It was way past time to switch out my family room couch slip covers from the holiday red to a spring/summery cool off white. After doing so, I realized it needed a pop of color. So, I decided to make new slip covers for the pillows. It may be a bit flowery for dear hubby, but I like them:
I even added some butterflies, a dragonfly, and a ladybug for some whimsy.
And my neighbor who owns SunnysideLOCAL Nursery, kindly gifted me with these heirloom tomato plants. Here they are with Hiro:
Dear Hubby decided it was time to go and get some new shoes. This entails driving to the outlet malls and looking through various shoe shops, and Electronics shops as well… So, the ever supportive wife that I am, I decided to tag along. I am not the stereotypical woman; I am not into shoes. Anyway, after much patience, going in and out of different shops, we were finished – yay! The best part came on the drive home. We stopped by some Antique stores, and I picked up a few things. A family of cute vintage ceramic bunnies, six vintage orange juice cups, and a Little Kiddles doll. I love everything orange since we live in a small grove. and the Little Kiddles doll reminded me of my childhood. Oh, and I did get a pair of new sandals too 🙂
I went out to my garden, thinking what I wanted to plant, and beheld this beautiful sight. My artichoke plant from last year had flowered! So beautiful!
And there are more on the way. Not sure if I should harvest them, or just let them flower:
And, I have been very busy sewing away. I have two days rental of a long arm machine coming up. Here are some scraps from my current projects – gifts for some very special people:
I was playing around with Photoshop and made this mask – flower themed, for spring:
