weekend wonders...

Before I left Warwick for my weekend's adventure (more on this below), I was inspired to move about some of my favorite collections....it super charges me to play with my goodies, folk art and fun things.... I have put away the last of the Valentine treasures and the chicks and bunnies are starting to try to pop out of their boxes.

(new to blogging and had hope to load an image here...well working out the kinks...)

I just got off the phone with Lisa Kaus and she has a group of Spring themed work in progress. And Dara DiMagno just sent a new collection of jewlery laden with flowers and fancies (Paul has promised me major postings on the weekend of March 2-3!! so keep an eye out for her latest and much more from other artist friends). Ahhhh....just 4 more weeks of winter and then Spring can have it's fun and me along with it!

...now what is a weekend for...well this weekend I am off to Manhattan for my annual girls weekend with my 13 year old niece Hayley. I love that this will be our 6th adventure togeter...we'll catch a tour of the Madame Alexander Doll Museum, see friends Michelle Hodge and artist Robert Tonner at Comicon, hit Tinsel Trading, and every shoe store and Godiva in between...pure heaven to have a good friend to share time. Of course, this is not a typical weekend for me the Mom of 3 little ones, but I love the escape!! I hope you have a moment to yourself to enjoy something fun this weekend too...

love art, eat cake, have fun
