My weekend

Today is a much more relaxing day compared to my busy weekend. However I do have my daily chores that all stay home ladies have.
Sunday I taught a class on how to make a perpertual matchbox calendar at Mystic Paper. Kim and Jennifer are going to be receiving the new Graphic 45 Christmas paper so I will be teaching my Christmas Matchbox Advent Calendar.
For more details check Mystic Paper.
Have a wonderful day and please feel free to leave a comment

Calendar Kits

Hello again! Today is a Saturday filled with the screams of "happy" (?) children in my home. I am usually playing good cop and mean cop throughout the day! I am sure that all of those mothers of 5 and 6 year old children can appreciate what I am saying.

Anyway it has been suggested to me that I sell calendar kits for my Matchbox perpetual calendar. The kit will come with all of the fun goodies and easy directions to follow. I will offer many different themes. If you are interested in seeing my work, I have a class on Sunday June 28th at Mystic Paper. You can visit there website at:
http://www.mysticpaper.com/ for more details.

Well off I go I hear some screaming!!

Today is the day!

Today is the day that I will be turned loose to play with my blog. Mike Putman did a really nice job with creating it. I just love my banner. Don't you?

I am looking forward to my Friday. Friday is the day that I "punch out" from my 24 hour job called "stay home mommy". My husband and I each take a day to ourselves. He loves to go out on his boat and I love to dig into a new art project.

I am getting prepared for my upcoming event which is called
Art Unraveled
http://artunraveled.com/. Please check out the link for all the fun details. This will be my third year participating. So I am looking forward to meeting new people and see all of the great artwork out there.

Fairy Fun

After two years of being asked if I have a blog I finally decided that it was time to get one. I found the best person that I totally trust to create the first impression of me and the
"Artsy Fartsy Fairy" blog is Mike Putman. Mike is so very talented and has a really good eye along with suggestions to help you build a blog that best describes your passions and who you are.

Anyway this blog thing is so new to me. I am not really sure what to say about it except for how excited I am to finally make the time to have fun with it!
