Today and Me = a boxing match.

Thursday, February 18th, 2010

This is a fierce one: the calm, grounded, happy me on one side battling it out with the tear-through-the-studio-leave-everything-in-my-wake-turned-upside-down terror on the other.   It’s amazing.

Found these items on Etsy to help express how I’m feeling:

These Vintage Boxers from Xander Graphics

The Fighter, by Tony A Engel

Cat Fight Buckle by Alaska Gadgetry

Toilet Fighting = funny

Bears Fighting, by Dan Bob Thompson

With that, I better get on with this battle, so I might actually get some work done today.  yikes!

I’m in the thick of it.  I’m also fighting a cold.  Why does that happen??  this is what I looked like yesterday: awesome.

(this from my home botox kit.)

hehehe…JK!!  amazing, home botox kits—what the!?  my beautifully plump lips come from a natural chapped and full-on nose blowing state.  Luckily, this one is going fast.  I’m much better today.  by Sunday, I should be back in top form.

If you’re in or near Portland on Sunday, you MUST come to Crafty Wonderland.  Some of my all time favorite crafters and artists will be there.  It is absolutey not to be missed. check out the deets below:

Our booth will be OFF. THE. HOOK.  My assistant, Lupe, has been working her tail off to make our CRAFTY booth an atmosphere you won’t forget.  Also, the amazingly stylish Courtney from kelly + olive put in some time to give me her incomparable opinion on the endless possibilities with booth decor.  It’s gonna rock, y’all.

More on my life and love and warm fuzzy thoughts when the holidays end and I become a normal person again.  I am SO grateful to all of you for your support, kindness, generosity, and invigorating enthusiasm over b & i…hands down, would not be doing this without you.  thank you.  from the bottom of my heart.

big huge weekend love,

betsy

***Song of the Moment: Summer Love, by Justin Timberlake***  (that’s right, I said it.  I NEEDED justin this week.  I’m not afraid (okay, maybe just a little) to admit I’ve been listening to this buoyant, upbeat, sexy album all week.  boo. yah.)

For the Absentees: the newness abounds

The following are available exclusively at Radish Underground for the month of December.  HOWEVER, I love them so much that I’m making variations for my own shop and upcoming shows.  And I look forward to expanding this Old Turns New line.  Please email if you’re dying for one of them and want something special.  I love custom work.
