Ok so you probably didn't even notice I was gone, I mean what's a week or 2 in blogland eh? ;o)
Well while I've been gone I have cleared out so much stuff from my art room and moved everything round so it is far better for working in, I have new storage baskets and a new lovely rug too.......the room still needs redecorating but that will come some other time now, it will be a lot of work when it does and will take up far more time than I have spare right now!!
Since I re-did my arty room the art has been pouring out of me and I have just listed these 10 items in my etsy shop.
Along with my usual canvas board paintings I have some on cradled wood boards (such a dream to paint on) and some new blank mini/pocket journals too.
I did have a bit of a minor glitch along the way with my email system crashing and when I tried to move to another system I lost a few hundred emails along the way, bit of a nightmare but all fixed now, so I won't complain :o)
Along with the new art for my etsy shop I have also (with the help of my lovely hubby) made a new blog/etsy banner and avatar based on one of my new paintings.....I hope you likey? ;o)
Anyway's enough of my waffle on with the art.......
Glad to be back ;o)

p.s.........My new blog posting/etsy shop listing day will be Friday from now on!!!

Welcome back dear friend! glad you could get your room cleaned out, it sure does feel better when it's done! mine has already filled up again, lol!
ReplyDeleteWow, you sure have been creative, I love that pic of everything all together! good job Micki, they are all unique, and wonderful!
I've been absent for about a month from blogger, and noticed there are less people around. I'm thinking the coming nicer weather has got folks outside - that's what I've been doing at least! hope it's been lovely and sunny your way, we've had freakishly hot weather here in my part of Canada, warmer than we get in June!
anyway, have a lovely day!

Thanks Betty, I'm sure mine will fill up fast again too ;o)
