House Party

Because we were in the car for a few hours I was able to prep a couple of house blocks to work on. The bluebird house on the left is new and the bottom right "Retro Metro" is almost done. Just a couple more purple flowers....or are they branches??? These have been a joy to work on!!


We were in a little town and this house was rising above all the others. It was cool and kind of reminded me of my house blocks.

Speaking of purple flowers...we saw this wonderful field on our way home. I'm pretty sure they are weeds but it looked too nice not to snap a photo.
