| This is the fairy garden I just planted. I love playing with it. Except Bob, the cat likes to plop down in the middle of it to get my attention! The fairys fear his plop! |

| My sea of ferns! |
Bob rules the farmyard. Here he is sitting next to my crate of herbs which sits on the kitchen porch-close for snipping(the herbs that is!)! It has been a busy time at our farm. I enjoy working in my gardens. I have posted a few pictures of the gardens in early June. They are constantly changing.

I love hostas!

April Showers Bring May Flowers was the theme for our Feb. 13th PMA challenge. Blossom our antiqued paper mache duck sets her umbrella down now that the April showers are over and her umbrella is full of May flowers. Blossom stands on a vintage kitchen strainer.

The Boogey Man
The Boogey Man dances upon vintage organ keys as he celebrates his escape from the Autumn Harvest! He is constructed from paper mache on a wire armature. He wears vintage crepe pants and a hat decorated with vintage ribbon and tinsel. He was created for the Paper Mache Artisans' Webshow and may be purchased at
We have been working on a variety of "putz" like houses for a custom order on etsy. We really enjoyed the process. Houses appeared everywhere in the studio!
