October 8, 2008 1:19 pm News, gallery, works
Sometimes a “grown-up” just wants to remember being a kid. Perhaps it’s because of the days we have been living in - I’m not sure, but like you, I find my mind wandering back to “the good old days.” And that’s where these ideas came from - kids playing, a treehouse - every kid must have dreamt about or actually did have one to play in.
I’ve spent the last several days lost in the treehouse mode and will be taking these two to The Highland’s Show on Saturday, October llth and/or Marist Holiday Traditions on November 1. You’ll also find one of this style at Gravy - Downtown Brevard, NC, Transylvania County. Karen Dittman American Folk Art.
Come see me at one of these places and see what else I came up with to brighten up your home - these days have made many of us feel the urge to feather our nest and hunker down surrounded by the things we love most and the things that make us feel secure again.
There’s no place like home. And home is where we retreat from the world outside.
