New in the shop - tmatthews ETSY

I just put these three in my tmatthews ETSY shop. They are a few of my very favorites. I think the pear would be so fun in a chic country kitchen. And Claire just makes me smile. I love her big lips. The Santa painting would make a great gift--original art is always a great gift! :)

Cortez Craft Fair

I had such a good time this weekend in Cortez and I met so many wonderful people! It was also so fun chatting with some of the other artists and crafters. I couldn't resist a bracelet from Rustic Mama. And I had so much fun chatting with Jacy from zbabiez. Her stuff is darling and so well made! I'm trying to talk her into putting some of her amazing diaper cakes on ETSY. If you're looking for baby gifts, check out her blog!

I always like to see my paintings in a grouping. They seen to compliment each other. Most folks were looking for crafts, not art, so many of these are back in my tmatthews ETSY shop.

The knitted and felted bags were a big hit. I couldn't believe how much the little girls like my mini purses. One little sweetie kept putting all my mint table decorations into them. So cute!

The chalkboard countdown Santa signs were popular too. I've listed some other ones in my bumblebina ETSY shop. Most people bought them for their homes, but I did have one order for a large one for a dentist's office. That will be a fun way to brighten up the joint! :)

These little cuties (my daughter and my cousin's daughter) sold hair flowers to earn Christmas money. Aren't they sweet?

Thank you Cortez for a lovely weekend!!

NFAC - Holiday

This painting may look slightly familiar. It used to be just the trees. Well, I gave it a makeover, distressed it some more and now it's ready for the world!

This is my entry for Nibblefest this month. The theme is holidays.

Craft Fair This Weekend In Cortez, CO

If you are anywhere near by Cortez, Colorado this Saturday, come on in and say hi!

Newest Teacher Name Sign

This one went out in the mail yesterday. It's getting to be that time--time to order Christmas gifts for the special teachers in your life.

Teacher Name Signs are always available in my bumblebina ETSY shop.

New Name Signs - Something's Fishy :)

My sister ordered these for my niece's pre-school teachers who are both, coincidentally, named Kathy. Their room has an ocean/fish theme so we decided each sign needed it's own little fishy!

Teacher Name Signs are always available in my bumblebina ETSY shop!

(I will soon be making a listing for signs like this with a little image painted at the end of the name.)

IF - Skinny

An oldie, but one of my very favorites. This is Danika and she may be skinny, but she is scrappy!

Inspire Me Thursday - Dark

Georgia and her Kitty, 12" x 9", acrylic on canvas

It may be dark outside sooner now with Daylight Savings, but Georgia is not about to give up her tank top and sun hat! It's her signature ensemble!
