3 things about me....

 I have a small but, growing ugly doll collection.  It has become a go to gift for my hubby and I love that he goes into a toy store and brings home one of these fine fellas for a holiday.

 

 I love Indianapolis.  It may not be the best, biggest city but, it's where I live.  There have been times in my life that I have been involved and active going to events and openings.  Right now I'm not doing that but, when the time comes it will be here for me. 

I had a friend buy a deer head for me years and years ago at an auction.  When I was dating Ed his brother in law was at my house and he asked me "Jenny, did you kill it?"  Makes me laugh.  They live out in the country and I guess it could be possible that I would sit in a tree and hunt.  But, this gal doesn't hunt.  I got it so I could decorate it.  This guy is going to get in the Christmas spirit real soon.  

3 things about me

 

 

On facebook right now everyone is asking each other to tell things about themselves so I thought I would share here...

 

 I love, love, love black and white.  Of late it has become the rage and I have to say it has made me very happy.  I bought these bowls (3 of them) years ago and again...love them. 

 This is my front door.  I only feel truly at home living in an old house....I also, have a thing about safety and I check and double check my locks and leave my lights on outside etc.  When you live in an urban setting for 20 plus years you learn...love my hood!

I made this doll some time ago.  Actually I made 3 (sold 2) and I kept her.  They were to represent my great-great aunts who all wore pearls and had snow white hair.  Great little snippets of childhood memories.    She has feather wings and twig legs that go into the ground to represent my roots. (Deep) One of my favorite creations.
