I bought a month of internet and paid some bills today.

Yesterday was my spendy day. I went to a holiday craft fair. I found an artist that uses eggshells in her paintings to create dimension. A bonus is that she's family. Her partner was there, helping her with sales. I had to support her. The work was good and I wound up with a great shadow box painting of an owl. I might name him Barnaby. I haven't decided yet.

I also got a cedar robot, a painted and resin-ed large seashell with a positive mantra painted on it in the style of Kelly Rae Roberts, a framed piece of art using watercolor paints on sea glass and rocks to create little birds of all colors on the seashore and also a greeting card print from the same artist.

I spoke with a vendor about a custom piece using laser cut plywood in a layered piece where each piece is a different color. It creates dimension and just looks really cool. The vendor had a mandala, which was nice, and several unicorns. Some in the style of MLP but the one I liked was more like a carousel horse that just happened to be a unicorn. I just wasn't a fan of the colors in the combination he used but he's open to designing a custom piece for me and only lives about 20 minutes away so I could actually just pick it up or meet him somewhere in between. I don't have to worry about damage in shipping, postage or the quality of the item when making a custom order. It is a win-win-win.
