art-space and light

It's not too late to see the 'threaded' show.
Art and Light will be open Saturday from 10-5.
Here's a little peek of some of Kina's fantastic work at A&L.

And...

A new show opened today at the upstairs [artspace].
Abstract and colorful.

Hope your weekend is full of happy!

Just look at this cool pic found on one of my fav blogs today.
My lovely Barb not only finds the coolest things...she puts those things together beautifully.
Wingo on knack....love it!
Hop on over to knack to read about these necklaces and a sweet sweet daughter.
(BB-thank you for including wingo in your triple threat!)

textiles

Tonight is First Friday and the Flatiron Studio has a fantastic show in store for all of us! Celebrating the rich history of textiles in the south, the theme of the show is "threaded".

I made some new pieces for Art and Light inspired by weaves/textures/plaids. My dear friend Laurie made new/vintage collage story boxes for Knack. Our friend Kina has sweet modern crocheted goodies, Michelle has new jewelry AND new/vintage/cool tees and Kyle has new Famsters and paintings...and the list goes on and on.

There really are too many wonderful things to tell you about. You better just get yourself to the Pendleton Street Arts District tonight from 6-9 and Saturday from 10-3.

For fun photos of the "threaded" collection, check out my favorite blogs:

Sometimes you come across something so wonderful
that it must be shared...immediately.
Did you know that B&J now makes Cherry Garcia in a frozen yogurt?!?
That's right...Cherry Garcia with a fraction of the fat and calories.
enJOY!
and have a great weekend!

yes, we're smart!

CAROMI
A gem of a place located between Tryon and Saluda, NC.
They have a limited menu that never changes but is always good.
They serve RC and the best green beans ever.
They are only open for supper Wednesday through Saturday.
If you go on Friday or Saturday you'll likely wait an hour to be seated.
If you are lucky...you'll find an empty rocking chair on the porch overlooking the river.
If you are smart...you'll go on Wednesday.

sunday in the garden

Mr. Bull decided it might be a little greener on our side of the fence.

Can hardly blame him....summer tomatoes sure are tasty.
