In just a little more than a week, I will be setting up my booth at Paradise City Art Festival in Marlborough MA! If you are planning to go, here is a link to get a ticket discount. Right now I am working on Tiny Worlds.

The last 2 for now are 2 lighthouses.

The ocean and snowy tiny worlds are rarer because I have to find the right kind of cup to put them in. Somehow, flower designs don’t work for me and they are what I find most when I am in the thrift store.

A bright yellow house. It is fun to use the same cup and using the colors of the decoration, come up with a variety of designs.

This Tiny World is made on a lovely cup with Paul Revere’s historic ride.

Another tea cup with violets.

And a mid-century Modern cup and saucer, made in Germany and found in a thrift shop.

I am working hard to have a good selection of my work for the Smithsonian Show. I will be at the opening gala in less than 3 weeks! Because I am so focused on getting ready for the show, I won’t be putting anything new into my Etsy shop until May 1.

Tiny World 1

I went to a tag sale at a church in my neighborhood and someone had apparently donated their collection of violet decorated teacups. You will be seeing several pincushions ahead with violets!

Tiny World 2

This one is bigger than the cups- a bigger house and more trees too. It’s a little house in the woods. In a beautiful Portuguese bowl.

And here is a better photo of the front of the bowl-

Two more flowery cups.

This one is flowers, mid-century modern.

This one, classic transfer ware.

Two lighthouse cups.
