an 'extravagant" day

On Sat morning my mom and I went to the Springfield Oh "Extravanga" antique show and flea market. There were over 2,000 vendors to look through and we spent most of the day looking at lots of antique furniture and thousands of items I would have loved to have brought home with me. However, I was on a mission to find things to use for my art.....alas, I did not find as much as I hoped too, or everyone else had already bought what I was looking for on Friday ,but I did find a few treasures... I love these industrial wood pieces, they will be the start of a nice assemblage

Here are some sweet photos and tintypes

Most of the jewelry was very pricey but I did find this great bag of old seed pearls, a metal frame, and a few pieces of bling.

My last stop yielded me this group of "junk" along with some wood blocks and an old compact.

I also found there this neat old railroad lantern, which once I pry the lens open, I hope to create a piece out of

and this old horn that reminded me of a sea shell, this was my favorite find.

And lastly, an update on the birdies. They have all found their wings and are busy flying around the yard.

While I was outside watching the baby robins, I came across another nest with some baby blue-jays. It is amazing that these homely little ones will become beautiful birds! I feel so blessed to be able to observe Mother Nature and am thankful to be surrounded by her beauty.

Birdie update

Wow, I can't believe how much the little baby birds have grown in one week! They are getting their feathers in and are starting to look like little robins. I can't even imagine my children growing that fast!

Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day wishes to all of you amazing mother's out there. I want to wish my mom Kathy, the best mother of all, a very special day. You deserves the best and I love you!!

Proud mama..

With Mother's Day approaching, I wanted to share the newest mama in my neighborhood. This sweet little robin had built her nest outside on the ledge of the garage window. When I went out yesterday to check on her eggs, they had finally hatched! Here are her 4 little babies, I know they are not the cutest things right now but I cannot wait to see them get their little feathers ,open those eyes and learn to fly!
Of course I had to name them, so in honor of my favorite book and movie, To Kill a Mockingbird, meet Atticus, Scout, Jem and Boo!

a wood whatchamacallit....

I had made plans to go flea marketing on Sat and Sun, but as usual in NE Ohio we had nothing but rain on both days, so my plans were washed away....lol.... I opted to go to a local antique mall instead and found what to me was one of my best finds ever.
Stuck leaning against the wall in a booth was this amazing wood piece. My heart literally started racing when I saw it because visions of altering it went flying thru my head.
Then I reached down and turned it over and saw this and let out a squeal of utter delight!! The possiblilities of what I could do just now became endless.

I reached for the tag to see what this unique piece actually was and the tag read "wood whatchamacallit", not really a big help...lol.... but it didn't matter what it was ,it was going to be mine! My hubby thinks it was some kind of industrial mold, but I think it is going to be an amazing foundation on which to create!!

I guess I have to a reason to be thankful for rainy day weekends!
