathered some images together and made a design plan. Ish. I decided to create circle “chandeliers” which would…
Once upon a time, in 2010, Downtown Denton, Maryland needed a sprucing up for their upcoming Spring Gala Event to be held there in May out on the street. My friend Danielle was asked by the Arts Council lady Marina, to do something with the mostly empty windows in the store fronts on our Main…
As I was decorating for Fiona’s party, I remembered we had left over helium from her home-coming gifts a year ago. I also had some cream balloons in my stash. Having just bought a copper sharpie, I immediately thought how fun it would be to decorate the balloons with a pattern. I’ve been obsessed with Eamon’s…
I have finished my charity chair project. I put three coats of polyurethane on the chair, dragged her inside for a photo shoot in Fiona’s room, and then delivered her to the Talbot Humane Society today. She’ll be named “Oh, Promise Me !”, as that was the song by Clement Scott on old sheet music…
I started to think how neat it would be to put together a post of all the pictures of Eamon’s Halloween costumes though his life. I madly dug through every suitcase and picture file to find these. I’m missing a few but if I do find them, they can be added. This is my “Halloween…

I needed to go visit my dear friend Pama last week and let her hold my Fiona. I was never more impressed than when she held Eamon as a baby and lolled him and rocked him like the pro that she is. She is an Easton shop owner. And the newest Moonvine that I walked…
As I do, I was randomly poking at my fiddle phone while killing time with baby having a snack, when Pinterest popped up with this page. O M G !!! There are other paper items equally as cool on this page but this is clearly a page devoted to a collection of paper dress pictures….
When we first moved to or house in the boonies, I discovered the Home and Garden Network on my new cable box/best friend. We were renovating the house on a “budget”, as in cheaply as possible without making any real progress that money would require. Channel 43 became my bestest friend outside of General Hospital…
You may or may not know, I had a surprise baby shower a little while back. You may or may not know that I love to do paper crafting. And so I set myself to the task of hand creating thank you cards for the all the lovely people who bestowed gifts upon me and…
