I wish these two outfits came in my size.  I love this look..............too cute for such sad faces!

This would be great with a spot of red, maybe the bow on the scarf.

Eco Craft

I checked out a fun book at the library called eco craft.  I've read several "green" craft books, but this one is by far my favorite.

The projects in this book are really beautiful when finished. 
Light fixture made from plastic grocery bags.

Several six-packs of beer later will leave you with lattice for your screen!

A tote made from your favorite coffee bags. Everything would smell like coffee but we are from Seattle aren't we?
My favorite.....light fixtures made from milk jugs!

So many projects, so little time.  What I know for sure.....I can repaint the glass bottles shown on the front of the book cover.

My New Favorite Find

This is my new favorite gift to give the little people in my life. Check out Eco-kids paint, play dough and other fun creative tools. ecokidsusa.com. is a great site to check out.  I won't retell their story, I will let you read for yourselves. With natural extracts from sweet potatoes, paprika and blueberries it's almost good enough to eat.  Along with the fact that it is a safe product to play with, I love to discover business owners passionate about what they do. I'm a sucker for great packaging also!

PANTONE revealed their new color of the year..........Honeysuckle!  I'm already incorporating this color into new projects.  The name of my art studio "A Spot of Color" was creating because of colors like honeysuckle.  Neutrals with a SPOT of your favorite color enhances and makes a statement
