Glue + Paper

I am up to my elbows in glue and paper.

Dripping off me like raindrops…

Sometimes you have to go play in the garden.

With the dogs.

Throw Trix at your sister like an overgrown kid.

They were so colorful I couldn't help myself.

Harass Mister Lovee bunches.

Before you can come back to the place where you are happiest.

Well, maybe not happiest, but pretty close to happiest.

It's in the top 3 of the list.

With glue and glitter on the hands, making them look puckered and funny.

Sometimes, you just need to go have some fun.

While your imagination grows.

Like spring flowers.

And then, there is chicken wire and paper and glue a plenty.

With German glass glitter at the ready.

A fresh and fine golden batch.

Glue days 7

With trinkets and treasures galore.

Glue days 3

Choosing a few to hang here and there and there and here.

Plunk goes that glue off my elbow.

I feel a wave of something good coming.

By the by…

The other night I feel asleep before I could watch Anna Karenina…

And proceeded to have the most fluttering fairy beautiful dream to the most glorious tune.

Then I realized it was 3 a.m. and the tune was the menu song playing over and over to Anna Karenina.

I have not been able to get over that tune, it's so wonderful.

 

 Well, back to glue I go for now.

What have you been up to?

 

See you soon!

 

Sparkly heart

 

 

ps: How about 3 random things for fun?

 

 1) This Alpaca cutie lives down the road from me.

With a blonde friend, a bit smaller and so cute!

And a Great Pyrenees guarding them.

2)  If you wonder where Santa spends spring and summer.

Well, it's a big secret.

But, I'll tell you.

Just down the road from my country pad…

Is where he tucks away in his desert hideaway called Christmas Valley.

See the name on the gate?

And yes, there are video cameras in the Christmas trees.

    Hellooooo Miss Vanessa! Long time, no see. ^_^
    I’ve loved reading the last few posts about you and your sister… your shenanigans make me smile great huge smiles. ^__^
    I think throwing Trix at one’s sibling is a completely appropriate usage of cereal. I myself have employed Cheerios to the same end… ^_~
    I hope you’re having as much fun in your glitter and glue as you look and sound like you are! And your weather looks lovely as ever, and your flowers are so bright and pretty, I think I can smell them from here. I hope you’re enjoying your weekend!
    XOXO

    Looks like beautiful things are going straight from your head to paper. You’ve reminded me! I must watch Anna Karenina! I’d completely forgot I’d been wanting to, off to iTunes!

  4. Annaleeeee!! I love seeing you!! 😉 Oh yes, my sis and I have been getting into all sorts of mischief. Pina Coladas included 😉
    The weather he is sublime, spring fully here. Are you still chilly where you are?? xoxo

  5. Isn’t that funny? We couldn’t believe Santa had moved in right down the street 😉

  6. The soundtrack is really something… and that little menu song takes my breath away 😉

  7. I am really impressed by this blog! Very clear explanation of issues is given and it is open to everyone.
