Next week, from the 22nd through the 25th, I'm hosting a big Painting Sale in the store! This is, officially, the very first sale I've ever done on original art....and it's a doozie of one.
20% off *every* original painting--including pieces from my latest "Endangered" series! On some of the larger and more expensive paintings, 20% off is a whopper of a discount. Truly.Special sales are a bit rare in my neck of the woods, so I hope that everyone who's had a keen eye on a painting for a while will be able to come and check it out. All the prices will be changed early Tuesday morning to reflect the sale, so you won't have to wait for a new invoice or any of that time-wasting mumbo jumbo to snag your treasure.
Alrighty, that ends the "official self promotion broadcast". In other, random news...
A couple years ago, I was wearing a white skirt while doing some window painting at work and, as any smart individual could have predicted, I managed to drip paint on it. Permanent, hot pink, window marker paint. I washed and bleached it to no avail and promptly threw it in the "mend" pile to fix at a later date.
Well, some fabric scraps from my quilt project, tiny colored beads, and steady handstitches were all it took to transform it into a wearable article of clothing once again. Hoorah for crafty cleverness!
With the beautiful Spring weather, I'm looking forward to wearing it out and about on my coffee runs.
Happy Sunday, everyone!

sinnlighet: Thank you so much! So nice to meet you! :)
sMacThoughts: Thanks, my dear! It's so nice to have a wearable skirt again.
What a good idea! I have a skirt from anthropologie from a few years ago that has circles with raw edges sewn around the hem. Your skirt reminds me of it!
Thanks, Sarah! It was remarkably easy and quick to do--even for a sewing klutz like myself. :)
probably looks cooler now than it did before. So you see, you were meant to drip window paint on it. :P
Rachel, good thinking. It was meant to be.
OH! what a perfectly magical idea! :) I have ever so many paint spattered articles of clothing! tee hee!
Happy weekend to You!!
