Get Springing into Spring
Notes for Today
Wow Spring is here ? but the snow still stayed. However, we still need to get to all the things related to spring. Put away the winter clothes, and winter deco. (note to me) must now put up my primitive snowmen )
I have started springing . I have bought a sewing machine and trying new things. I have been shopping online , no traffic, take your time, stay in you P J'S ) There is so much online that cannot be found in Malls. I have been cleaning which for me means:
. giving books I have read and know I will not read again to the local library
.giving shoes still in good condition but no longer wear to the corner Red Cross Bin (they need shoes , boots, sandals , all year round.
. Giving clothes that I no longer wear to charity shops (like salvation army)
. Clean out the cupboards , food that is still in date , but you know you won't use right away before the expired date , the food bank , they more so than ever need support.
. The list is endless and they are lots of places to give your stuff you no longer want or use a great way to recycle.
After my springing I like to treat myself to a few new things and I feel creative .
If you feel the need to treat yourself after springing I recommend http://www.artsycraftsyfolks.com

What is Perfection?
Notes for Today
There is something to be said for perfection , but in the modern world perfection tends to mean
1000 or millions of the same stamped out boring items. Items that anyone can get at a department store or in mass markets.
Items that are unique and one of a kind have a definite glow about them that spells Special.
And personalized items are at the top of my list. After all who wants stuff everyone has (boring)
the trend has arrived that more and more people want things they can use and things around them that will be the new heirlooms of the future.
I am tired of the cheap factory stuff that looks tacky fast and is or wants to be thrown out in a few weeks or months.
How about you are you tired of the the stamped out goods out there that are pretending to be perfect?
Check out the new trend at www.artsycraftsyfolks.com
They are lots of items there that are unique one of a kind . The new heirlooms of the future buy artist made .

An Old Fashioned Christmas
Notes for Today
Christmas can bring lots of expectations, if too many then fatigue can settle in and
take the spark out of the season.
Everyone has their own idea of what makes Christmas work for them.
The gifts, the food, the decorations, the getting things in the mail.
In recent Christmas's I have decided on decor mainly inside with just my mechanical
snow man outside.
I don't bake as much and think more of just deserts for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.
I used to cook and freeze for weeks. It is our family tradition to have Christmas dinner
on Christmas Eve and have Christmas Day (the leftovers) no cooking and spend time with family and friends (relax)
Shopping for gifts in the spirit of an Old Fashion Christmas (with a modern twist or two) can be found with lots of variety at www.artsycraftsyfolks.com One of a kind gifts for your Christmas gift giving. All original Nova Scotia art from Nova Scotia Artists.

Gift Giving Has Changed Do you agree?
Notes for Today
I suppose this really dates me but in my young years gift giving was for the most part small
luxuries , like handkerchiefs , mini perfumes (evening in paris ) panties , bars of scented soaps, towels, mittens, gloves, scarves . Practical stuff.
Things homemade were popular as well, they took time, patience and creativity.
I still have the clown that was made by hand by a childhood friends mother with an embroidered face made from cloth and thread only given to me over 45 years ago and feel it is a treasure I keep.
Creativity , and Originality is now the new wave of Gift Giving.
People now for the most part can buy most of the things they need, including electronics etc.
It is the original, hand crafted one of a kind unique Art that will endure time and create memories and be remembered as the gift to cherish. Why not Shop online at www.artsycraftsyfolks.com and get that original gift for that special someone or yourself. Artsycraftsyfolks specialize in Creativity from many different Nova Scotia Artists. Make gift giving special you won't be disappointed.

Just Checking In
The Internet certainly has changed life everywhere even in remote areas.
I live in a remote area no shopping malls , no taxis, a trip to do errands can take up an entire day. The internet brings shopping right into our homes and keeps us connected with friends old and new around the world.
And now we have high speed internet in our remote area that is not available even in places on the mainland thanks to a local guy Kevin who has started his own service Coastal Wireless. This certainly enables one to save lots of time and myself and http://www.artsycraftsyfolks.com/ have this service and recommend it . It certainly makes the internet lots faster , and is a real time saver .especially
getting pictures uploaded or videos.WOW
To the right is my recently sold aceo collector art card #1

Primitive Decor
Every once in awhile I add something new to my home that gives it that personal
touch. I don't believe that everything has to match. I just buy what I like and put it where I like; afterall our home is our castle.
I have recently purchased bowl fillers ( love , hope, joy )my first ones,and quilted place mats from http://www.artsycraftsyfolks.com/ the place mats give my kitchen a colorful country look, and the bowl fillers give me a primitive look and messages to live by. Thought I would include a couple of pictures. These are handmade and very affordable, and you can order them custommade.
