Hobby Lobby , Why you so Awesome?

 I thought I would also post this cool Hobby Lobby find.. I love Hobby Lobby, I have heard people complain about how they don't have good paint and what not compared to other hobby stores. I guess they don't carry golden and some other really good brands but whatever, I could stay in there all day.

Behold , I found a Portal !


   Ok so it is not so magical right now but I thought this was so super cool , maybe it's nothing new but I have never seen fairy doors there before. So I snagged one ... I gotta paint this mug , put some moss on it and hang it on the wall in my art room . Should be a fun project , I'll post it when I'm done.

 While we are talking about  things to hang on the wall , I also found another neat little door in the clearance section at a gift shop downtown, they had some really pretty cards in there too , I purchased a few of those and made some nice wall hangings (also for my art room) with them. This card in particular I loved because of the owl. I don't know what my obsession with owls is all about but I have obtained a ridiculous amount of owl paraphernalia. I just love them , they are beautiful. In fact I am planning on getting a barn owl tattoo very soon. A mama barn owl with two baby barn owls . It's gonna be SWEET.

                                   
  YAY pretty things!  the other card I put in a shadow box . I don't  know who the card artist is cause I cut them all up... sorry greeting cards you are now wall art . "Great Minds Think Alike "  I like this one a lot . It reminds me that ideas are worth sharing and it is ok to be inspired by other people and that nothing is ever really truly original. Your ideas came from somewhere .You ever feel like every idea you have ever had , most of the time you find that someone has  already thought of it ,done it, said it ?  Or you look at a painting,  hear a song  and feel like it could have come out of you?  There is most likely always someone out there thinking similar ideas that you are right now .I like the thought of that , and being inspired to learn from other people instead of feeling like , Oh man, I could never be that good at something.
