Projects galore!







I just know if I were at home on a daily basis I would NEVER run out of things to get done. We've continued to haul rock... all 36,400 pounds (3 elephants in weight). I bought a bench and headboard and did a mini project to make the front bench. I've officially started my business through the state called Chrysma Artistry, I've started teaching classes from home. This week we'll be kidnapping our friends baby (totally excited!). I've sold lots on Craigslist, socialized with friends, read a book, completed two pictures (well almost) worked in the studio, attempted an art sale from our house and began planning for the next school year (cue slight moan). It's been busy. Leo has been working away at school with fundraising and administration stuff. We've been swimming together at the pool and hauling more rock! We sleep well at night! So there's a little insight in our doings lately.

You can kinda see the bench finished in the front there. My friend and I mosaic-ed it with red marble and then I hung a wire cast iron star on the back. It really is beautiful.

It looks fantastic!!! The whole yard looks bigger and for sure a whole lot easier to take care of. The bench is beautiful and just perfect. You may need a gnome hiding somewhere in the yard but other then that it is perfect. All the hard work really amounted to something very nice. As always...proud of you both!

Oh, I see you are at least prepared for a gnome with that cute gnome chair. Maybe you could get Chrysma Artistry to make you one holding a sign for Chrysma Artistery.
The stone on the bench is perfect with the star. Do you need me to go get you another star like it to put back on your porch wall? In the first picture I missed the red balls on the top of the post. I like that last touch. Very, very nice and engaging landscape. 2thumbs-up.
