gorgeous front page treasury from theseawithin!

the "twins" hats have made a resurgence and i'm inspired to make more hats for multiples...

of course, i missed SEEING the front page because i was napping. while playing hooky from school. (bad bad naughty girl, i know).

so incredibly hard to come home to responsibility after a weekend frolicking with your hubby. drats!

road trips and websites...

just back from a lovely wedding on the beach in santa barbara this weekend.

did NOT get any work done and had way too much fun.

to atone (a naughty weekend on the beach in santa barbara ain't cheap) i've been toying with weebly creating a new free website for oishii.

have a gander and let me know what you think... oishii.weebly.com

(ahem... and did you notice the new banner for the blog?)

pssst! i am creating a crew of new dolls and ummm... they are amazing!!

well, this one is a teaser... no pics! at least not yet.

i am creating seven new dolls for castle in the air (the most lovely of shops on 4th street in berkeley).

i absolutely adore them. these cousins of lefty, paolo and claudette are an international crew - hailing from every corner of the planet.

each has a story and a tiny treasure hidden inside. they are oh-so-super-yummy-oishii i can hardly stand it!

please stay tuned for more details...

upcoming shows!
