february blahs

It's been a while since I updated, I know. Sorry 'bout that. I've had a touch of the winter blues and just haven't been that productive. I'm turning things around today, though. I made a series of really fun bags out of skirts, keeping as much as possible of the original design detail in tact - so they've still got zippers and buttons and pockets and pleats. They're not quite done yet, but photo evidence of their existence will be along shortly.

I've also set up meetings, updated fivesurprises.com, blogged, AND taken time to look after myself and my space; today has been full of small victories.

I went looking for something spring-like to cheer us up as we ponder the expanse of February lying before us... I'm not going to try to argue that this brings to mind tulips and dewy meadows, but I keep running across this Etsy seller, Urban Heirlooms, and I think it's pretty rockin'.
