I know, I am a "bad" blogger, but time just seems to be slippin' by! Today was one of those gorgeous Southern CA days. Sunny, slight breeze, warm, but not too hot! I had planned on spending the day working on swaps that I need to get completed, but it was just too pretty outside, not to spend a good share of the day enjoying our new fountain in the backyard. I just LOVE sitting outside, hearing the sound of water trickling down....and of course, I had to carefully listen to each and every fountain before choosing this one. The water sound reminds me of rain, which we don't get enough of lately!
Anyway, thank you for allowing to share my new water feature. I'll try to get a picture later at nightime, as it is breathtaking at night with the lights coming from inside the bowl! Well, I did manage to finish up and package two swaps. One for Kim Caldwell's event this next weekend and the Winter Banner for Silver Bella. I can't show you the complete projects, but here are a couple of sneak peeks!
For those of you Design Star fans, I was a little disappointed that Dan didn't win tonight, but Antonio is definitely "one of a kind" and will probably be very successful with his new show. He kind of reminds me of Guy Fierre of Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives.
I'm very much looking forward to Michelle's visit this coming weekend....she will be staying with me at Chateau Stoneham while we both attend the upcoming Artistic Affaire L'Automne. Stay tuned next week for pictures from the weekend!
