I can't believe i found my way back to my long lost blog.

I'm very pleased to have had the foresight to write my password down and then ...to have remembered where that piece of paper was. I'm pretty sure i'll be talking to myself for awhile, (LOL) ...until I figure out how to promote this blog in a way that others will actually visit it and read it ~ which I hope will, eventually, benefit all of us.

So much has changed since last updated this blog. I'm still very fortunate to be living in my dream house, that was just finishing construction at the time i last wrote back in 2016. I was diagnosed with severe COPD which prevents me from being able to do so much of what I truly love to do, such as gardening, treasure hunting at various venues such as thrift shops, antique malls, yard sales and even some dumpster diving! Those that know me and those that have followed me know how much I loved it. The good news is, is that I had so much inventory already lining the shelves and drawers of my workshop that I have plenty to do to keep my quite busy for a good long time.

I'm loving the junk journals. My daughter made me one and I got hooked! Ive been inspired so much! Here are a few things i've created recently.

Ps. Please leave me a comment so i know i'm not talking to myself! I have lots of things i'd like to run through my blog; to get to know some of you and be reacquainted with some of my past followers. With my health situation I don't foresee myself being able to do a YouTube channel like so many do to promote their art. Im going to give this a go and see where it goes.

The pictures are of embellishments for a junk journal that I created. 2 are tags about 6x4" featuring my hand painted pink cottage tea roses and the smaller pieces are hand-painted topiaries and roses on fabric and old book pages.
