A whole box of crayons...

I sit here...it the corner of my little winter studio - in such a mess, it looks like a madwoman has been on the loose  !  Oh, wait.... there was !!!! ( smiles)  These past couple of weeks have been a whirlwind trip for me, and I haven't even had to leave the comfort of my own home. Glad to be back  :-)

Sounds like a madwoman...doesn't it ?  I do get that way sometimes.  I have a little bauble that hangs around my neck  that says..."sometimes there was a storm in her brain" . So fitting for me. And I must say - it brings me comfort knowing that Sally Jean would create that- as I  know she didn't do it just for me   :-)  ... So, there are others out there who feel the way I do???  Whew !   Usually , brainstorming is a good thing.    I get SO inspired to do so many different things. AND, I  really do feel there is much for me to offer - if only I had the time.  I have created many dolls and little pieces of art lately - only to look over in one little corner here and see all the little heads ripped off of them.  Did I do that ?   Oh, yes I did !  Ha !   I was trying to mix it all up too much.... in as much as I have created some fine little pieces of folk art recently.... there are some freaky things in the mix over here  :-)   So, if this sign is true........

I"ll have to say -As far as my little creative world goes...I'm going to have to stick with a few select colors, or it all becomes too  much like some crazy psychedelic trip for me !  

I actually discovered this saying just a few days ago - AFTER my little personal creative struggle.   I truly do love it though, and It is SO true .   We should use the whole box of crayons in every aspect of our lives .

You may be able to see - by my new header and a few side picture additions that I'm back to my old self again.   I like simple. I like light. I like peaceful.   That's what you're going to continue seeing alot more of here at  my fine farmhouse.  OH....and there are a few other good things that did come out of this little episode of mine.  This sign - for instance.  I'm working on a whole new line of signs, art pieces and pillows with special messages such as this.

Thanks for stopping by for a visit.... xoxo,    Dru
p.s.     Now that I have this new laptop, and I'm settling down for the winter - I plan to make it more of a routine to stop by and visit you  more often.  I read your kind comments, and I look forward to getting to know all of you better.
