DIY Birthday

My amazing Daughter Billianne, just turned the BIG 5!
I really wanted to create a memorable birthday wonderland without all the timings and trappings bought from the store.Below you will see what we worked on…

I Started with the invites…

I created dessert stands from cute old saucers and serving dishes. The spacers are old stubby crystal goblets.

I had been having dreams about a tent.
I came across an image on the interweb and just couldn't get it out of my head
My creation is in no shape or form as great as the image, but it is as magic…

FloatHome Village Coloring Book

This is a post from last spring. (blog migration)...

There is a season opening down on the docks here this weekend.
www.victoriaharbour.org
I figured what a great time to debut of my ever-expanding coloring book that showcases this amazing community.

(Jackson was giving me a hard time because his Ice Cream Shop was not yet included...but be it known...Jackson will appear!)

I hope to include all the businesses and a few more homes.
Life on the docks is a colorful and amazing experience.
Come down and see for yourself.

Punk Rock Reunion

So this weekend is the annual Punk Rock Bowling in Vegas.
It is a crazy fun event and has become a meet up for myself andsome of my most best-est friends.

When I lived in San Francisco I had a little apt on the border of the Mission dist and Potrero Hill.

It was a fun little place.

Two of the most amazing women came into my life and we all shared this little space.
the Address was 325 Potrero ave.

we always loved 325
and that has become a number that we use like a Verb.
so I thought I would commemorate 325 in a charm necklace.

"O" is for Octopus

This little Octo friend may only have 4 legs, but he has a cozy new home.

Safe and sound in our little door front garden, he will watch 40,000 tourists come and go from the harbour ferry stop out side my home.
I think I need to paint more door front friends on stones…
