"CABIN FEVER" EVEN IN FLORIDA

Experiencing a touch of cabin fever
I know it could be worse, I could be shoveling snow
but a little Spring Weather Please!
This is what happens in the studio
when I spend to much time inside
Projects start multiplying
Garconne Girls, waiting for paper clay

Paper Clay dolls for my Dollhouse

and some satin bloomer girls
waiting for frocks

Faeries in Wonderland
wanting to get outside
and flit around in their lovely hats

I'm wishing for Spring

DOLL HOUSE STORIES

Doll House Updates

I have spent several weeks painting the roof
it took 4 coats of green acrylic to finally get the color
I was dreaming of
Living in Florida the tropical climate slows down the drying process
So it has been slow going

The surfaces are horrible, I don't believe I have ever painted anything this old
In my younger years I painted lots of old apartments and furniture
but nothing like this!
I finally found something to do with that bottle of Gesso,
I mixed it with acrylic color and painted the outside walls, good primer, sealer, and it has smoothed everything out

I'm sure the outside will be a 4 coater too!
Back in the 1930's people used whatever was laying around
I've noticed the shutters are scrape wood and several are pieced together
a crackle paint job may be the only solution

meanwhile up in the Attic the Ghosts are sweeping today
trying to keep tidy

time to take a little break from the dust and paint
and go outside and visit with the neighbors!

ONE WORLD ONE HEART 2010 MAGIC CARPET RIDE

GENIES AND WISHES
So glad to be participating in the OWOH Event
I had so much fun last year, glad to be back!
I needed a Magic Carpet
off I went to see the Treasure Hunter
in her shop I knew I would find the perfect ride

While hunting I spied a magnificent Genie Lamp

I gently picked it up and took into the light

I wonder if I rub the lamp, what would happen?

I rubbed and took the glass cork off

Puffs of smoke blasted out of the bottle
and a golden haired Genie appeared

and another

the shop was becoming smoky

Genies where everywhere!

I counted four beautiful Genies
and they sang you may have three wishes!

what else would Kaerie Faerie wish for?
"Fairies"

in bursts of pink and yellow sparkle magic

and blue sparkle
tiny faeries appeared

with my three wishes granted

the four lovely Genies started to jump back into their
bottle

the purple haired Genie spotted the perfect
carpet for riding

hold on tight and have a wonderful ride

Happiness

Love

Tranquility

these three tiny wish faeries
will be my give-away
leave a comment with your name and e-mail
and I'll put it in the Magic Bottle

I will open the Genie Bottle Feb. 14th at Midnight
and the Genies will hand me three lucky
winners!
My give-away is open to everyone
I'm off to ride my Carpet
and all the fabulous adventures I will have
at the One World One Heart 2010
Blog Event!
