Tattoo Tights!

One of my Facebook friends just shared this nifty tattoo design tights project from Urban Threads and I figured I'd pass it on.



Now I just need to figure out what I want to make. There's a temptation to use Hirschfeld's drawing of Groucho Marx, so I could have my not-so-sekret crush stealing a peek up my skirt. *laughs*

Another round of treasury inclusions!

I wish that I had more time to make Etsy treasuries. I was able to do a whole lot more when I was out of work last winter, but my time gets eaten up quickly these day. I am incredibly grateful to those folks who do find the time to do treasuries and are kind enough to include my work, though.
Here are some of the awesome treasuries that I've been included in over the last few weeks:

Holy Hill Art and Farm Market


A couple of weeks ago, I had the opportunity to visit with Kristine Jacklin at her family’s homestead farm in Hubertus, Wisconsin and I have to say…it’s a REALLY lovely spot. The 160 year old Loosen family farm will be the site of the inaugural year of the Holy Hill Art and Farm Market on the weekends of September 17th-18th and October 15th -16th.
I won’t be vending at the September event, but I’ll be coming up to check out the market. I’m SO excited about vending at the October market! I have all sorts of morbid little treasures, just in time for Halloween.
Kris asked me to share the message below about the market weekends with all of you:

Fanboys...*sigh*



Unfortunately, I don't know who drew this, but the idea of Jules Verne fanboying Edgar Allan Poe had me in stitches. This needed to be shared. If you know who the artist is, please share and I'll happily credit them.
