FOLK ART ROOSTERS

Folks seem to like Roosters! So I've painted two more  on wrap around canvas for the shops. They are 16" X 20" and priced at $35.00 each plus postage.

A more robin egg blue version.

Great Grandson Eli making his cars go around the green circle.  Hope you'll visit my second blog too: www.preciouscottageblogspot.com

I PRONOUNCE IT SPRING!

I know I'm a little ahead of the calendar, but this is the way I do it: I leave my outside Christmas Decorations up adding Valentine Hearts, then take them down after Valentines day and put out spring! So this was the day! Our little dog "Tasha"  made the rounds with me!

I took out the live greenery and poinsettias and added tulips in my little sitting area.

Add little wooden hearts until I plant the bright yellow and purple violas later in March.

Front door with the spring wreath. Can see a little glimpse inside too!

Tulips and daffodils added to the grapevine wreaths on rail fence each side of the driveway

Sweet little handmade mat given to me by my special friend Rose Marie for Valentines Day I just love it! It's so me!

The back is corduroy.

A friend Patricia put this quote on facebook and I loved it so much I made a piece of art out of it! Hope you'll slip over a view my 2nd blog: wwwpreciouscottage.blogspot.com

GIFT BAGS FOR CLUB +GLAMPING BOOK

I wanted a little something different for my exchange gift bags! Then I remembered the fabric flowers I made in the summer and hadn't done anything with. So painted a steam and leaves on the bags and pinned on the flower and there you go!

As you probably know I have a thing for cute campers and glamorous camping! So been wanting Mary Jane's book and got it!

My favorite early morning read spot. Don't get to do as much as I use to now that we care for our 2 1/2 year old great grandson full time.

Found this cute little  Christmas ornament a couple of years ago but I leave it out and enjoy it all year long!

I came across a neat facebook site: Jude Hill Spirit Cloth and was inspired to change one of her pieces to my own liking. Have ideas for several more animal 9-patch blocks too!

My newest painting: "Fish.Flora,Fauna Fantasy" is ready for hanging! This colorful 25"x 31" acrylic original would brighten an entry or any wall in your home! Price is $120.00

Husband Maurice doing his breathing treatment 3 times a day trying to get over "something" (the doctors can't seem to find out what) that he has had since July! I'm inviting you again to visit my other blog also: wwwpreciouscottage.blogspot.com and Marlynne Snare Folk Artist on facebook
