I’ve been a slacker on my flea market reports lately

I got this green pot a couple weeks ago. I love it, it’s my current favorite color.

WIP: another sail for the Ginger Rose and some first thoughts on a new ship.

Work in progress for tinlark.

3june1307.jpg

The last daily bird for a while, at least until after the tinlark show.

3rosey.jpg

Rosey will be in the shop at 8PM EST.

* I can’t take little bird orders right now. I wish I could but I’ve got to focus on things for the show and current orders. *

* Cake topper orders are closed for June and July *

* I’m getting off the 6 am photo program. It has served it’s purpose. The super early start is working well but taking the picture is a distraction. *

*Paper mache- I use wheat paste, Golden Harvest wheat paste ( wall paper paste)*

* I want full credit for having gotten up at 5:40 am to take this !expletive! photo. Yahoo had some sort of difficulty early this morning and I am experiencing the special brand of frustration, entirely disproportionate to the circumstance, that only the internet can provide. I am mad at you internet.*
