Paperbox Memories...

My Godfather, who just happens to be my favorite uncle, just sent me this delightful photo of me when I was about four or so in Denmark.  I had very few toys back then, living a gypsy lifestyle, so joy was found in the simplest of things! He remembers, as I do, the total delight and bliss I had playing in big paper boxes - how I long for those days again...

January Fairytale...

Life has been so full lately that time seems to blur... How I wish I could step into a fairytale and believe that everything ends good...

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Christmas At The Castle!

The Castle elves have been busy as ever this year, and the Castle is now wearing its full Holiday Regalia!  Do come and visit us...  (more photos soon)

Haunted Skeleton Nichos...

Here are the class samples for next Wednesdays (October 19, 2011) "Haunted Skeleton Nicho" class.  I was inspired by my own antique Mexican Nicho (see last photo).  These are constructed from old cigar boxes, layered with wonderful papers that the Castle is known for.  The inside will feature a dressed skeleton and waxed flowers.  There are still a few spots left, if you are interested, please call (510) 204-9801 for more information or to reserve a spot.  

 

Grimoire Of Grace...

I've started a new tumbler account filled with the little things that give us joy.  Called 'Grimoire of Grace' I hope its magic filled pages will inspire simple pleasures in your day to day...

IPhone Love...

Who knew a phone could be so addictive???  I've been playing with 'Hipstamatic' and 'Instagram' on my Iphone.  But the best $1.99 I've spent in a long long time has been on '8mm' a video app that lets you film in a look reminiscent of the 1920's... Now to figure out how to load it onto a computer...

Sunday Smiles!
