This is just a small portion of my, as I call it, my blessed mess! I love my mess. I am trying so hard to share with others! My life, my mess, my interests, love, time, and stuff I know. Maybe tomorrow I will reveal more.....R

Bad Day Beautiful


Sometimes the best thing to do on one of "those" days is to hike or explore or visit one of your favorite places. This is San Juan County Park. It is one of the most beautiful places in the world. This is where I go to make a bad day Beautiful.

Found Objects Cont


Found Object Art


So what constitutes a found object? Is it some rusted piece of tin or a smashed brass button, one mitten? Or, is it wonderful like these old treasures I found at a tag sale? Maybe it is some other amazing thing found in the bottom of an old wooden crate or the corner of a jewel box?
Here are some pictures of my newest, old found objects.
