Today Etsy featured this crazy deconstructed-style couture fashion line, Artlab. This reminds me of when I was in high school and I would play dress-up with whatever and however (in the privacy of my own room, of course). Sometimes nylon, underwear, and unfinished sewing projects look right just as they are. Kinda reminds me of Philosophy by Alberta Ferretti
I haven't checked back here in awhile, so today I looked to see what's "new" on the Jonathan Adler website, and lo and behold, there's some pretty cute stuff. Sigh.
Don't hold your breath, but someday my new card designs will be available. No money equals no printing, so I can't produce more work yet (super sigh). I thought I'd share the artwork for this mermaid theme card I finished today. (Image copyright 2009 The Paper Nut)
Looking for a cute little housewarming gift? Check out Hare and Drum on Etsy. Little works of art that surely would please anyone's tastes. Quaint yet unusual; traditional yet contemporary.
If you haven't, you should definitely check out Models.com and one of its many blogs, Daily Feed. That's how I discovered great photographers like Glynis Selina Arban. I love her work...and the beautiful Jefferson Airplane song she has playing on her site.
I just bought two new bibs this week at Babies'R'Us. There are now so many cute ones out there these days. I don't know that I really need any more, but I couldn't risist: One from J J Cole and one from Amy Coe.

And...here's a sampling of photos of ME this summer (for those of you who know me or really wish you did). Don't fret: there are pics from my recent beach voyage coming. Stay tuned.
