I made holiday moss wreaths a la directions from Martha Stewart. The wreaths are lovely, especially with the addition of soft white ribbon. I can't recommend them enough for dressing up your home!
'Tis the season to be jolly, Fa la la la la, la la la laaaaa!
Having described my desire to create a paper sculpture in a previous posting, I am happy to say that I did it! I made my first paper sculpture and boy, oh boy, do I love it! It was tedious work, but the finished product made it all worthwhile for me. What do you think?
I am away on an adventure where 'my' modern technology = a postcard + stamp. That's right, you won't find me around here, but rather eating pain au chocolat, exchanging 'bonjours!' and soaking in the Provençal way of life in <insert announcement trumpeting> France! Should you need to contact me, please send correspondence via email and I will do my best to promptly respond to your message upon my return in mid October. À bientôt!

In the meantime, might I recommend enjoying Peter Mayle's, A Year in Provence. C'est fantastique!

While out and about on a sunny afternoon in San Francisco, I popped into a little book store and was in awe as I flipped through a book entitled, 'Paper Cutting.'
The book features a variety of talented paper cutting artists. Needless to say, I bought the book, brought it home, immediately began compiling the necessary tools, and after a few more brainstorming sessions am ready to have my own go at this gorgeous form of art.
One artist I was particularly inspired by is Su Blackwell. Below I've gathered some of her book sculptures to share. Ready, set, inspiration!
