my new bed!

this is my first real adult furniture purchase. i'm 31...hard to believe eh? i'm lucky to have a mother with great taste who likes to get new furniture about ever 24 days! so all my hand me downs suit me just fine but i really need some extra bedroom storage so here we go...

all you need is a coat of paint...

i FINALLY painted my front door. this was supposed to be done at the end of may with the painting of the flower boxes. it definitely makes my door a focal point but i think i really like it!

After!

turtle shoe update

i went to pick up my turtle shoe tonight, all glazed and ready to go! now i just need to figure out how i want to add 'grass' to it.

turtle shoe

my pottery teachers friend puts together a 'shoe' show...this is going to be my entry...i think i'm going to call it shell toe. this was pre-glaze last night.

super vessel

this was originally intended to be a tea pot but once it was put together it didn't seem very tea pot like to me so i left off the spout and handle and turned it into a super vessel!

pots!

the tray and cup are from my 'earth to annie' workshop. the spoon rest i made in class because i had an ugly white plastic one for so long!

my how your garden grows

this pics are from a week or so ago so everything is even bigger now!

holy veggie

besides some random banana peppers and a lot of spinach this is my first real 'haul' from my garden. it's already way more food than lil' ol' me needs!

birthday presents!

now i can become super educated about pottery! and about jesus's childhood.
