Starry Night, Artist, Me

Okay, yes I have to give Van Gogh credit, of course, but I did this pastel version of "Starry Night" last night.  We had 1 hour to create our masterpiece and this was mine. (Don't laugh ;) I'm going to matte and frame it. This quick pick really does not make the colors burst, and twinkle as pastels have that *magic* touch.

Simply Organizing

"To what to my wondering eyes did appear, but some little tin pails with numbers so darn close to my house number that I had to keep searching in the shelves and.... YAHTZEE!!" P.S. Pay no attention to the ugly brown computer hutch, or the starfish dust covering the hutch so nicely.  The hutch will be leaving.  But!  It works for now until I find a CHEAP way to either make it white, or find a nice white table/desk that is super dee-duper cheap! ;)  Enjoy your Friday~
