I love this photograph. The ladies are slip-casting porcelain dolls.

of these sofas! I just sold my [uncomfortable] couch, that I bought brand new less than a year ago. It was so uncomfortable! I suppose that is what I deserve for buying a sofa online, instead of testing it out myself. These couches and chairs from Spruce Home on Etsy are so beautiful I could care less about how comfortable they are…

I am so tired of moving, but I must say, it is a good time for me to get all of my life in order and reorganized. As crazy and stressful as moving can be, I do love setting up all of my things and making my ‘place’ my ‘home’. And its been a crazy few months here so right now my closet(s), dresser drawers, kitchen cabinets and every possible corner of space is overflowing with complete chaos! So its about time for some re-organization. Its going to feel good, but it is going to be a lot of work!

It isn’t just my homelife that needs some organization and control. It has spread to all areas- studio, work, social life, etc…Right now my studio is spread out in several areas and in a week it will all be consolidated to one amazing spot. I can’t wait to start working over at the Clay Cellar. 

I hate it when I don’t have a good picture to share, but I really just don’t have a good picture to share. My brain is as unorganized as my life right now! Hopeful that things will be back to ‘normal’ in just a few days. 

I know one thing about my personality, and that is I struggle with change! Good or bad, it really doesn’t matter, I struggle. So I’m going through all these changes these days. The stress level is rising slightly but I do have things under control [i think!]. However, it is making me into this mushy-gushy, crazy-lady, worry-wart. I think I’m driving Luke a little bit crazy. Poor guy. 

I have 3 more days in my current apartment. Not quite packed yet, seeing as how I spent last weekend in Western Kansas for my cousin’s wedding. But I’m getting there. I plan on making some progress tonight.  I mean, I’m literally just moving UP the stairs into the upstairs of my current house, so how hard can it be?? I can just throw stuff into a box and call it good…

[MENTAL NOTE: GET BOXES.]

I’m starting a new job too. A couple of new jobs. I am beyond excited for both, but it is still a difficult transition. New classes are starting too. It is going to be great to challenge myself as an artist again. Something that hasn’t happened in almost a year. Which is sad to me. But obviously I’m doing something to change that, so why be sad?!

So things are fine, really. But whoa…change.

I could kiss him 1,000 times a day and stare at him for hours and it wouldn’t be enough.

Caroline Swift’s work really inspires me. Not only her ceramic and glass artwork, but the photographs themselves. All of it—its just beautiful.

Did I mention I am ready for fall?? It is way too hot. But I got a really beautiful dress yesterday for my cousin’s wedding this weekend. I can’t wait to wear it!
