“And above all,
watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you,
because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places.
Those who don't believe in magic will never find it.”
― Roald Dahl

It used to be this, now it's that





How are you?
I'm feeling great! 
Just now getting ready for some
chamomile tea and hummus toast .
How are we in the middle of the year already??
This year has really gone by faster than I can believe!
I'm not a big fan of Summer..
probably because we have Summer weather
 for about five months out of the year.
Although I do love our monsoons😀

So have you been creating lately?
I bought a couple little ceramic mushrooms at the dollar store 
and since I cannot leave things the way they are,
changed them up a bit & turned them into tiny fairy houses.
Think I'll get a few more and turn them into a village for our mantle.
Originally, they had shiny dark brown and maroon tops.
 

 

There's also a design team project to show you too!

Last week, the weather was actually incredibly mild, cool for us.
So I went for a walk at a trail nearby.
I spotted a little light bulb on the ground and immediately thought,
that could be turned  into a bug, lol
 
 
 
After painting the metal part with copper glitter paint
& attaching a Carnival Cupie head to the end,
I added cardboard wings
 and popped him inside a clear plastic craft ornament that I had embellished 
with metallic ribbon.

 
you can find adorable doll parts at
Lisa Kettell's Etsy 
The ribbon and the craft ornament are from Dollar Tree.

Well, my tea is ready, So I'll leave you with this sunset photo I took a few days ago.


Have a great Sunday!
