Sandy lived in Wisconsin and I'm pretty sure if that gal keeps researching my family genealogy she's going to find out that we are related! My recent trip to Arizona included an absolutely delightful morning spent in Sandy's craft room. It's a cheery, colorful explosion of ADORABLE! Yellow and red pops of fun and supplies to make any one of us marvel! Organized binders of graphics, cute little vignettes and in the middle of it all: Sandy!
Rainbow displays abound and my eyes just couldn't take it all in; I had to look at one vignette, then (like a gorgeous vintage store) physically move and look at the next area.
Gifts and trades and ETSY shopping to delight the eye in every niche made me so jealous....um, I mean, made me aware of how fabulous our "Imaginary Friends" are in their generosity and creativity!
The house in Arizona (that makes me think that I too, might just like to retire in that VALLEY OF THE SUN) is decorated with adorable vintage finds, shelves of sweet memories and best of all, it includes our FUN FRIEND, Miss Sandy. There was much more but I'm pretty sure if you post a picture of someone's bathroom you need a photographic release...smile. Thanks Sandy Dahling for letting me me see your play room and for all the goodies you filled my suitcase with.
Did you ever have a vacation that felt more like visiting relatives (that you love) ?!?
Next stop: ImagiMeri's Studio!!! Stay tuned!
How wonderful. The bathroom comment made me laugh b/c a friend of mine just took a trip and she photographed part of the bathroom in a very ornate and costly historical site she was at b/c it was so luxurious! She thought it was funny to do it but she couldn't help herself. Glad to hear your trip was such a great experience. Can't wait to see your next pics.
ReplyDeleteI think I want to go south too, Tammy. Love the colorful photos!
ReplyDeleteHow delightful. It sounds like you really did have the perfect trip. I'm so glad you were able to play and explore Sandy's home.
ReplyDeleteTammy,

ReplyDeleteOh my! How fun for you to visit with these amazing women! I would love to see their craft rooms!
ReplyDeleteSo Fun! Lucky, Lucky you!!
ReplyDeleteI was on the road when you posted this...and Meri's studio. I envy gregarious, social gals like you, Tammy. I have a hard time in certain social situations...like meeting new people. But I have so enjoyed you visit with Sandy and Meri...and even your teacher. I guess I like to do things vicariously sometimes...lol! But I am home now. The Grand Canyon was perfect weather...cool, sunny and no wind! I will write about it in a few days!
ReplyDeleteWhat fun visits to both of these bloggers creative spaces. It makes me feel inspired to create something. Now, if only I had that imagination gene that all of you seem to have, but I missed. laurie
ReplyDeleteSuch fun to meet a friend in person - and then to get to see all that wonderful crafty "stuff" too!
