Urban Art

Love this urban art installment- check it out!

Which brings to mind a little art project proudly housed in my own neighborhood.

You can read a little about the project and the artists and their work here.

This particular piece, Gold Throne, is just around the corner from our house.

Never hard to give directions to my house any more with this handy and outstanding landmark!

And this one is a couple doors down from me.

Come on down to Phoenix Hill and check out all of the pieces!

Oh, I am so in love with this one!!  I love it enough to overlook the fact that it doesn’t have the normally requisite tub. One tiny flaw is the lack of an oven, but I bet one could be figured in there somehow.  I love it love it love it.  Look here at the rest of it!

Should you find yourself with hours on hand to just peruse the internet, this would be a fun place to hang out for a while!

Not sure which is more beautiful- Alison or her sweet sweater.

Oh my my!  Shelby always has the best Halloween costumes!

This is almost like overload.  So many fun things to make before Christmas, so little time!

Oh, I love these sweet walnut candles!

Katie is such an extraordinary young woman.  This post is hard to read, but framed in hope.

Do yourself a favor….scroll all the way down on this post to see the gnomes.  It will make your day.

Get ready for those cold winter nights.  How could this NOT be good?

Makeover

There was a lot of excitement in Louisville today as the big “reveal” happened and a local family became the recipients of an Extreme Home Makeover.Pretty exciting!

On the other side of town, another makeover was quietly taking place.   Two weeks ago, this was just an unused garage on the grounds of the group home my DH works at.

But with the addition of a window and some new doors,  gallons of fresh paint, and some helpful volunteer hands

this garage is now a pottery studio.  And I mean a really really nice pottery studio.

DH is a potter, so he has been beside himself with happiness as this project has developed.  Now he can’t wait to get those boys in there and start teaching! 

I’m wondering if I will ever see him now!

Head right over to Siggy Spice to check out this fun idea!

A lot of work, but with a cool result!

Love the banner idea, not so sure on those giant flowers…….

I LOVED mail as a kid.  Well, I still do! This looks like such a fun treat for some special little somebody.

Yep.  I’m copying this one.  On the lookout for some big trays before winter weather sets in.  If it ever sets in.

And when that weather sets in, I will bake with no concern about heating the kitchen up.

Little holiday edition of Cake Wrecks.

A beautiful blog, and I would love to have a stash of her Single Woman’s Refrigerator Sauce in my own freezer!

A truly beautiful post, and a reminder of the sweetest of times.

Oh, I’m loving these!  Not sure I would wear one, but I love the way they look!!!

And finally, more things for you pray your children never experiment with….
