the chairs

I have lots to say about where I got these amazing chairs.  Im not ready to yet though.    This photo would look much better if I had a screen to filter the sun a little.   Oh yeah and a way better camera.  Thats fine though.   I am loving the summer.

Tula has always layed on whatever Im working on.

I found a yellow envelope in my car this morning with a note written on it and a photo inside.   I was next instructed to check the mailbox.

its hard to chew a towel

So, if you dont know we have FOUR doggies:

1. Tula (papillion- big ears)

2. Lilu  (hound mix – looks like a doe)

3. Sammy (white mini schnauzer- like a lamb)

4.  Reuben (chocolate lab pit mix- sweet bear)

Anyway, we have a stash of towels that drive me crazy because I know they’ve been used to dry the dogs off, wipe dirty feet, etc.  I dont want to use these towels on my body.  I went and got 3 cozy white human only towels the other day and I was trying to figure out what to do with the retired towels.  Hmmmmmm, “ive been wanting to make some dog beds lately, I have good dye colors, towels would be hard to chew…”  So, there it is.    So far, Sammy and Tula have been good models.

my grandmother had a beauty shop

This hair dryer chair still works!!  It blocks out sound around you and  you cant hear much.   Its like your in some kind of time machine or meditation seat.   My grandmother, Mary Ellen, did hair and Ive been told this was her first hair dryer.  Years later she gave it to my other grandmother who is named Francis, so she could dry her hair at home.    I got it from her basement a few years ago.

I just finished this new bag in the seat.  Its in my etsy store.   Im basically building inventory for some trunk shows in the fall.
