Camera Dump

 This picture has nothing to do with anything other than it is about the only spot in the art room that I would dare show you.  I envy those bloggers who show studios that are curated and decorated with pretty little vignettes.  We flipped a circuit breaker the other day so Husband had to move a bunch of my junk precious treasures to get to the panel box and it is all still heaped on the floor.  I just have pig piles of chaos waiting for my attention.

 This old wooden dough bowl is a favorite recent find.  The black blob inside it is a hat.  I still haven't gotten around to taking the camera in for a check-up.  I don't think the folk art cow is old because it has a label on the belly that says "Beaches".  I haven't gotten anywhere trying to research it because Google finds everything Beaches except what I am looking for. He is missing an ear but I liked the look so picked it up anyway.  Yes, I bought a cow with one ear.

 There is still no shortage of Christmas to be found.  The coloring book has wonderful pictures inside and is unused.

 I was smitten with the wax baby Jesus in this candle.  Oops, I should have cropped out the forbidden plain round Shiny Brite.  At least it is pink.

 I don't think these ornaments are old but I think they are sort of wonderful.

 Another favorite recent find is the old Juice-O-Matic in my favorite Grandma Green.  The round thing in the upper right is a chimney flue cover.

 If you follow me on Instagram then you have already seen the juicer, along with the next three finds.

 Chippy chalkware Madonna.  I picked up the upholstery fabric in the back thinking I would like it better than what I put on my kitchen chairs but now I'm thinking it is probably too thick for the corners.  I adore the pattern so it will stay around and wait to be the perfect thing.

 These darling angels are marked Italy.  They don't necessarily scream Christmas at me so I think I might just let them hang out with me for a while.

THIS is what has been impeding my progress on cleaning up the art room.  I found two big boxes of these horse ribbons and have been working on listing them in my Etsy.  I have sold almost a hundred of them already and I am down to just one more lot to list.  When I brought them home my room smelled like a barn for two days.  A stiff brush and some Febreez works wonders.
For those of you up there in the frozen Northeast, snuggle down and take good care!!
