hobby season.

Everyone has a favorite time of year. I have several. But the one I'm REALLY looking forward to this year is "hobby season." Hobby season follows busy season. When my work finally slows down and I start going home at 5pm like normal people do then hobby season officially commences. And I can finally do all the projects and outings I've been thinking about for 3 months. These two projects are first in line for hobby season this year:


this color collage is so neat. its just a lot of things of the same color on paper. nothing difficult. but really cool end result. (pretty sure this came from design sponge)

Second, is this fabulous doily pillow. so sweet. (sorry I can't find the original source)


the list is expanding rapidly, I hope April comes soon!

back.

i had to take a small blogging hiatus...okay it wasn't that small. but I'm back. suffice it to say working sun up to sun down and every minute in between and thereafter is not condusive to keeping up a blogging hobby. nevertheless.



meet my new favorite color. ruby red. I've always thought of it as rust. the common person may call it orange. but at the end of the day its still my favorite. I've been begging my husband to paint me something using this color to put on my wall. I've yet to find any success in this endeavor but I'm holding out hope. maybe for my upcoming birthday? good idea, no?
