The blog soiree of the season is being held at the Swashbuckler Castle in just a few days... So, I decided to start a little early. Have a colorful little outdoor party for myself, to celebrate the upcoming event... (may I add that, everyday in itself, is reason enough to throw yourself a party)
I am so in love with color! Do you think I could convice a Swashbuckler to prance around in fun stripes or delicious polka dots? Hmm, it might take some moonshine to get away with that one...
I must say, discovering a can of Design Master, Olive Bright #790, on my shelves, was more excitement than my little heart could contain! It was enough to get me to Olive Brighten up a brass candelabra!!!
May I humbly add, that I made all of the ceramic treasures on this table... Most of you know, I have been a potter at the Tucson Museum of Art for many years... But, believe it or not, this is the very first time I have set the table, solely using my creations...
I best make sure to set a place for Miss Mouserson... She would be terribly offended if I didn't...
Don't forget to set your table (as well as yourself) with lots and lots of ribbons. Ribbons (or little strips of precious fabrics) make everything extra special...
Be sure not to miss all the lovely edible and rare treasures that might make their way here by way of a magic pirate ship (on Saturday)...
Can you imagine, that a green candelabra could spark such joy, and cause all this raucous...
I have been soaking up the lovely weather, and just indulging in thousands of flower petals... I have been throwing them up in the sky...
And letting them rest upon my walkway... Amazing really, how such a simple pleasure, can feel so decadent...
I had better be on my way... Here I am dreaming and playing, when I have tons to do... And paint!!
Especially with an almost perfectly healed leg!!! We have to paint the town hot pink, chartreuse, yellow & teal! Don't you think???
Oh and I almost forgot... I have a new colorful Creature Collections, print in the shop. I so thank Miss Holly Becker of Decor8, for featuring it!! (You can see it on her blog, if you scroll down to one of several 4/30/2008 posts) That was a lovely surprise for me this week!!
There will be siblings joining this piece soon. I can't tell you how much I love white with brilliant splashes of color, and vintage love!
I am excited to share what comes next in this series. I am still working on more paper dress girls... And, like I said, the new dolls are 2 seconds away from complete...
See you, oh so sooooon!! xoxo, V
