Windows on the World

Window with Cowboy boot photo

Arch de Triomphe window

Got these windows done today.  I decided to put the boot photo on this plane
glass window.  It didn't fit in the vertical one.  And the Paris one is just right
in this large white window.  I may add some words or other images, or some
collaged paper...will have to look at them awhile.  Sometimes they will "speak" to
me and give me ideas about what is still needed.  (is that wierd?!) 

Anyway, I am going to try to save these to sell in Dallas next January in
my wholesale cash and carry booth.  I will also be taking the printed bags,
coasters, notecards, and all the scripture photos.  I hope it won't be too
hodge-podgey...I will have to try to pull it all together, or at least group it
for display.  We'll see!  Depends on how much I can get done between now and
then.  I have coasters ordered, new scripture photos on the way, and some
more notecards in the works.  They should all be here this week. 
Retail store owners will be able to buy and take with them, or place orders
for shipment later.  I will be in the vintage/handmade area in the Cash and Carry
section during the January Dallas Gift and Decorative Wholesale Market.
very exciting!

I leave in the morning for Covington, KY and the CPSA convention.
It will be fun to visit a new area....I have never been to Ohio or Kentucky.
Will try to post while there!

Get Back on the Horse

When I worked on the fishing label frame the other day, I got
all my vintage junk out...in view.  Now I want to use some more of
it while it is convenient!
I have a window with two long panes of glass still
intact in the center of the window.  It calls for a long vertical
image.  And since I am going to be selling some of these
in Texas, I thought it needed to be a "cowboy" theme.  I found
this photo I had taken while in Dubois last year at the Susan K.
Black foundation workshop.  perfect.  So I printed it tonight,
and tomorrow I will work on getting it on the window.
(which has to be washed off, cleaned up, and dried).
At least one more window ( and some of the other "junk"
will be out of the way, and made into something great!)
