Is it only me?...

Surely I'm not the only person who has gained a few pounds since we started self quarantining because of COVID-19.  Do yourself a kindness and back away from the scale!

This little kiwi has wings!

Inspired by a wooden kiwi bird in a Crate and Barrel ad.  I kept an eye out for appropriate sized twigs to serve as legs.  I was determined to make my own kiwi.

Evidently their wings are quite tiny hidden by hair rather than feathers.  It is a small flightless nocturnal bird and mine has a crown!

Save the Arts!

Once the pandemic is over, I hope museums and galleries will open once again.  Money is tight everywhere.  Consider donating to your favorite art place!

Business as Usual...

Time on my hands, looking for something to do.  A big project on my design wall, but I need a little distraction.  I decided to make a business card case out of whatever was lying around.
