Mid Act
Well, this past week has left me feeling like I have been caught mid-act! I can see the bar I need to grab and I am reaching out for it and going to hold on tight as I swing into week 2. I have been busy every day tidying, organizing, assisting the department and finding new things to catalogue that I plan to photograph.
One of my faves this week was a something I spied behind the door of a colleagues room. It was a commissioned piece she created out of an old book for a library. It was beautifully done and the way it was imagined and executed left me feeling like Alice about to tumble down into the "rabbit hole" of this book. This is a work of art that will feature on In the Art Cupboard and she has kindly agreed to let me discuss her work in a blog piece here on Jenny Wren's, which I plan to do in the near future.
The gentle jazz crooning of Nat King Cole's "Your Nobody till Somebody Loves You" is beckoning me into the kitchen to dance with Mr. Michie, while we make dinner and enjoy the last lingering drops of sunshine as evening falls...
P.S. I bought my first Fall item this weekend. A little pumpkin trick-or-treat bucket to put on my desk and fill with candy for my cupboard visitors, I can't wait for October!
