Decided to do a “series” of originals (OR) for the new ACEOs we’re offering!

I was trying to catch the slight shimmer in the florals… each is signed by the artist… which is me, y’all. :)

Working on some new ACEOs!! Have had my board taped off for days! Just now finally able to sit down and work on some new techniques that I wanted to try out.
What’s an ACEO? It stands for Art Cards, Editions, & Originals. They measure 2.5x3.5 inches exactly . And mine will come in a protective plastic sleeve and be Originals (at the time) . Great for collecting! And displaying in those cute little frames. Art for the fridge?!? YES! Or you can collect a whole series and frame them together. Each will have my artist signature, dated, say the medium .. I’ve got all kinds of ideas floating in my head that I thought these would be a great way to put it watercolor paper in this case .

ACEOs will be $5 each . And we’re kicking it off with “Sweet Summer Stripes” ! I only have 6 available. Each one-of-a-kind and hand-painted. To claim yours, just send me a message for now.

Shipping is available for an additional fee :)

Will it rain in my neck of the woods??? Not taking any chances y’all. The rain moved AROUND us all day yesterday. So yeah, I’m turning the sprinkler on for a bit to give the flower patch a drink of water that it desperately needs.

This morning I “hid” the last of the mini-mini- Ol’ Glory artworks. Where is it?
And if you are the finder, yes, you get to keep it and take it home to enjoy :)

Just spent the past almost 2 hours washing & picking to get only the best parts through today’s harvest of peppermint in preparation for dehydrating. Now it will sit out and air dry a bit before the next step in the process 😍🥰

Welllll look who had some work to do at our place this morning! Power washing our fuel tank… he was out there super quick too y’all!
That’s why no pic of him in action. Lol
Give Daniel a call for those items you need power washed! He’s based out of St. Paul, Indiana

Ummm you think they’ll let me paint it “pretty” after they do the “required” colors? Hmmmmmm 🤔

I’ve been searching for the “perfect” tea kettle for a few weeks now… boiling the water in a saucepan for the loose tea that I grow and dehydrate here for us just wasn’t cutting it anymore…. Lo and behold, we went to go visit our favorite spot in Franklin, @hidden_treasures_franklin to see her new location (it’s amazing, by the way!) and look what I found!! A vintage rooster tea kettle that “crows” !!
Y’all gotta go visit her shop! You won’t be disappointed! Sooo many goodies!
