A welcome sign of spring!

I adore my violets. They grace my lawns each spring. This past year was so harsh, hot and dry, then cold and icy. The lawns have suffered, but whoever said violets shrink obviously knew nothing of their hardiness. They never disappoint even under the harshest of midwestern winters.




Sparky is showing off my new bear from Japan. I could not resist! I know, I know, I make bears, but I still covet the work of others!



My dogs Red and Sparky. Bindy is missing from the picture, she preferred to take a nap somewhere away from the boys!




My bluebird still has no bids. I am stymied as to why. I think he is wonderful, but I am biased.
Hooray, he has a bid today 4/25, he ends tomorrow thankyou dear bidder!,


I am working on new things, new ideas, and not sure if I will offer them on eBay, my website, or Etsy. I have to set up shop there! Its such a vibrant community I seem to be missing out of the fun. When I get set up I will post a link, and do let me know what you think!
