Dick Blick Bliss!!


I love, love, love, love...................Dick Blick! It is supply nirvana at great prices. And yes, Mod Podge by the GALLON!! So this morning at 7:30 I spotted the Fed Ex truck coming down the lane.....could it be? Yes, it was!
One gallon matt Mod Podge! Aint she purdy!

Sharpie mettallic paint pens, three sizes of White paint Sharpies, and the lovely, indestructable E6000 glue!

In my Dick Blick Bliss, I hoist said gallon of Podge above my head and sing the Hallelujah Song, which is just like the Shut Up song only with different words. This puts the 13 year soul right over the edge of her tenuous hold on a good morning and she say, and I quote......"Thanks Mom, the Hallelujah song is now responsible for the worst morning of my life!". Really??

Hit the Thrifts and found a few lovelies!!

Found such lovely things! The black leather coat on the left is J.Crew, fit me perfectly and is worn to a buttery softness! Who would give this up? It is hanging of this beautiful handmade crate.....I love old wooden boxes!

A worn, loved bible, smaller book is The Words of Jesus, two silver cups, one for Pat and one for Tim, a turquoise bottle and emerald green dish!

Little retro Avon bottles!

A trove of silver spoons, in a black Hagar planer, a silver footed canlde holder with another little Avon bottle in it!

Couldn't resist the best sport stories of 1963 (the year I was born) and I'm a sucker for worn out baseballs, my nephew Isaac plays and will be leaving for college soon on a baseball scholarship!

But the best find of the day was a perfect, gorgeous, light pink wedding dress for my sisters photo shoot to promote wedding photography! We had been asking the universe for one we could afford and there she was in all of her $25 glory! Thrilled!!

Bottles and Baubles!!

While restoring my soul, and waiting for things to dry, I made a few of these for our Born in a Barn, fall sale!!






Did you know...............

There may have to be an intervetion.....I'm obsessed and admitted it when I ordered an entire gallon of:

Everytime I pass through my work area, I grab a brush and start adhering something to something, when they break down the doors they will find me with bits and pieces stuck all over me, gluey, gooey brushes everywhere and I'll be elbow deep in my new gallon of Mod Podge! Who knew Soul Restoration would lead to this!!

"Anyone who is not on your same evolutionary & spiritual frequency will distance himself from you, while all those who are on the same evolutionary & spiritual frequency as you will come closer to you; you will see how amazing it is to discover that everyone who needs to be by your side will ultimately appear in your life in the most spontaneous & divine manner. That's how powerful the mind is!"

Between Soul Restoration and this new little addiction I've had no time!! So far this is the funniest thing I've found on pinterest.com, fair warning if you go there, you may never come back!! Next to singing "the shut-up song" and letting my best friend get blamed for it, this made me laugh out loud!!
