On the Table

In between semi-obsessive Craig's List visits looking for a rental house, the art machine (me) chugs along. This week's batch is light and bright, not unlike this sunny Spring day here on the beautiful Oregon coast.
A flurry of fairy necklaces await their final touches-- teeny tiny pupils, lip color, shading, and a twinkle in each eye. They're so adorable in their little wingy piles, I get such a kick out of these little bugs!

After they're all done and shipped off, we're headed inland to look at yet another rental house. It'll be the fourth house we've wanted. Every other house has been rented by the time it takes us to drive there to see it! We missed out on the last one by 4 minutes. Arrgh! After a bit of foot stomping (more on my part than Dylan's) we shrug it off and take comfort in knowing that the perfect place is waiting for us. We're meeting the landlord this evening and they'll decide by next Sunday (after everyone else in the world gets a shot at it) if we get the place. Hope they like us. *crossing my fingers and toes*

Happy Monday, all you beautiful people!

  2. When you get the house, it will be exactly the one you were MEANT to get! I just went through this last year & was soooo frustrated that I kept missing out. Then - just as I was ready to pull my hair out - I found THIS house. Almost immediately I knew it was the house that I was MEANT to live in. Now! BREATHE, work some more on your beautiful creations, & I BET you get your perfect house soon! HUGS!

  4. You both make wonderful dolls and crafts. I wish you luck with finding your house! It's a hard thing to do. Nine years ago, I spent almost one year trying to find a house to purchase. When I saw the last house on my list, I thought "this is it, this is the house I want". A 1930 beautiful art decó house... finally mine! It took long but it was worth it.

  11. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you too, but with all those fairies you've made I don't think you'll need it.
    BTW Art Machine is an understatement, you amaze me with your creative output.
