easter & a mini road trip
I like easter. I like to sit outside and eat lamb with mint jelly. I like to watch Espen hunt for eggs. I like the weather. Last easter I got sick and ended up throwing up while my dad was over after dinner trying to help me hang a headboard I made while Jeremy was in CA. This year I was healthy, happy and had a great day with my family and a fun night in Tucson with Jeremy.

rising of the setting sun
I picked up my print that I had framed of Wayne Pate's Rising of the Setting Sun yesterday.
I opted not to use any matte and was a bit nervous about how much of the art the frame would cover and although it does cover up the edges including the big yellow sun there is something about the way the black circles blend into the black inner frame that adds just the slightest bit of added depth to it. I think it turned out beautiful.

phoenix in the mailbox
I am super excited! My beautiful Phoenix print from The Heads of State came in the mail yesterday and it is amazing!!

I know it deserves a proper frame but when I look at it my first reaction is to grab some red thumb-tacks and just pin it to the wall. I don't think I could ever stick little holes in it so it will sit in it's tube till the perfect framing opportunity comes along.
The perfect framing opportunity has come along for another wonderful print that I have been dying to hang up since my mom got it for me for my birthday early this year...

I have been waiting for Michael's elusive 60% off coupon. I get 40% & 50% all the time, but, I knew there was a 60% one that pops up every once and a while. Well, it finally came in the mail today. Now, I have a gift card for Aaron Brother’s, not Michaels, but I called Aaron's the other day and they told me that since they are owned by the same company they will honor the other one's offer. What?? I am going to run down to Michael's on Saturday and get a quote and then hop on over to Aaron Brother’s and get this puppy framed! Nothin' fancy, just a super simple frame, maybe a matte. We'll see. Either way, I can't wait to get this one up in our house.
