Oh yes, Lollipop Lollipop

I'm crazy with these lollipops but they are so much fun! And as I've said before, they keep stink bone jones still enough for pictures. This is exercise 3 in "Understanding Exposure". I really do not know what I'm doing still but I do like the way these turned out so light and pastel like. I think it overexposed a bit but creatively I like it. I still can't figure out how to read my EXIF data to figure out what the exposure is on these. Enjoy!

Le Wreath

The newest addition to my Etsy shop is Le Wreath. I really adore this wreath! If I don't sell it, I will keep it all to myself. Made from hotpink tulle and millinery from brandywine it is perfect to hang in a little girl's room or a big girl's too! It took quite sometime to make so I am pleased it is now complete!

More lollipops

Are you all tired of my lollipop pictures? Well, I'm not yet! This is about the only way I can keep stink bone jones still long enough to learn this photography thing. I am having so much FUN! He also sat through a cupcake or maybe 2. Enjoy!

Busy Busy Busy

I've been quite busy lately with my new hobby photography but cannot neglect my old hobbies, crafting! I have been preparing for a birthday party coming up this week and it is rare that we get to go to a girl's birthday party (usually all boys). So, I got to make frilly stuff! I also bought frilly things! I had so much fun crafting for this.

The brooch (in French says, "Am I gorgeous or what? Je suis belle ou quoi?) will be coming to my shop soon with much better pictures to follow. The wreath will be coming too, as soon as I get another one made up. Enjoy! Oh, the antique silver peat pot is in my shop but the other one is not. I plan on making another teal peat pot but with the words, birthday girl. It is a delightful way to give a gift.








Frosting Couture is my new favorite Etsy shop. She made these lovely shoes for the party and I also bought a matching headband. Just click on the link right here in the post to go to Frosting Couture's Etsy Shop.

Lollipop continues!

Still having fun playing with color and cropping. Here are some more lollipop pics of Stink Bone Jones. I've been busy creating new things for my shop and will have pictures by the end of the week.

Christmas 2008

We survived Christmas 2008 Although I didn't think I would. I find it a bit sad that the holidays are so overwhelming as I imagine Christ did not have this in mind. We found our way to church two days before Christmas but not on Christmas. I do have some great memories of my Stink Bone this year. It is the first time EVER that he has opened a present. He didn't even care to open any for his 2nd birthday last year. Each time he opened something he would say, "New truck or new car?"

An old friend just came by the other day to visit from out of town and brought her beautiful daughter Ava. Christian is quite the ladies man and actually gently cupped her face in his hand to turn it so that he could go in for a kiss. What am I going to do with my little Cassanova!?
