Space Oddity Recreated As Children's Book

One of my favorite(favourite for your Brits) David Bowie song, probably one of yours too, recreated as a children's book. I love the art work and I can hear the song playing in my head as I look at these beautiful illustrations.

Can you hear me Major Tom?



Found this on ManMad DIY's blog....what a cute idea. Find more at Comic's Alliance. http://www.comicsalliance.com/2011/08/30/space-oddity-david-bowie-andrew-kolb/

Deep Dark Africa








Very charming (and reasonably priced) shop! Deep Dark Africa features items made from African artists...I am in love with these horn items. They remind me of my granny..especially those beautiful bangles.

I did it!





After days...weeks even, of me telling myself, you don't need these...and they are too expensive...I took the plunge after finding them 45% off! Yay! These are the most beautiful sandals I have EVER seen. I just need UPS to hurry up! :)

Theophilus London








I like his style...and his song "Wine & Chocolates" But what's up with the Diamondbacks hat? He should seriously be sportin a TC hat...IMHO. :)

Just Cus...

This day calls for some Jon Hamm...especially since I have to wait until 2012 for more Mad Men!


I'm mad...man.

Print by Hand

Most of my craft endeavors belong on Regretsy, rather than Etsy. I have wanted to print my own fabric for a very long time, but I couldn't a book that gave me exactly what I wanted. That is, until I read Lena Corwins' book "Printing by Hand". The designs are actually cute! I made a stencil last night and printed the design on a tea towel, it couldn't be any cuter! I think I am going to make more and give them to my mommy for Mother's Day.
