I'm a 27 year old mother, wife, and lover of pretty things. I love to create, though I don't really create as often as I'd like. I have a strong love for vintage items, and I'm all about recycling. Altering is an obsession for me. My friends always ask me when I'm going to "anne-i-fy " the new things I bring home from the thrift store. I wash dishes three days a week at a Tea House in the middle of an Antique town. Most days I'd rather just go look at the antiques, but I do enjoy my job. The rest of the time I'm at home with my three year old, who is my biggest inspiration of all. I dream of one day sitting in my own studio, listening to blugrass music, and making art all day long.

I'm drawn to so many of your photos on Flickr. If I add you as a contact, it's because I generally love your photos, whether they are of your artwork, your every day life, or just wonderful photography. I'm not much of a photographer myself, and I mostly take pictures of my munchkin, so I understand if you don't add me back. But you should take it as a compliment, and know that I am so happy to find inspiration through sitting and staring at my computer screen. Oh, and I'm always happy to make new friends!

Your Psyche is Blue

You are deeply emotional and very connected to everything (and everyone) around you.

By simply understanding other people, you are able to help them heal and let go.

While you are a very deep and thoughtful person, you do have a very silly, superficial side.

When you are too blue: the weight of the world's problems hangs over you

When you don't have enough blue: you lack perspective and understanding
