Project 365 Week Sixteen and We've Got Orange!!!

The entryway painting project is finished! I am so happy with it! Michael did a beautiful job - check it out...and here is the view from the livingroom...


Alrighty - so, on to week Sixteen of Project 365!

Monday, April 13: Love is in the air! Two squirrel friends were romping in the yard today - one black and one grey...
this will go in a journaling spot pocket...

Tuesday, April 14: I came across these two little entrepreneurs during my daily travels for work. They reminded me of me and my funny face stand when I was their age, so I had to stop. I asked them if they were brothers, and they told me that not only were they brothers but "we are twins and we are living the sweeet life!" How cute is that?!!! I picked up a lovely copy of Beatrix Potter for $1, and (with their dad's permission) I took their photo. Thanks for the day brightener guys!

Wednesday, April 15: A goose in flight over the neighborhood pond.

Thursday, April 16: The treasure I found at the Stillwater Goodwill yesterday. I used to love Trixie Belden books, and this is the first in the series! It was only 15 cents and it will make a great art journal (after I read it!)

Friday, April 17: A new layout...

Saturday, April 18: Hail, hail, the gang's all here! Jess, Karla, Lynn, Christina and me at the 16-hour crop.
Sunday, April 19: One of the layouts I made at yesterday's crop...
and here is how the layout turned out (click to see more details)...

Have a beautiful Sunday my friends!

Uhhhmmm, I kinda love your entryway in orange... I still wouldn't do it myself though... but that's because orange is "the colour of the Dutch" (Queen) You'll find more about that on my blog soon ('cause thursday = queensday) but look at this for a first impression....

omg....reading about those twins with the book sale stand just brightened my day! what a neat idea, and how sweet of you to stop!
i also love how you asked to take their picture- even though i'm doing project 365, i'm still having to work on getting out of my comfort zone and take pictures in public, and asking people if i can take them.

I had not heard of that book before. Those twins were just too cute. Hope they made a lot of money.
