some things I love

If you have followed this blog for very long you know I love to share things that I find and truly endorse.  Here are my latest finds:

Bunny's Bath products

I am a huge fan of all Bunny's Bath products - These are handmade bath and body care products made here locally - The woman who created this line was a chemist for 25 years - now she uses that knowledge to create some of the most delicious products I've ever used.  They are pure and the price is so right!!  The Body Polish makes your skin feel like it does after a body massage.  If this sounds interesting to you can go here.

Honey House Naturals

Over a year ago I was given a little Christmas gift from my framer.  It was two little tins of hand cream and lip balm.  They were great to drop in my purse and I started using them whenever I was out and about, especially the hand cream after working in the studio all afternoon.  Then I ran out.  So I just went back to what I had been using and noticed a difference almost immediately.  Man I got online and ordered doubles and in larger sizes.  This stuff is yummy!!  If you are interested go here

free people shoes

Well just let me tell you!! Since I have succumbed to my body going sideways on me, shoes have become a challenge!! Remember when I was all feeling sorry for myself when I had to get rid of all the shoes I had collected for almost 35years? Yah, well still feeling a little bit sad about that, however, I said, "Jeane! just get over it and find things you can wear".  Well I found some - I won't go into all the things that I now have to look for in a shoe/boot, well yah, a little - they now have to be lace up the front and low heeled - and a bunch of other things, but anyway, Free People filled the bill with these two pair of shoes!!  Both these pair were wearable right out of the box!! For my money they have the most interesting shoes out there!! If you want to check them out go here

iphone 5S

 

yah, I got my new phone - I had been driving an iphone 4 for the past 2 years and really wanted what the new phones were offering - okay, first of all, I didn't fall in love with this phone right out of the gate.  I had been using the new ios7 for awhile on my ipad, so that was okay - I had never had a lock on my old phone, so the fingerprint thingy was a bit hard to get use to and  I'm still finding my way around that - it doesn't like my thumb prints as much as just my index finger - many times I just slide the damn thing, and use my code to unlock - that aside, I love having siri - she and I got along right away!! I like the drop down event thingy and the control center!! and a bunch of other stuff - I did a day of Nike Fuel with their new app - interesting but I don't want my phone stuck to me that much - anyway I'm very glad I got this model.  And I got the brightest cover I could find - in real life it is day glow coral!! This way I can find it in my purse, see it on my work shelf, among my clutter at the studio, etc.  You know where to go if you are interested!!

Okay, there are some more things that I will save for another post - and for the art part, here is a detail of a painting that I've been working on -

I'll be back later in the week with some new work!!
