Flour Vintage Container

Joining Sunday Sketches with my latest entry for the Sketchbook Project 2012.

My theme is Encyclopedia of ... and I am including sketches of things I and my family collect along with thoughts about these collections.

The first sketchbook I sent in was with my originals.  This time I'm keeping the originals and printing the scanned drawings onto the sketchbook pages then adding color.

This is very sweet, Juana... I like seeing your handwriting... and the added pink tugs at the heart. Yes, what was in the flour container, anything? I like containers like these. I suppose I like outer orderliness... that maybe it might inspire some inner collectedness. ;o) Happy Week, Juana ((HUGS))
These are great! I love them and adore vintage containers like these as well. LOVE going to the local flea markets to see what I can find. :)

Thank you for joining us again. Hugs

Married Shadows

My husband and I haven't had a T.V. for the last 15 years, maybe more, so we often go to see movies at the Cinema. The last couple of ones that I've enjoyed have been Transformers II and Terminator IV. Two more of my favorites are Slumdog Millionare and Milk. These latter two were well done movies from all angles (acting, script, cinematography). This is us after an afternoon at the movies and eating out. We had just come from Starbucks and were heading to the train station. For more shadow shots and to learn how to join this Meme, please visit Hey Harriet's blog .
