Serendipity

Remember when I was looking for a new home for "Super Bake Girl?"  Okay, really, I had her for sale in the shop.  But, I did hope she would find a nice new home, as any mother hopes for a creature she sells off…

Well, the darling not only went and found a new home… She found a magical new world. Guess what the best part of it is?  She found me a new and wonderful friend.  Of course, this was only after I picked my jaw up off the ground after a peek into the world "Super Bake Girl" has gone to live in…

See this place here?  Does it remind you of something?  Perhaps Summer?  Perhaps, bliss? 

      

I'll tell you where that paradise place is.  That is the shop that belongs to "Super Bake Girl's" new mom.  It is called Consuela Style.  Here is "Super Bake Girl" in her new home.  See her there on the wall?  She is delighted!!!

      

In all seriousness though.  The funniest twist, or should I say, the fanciful-est twist, ocurred, when Consuela and myself actually ended up having the lovliest little phone chat.  She is talented and wonderful! And, we both have many similiar artistic thoughts and questions swirling around… Nothing like contemplating art.

This is a bit of what Consuela (family given nickname for the dreamer, wild-child, hippie chick, underneath her occasionally over-analytical exterior self) shared with me about herself and her artistic concept…

"I love everything to do with the beach, permanent vacations especially in Mexico, flip-flops-handbags – and jewelry, sitting on the back porch in the evenings with friends and family.  I believe that Summer is not only a season, it's a state-of-mind…it's a feeling that under the right conditions can be induced anywhere, any time of year…and considering that we do not know what tomorrow brings, I strive everyday to feel like it's warm, with a cool breeze and bright blue skies, on a drive with the top down…no worries!  Sounds corny, but it actually works!! 😉 I had a corporate job for way longer than I care to admit or remember for that matter….but now am having a blast exploring my creative side.  My interests are all over the place right now.  I make caps, hats, bags, pillows for outside (made with oil cloth)  mixed media art…some jewelry…tshirts, etc…I sell my things retail at a monthly show, do custom t-shirt designs, and I have some things online…"

And, online is just where you can go to find her.  Here are some photos Consuela shared with me of her work & her shop on the go…

      

      

      

      

      

      

   

      

      

Is that fun and fantastic, or what??  Tell Consuela I said "howdy," if you get to visit her!

As for me.

I am a slow slow slow pitiful blogging friend.  I know, you are sick of hearing that from me and from every other Tash, Delia, & Harriet.  But, I promise, I am up to good stuff.  I am trying to feverishly get a brand new, and so lovely, jewelry case ready. As it is going into a brand new fab hair salon tomorrow morning.  It will be full of my jewel creations.  I am swamped with new tags and inventory lists…. And getting my own credit card machine set up there.  It has been nutcake-ville here.  But please, don't get mad or annoyed at me for being the slowest blogger ever in the history of blogging…. Just get your firm buns over here and help me. 😉 XXO
