\"untitled-1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

So after a week of autumn color and a week of mostly translucent autumn, I am moving from Fall colors (I promise I am!) into leaves! There are tons of leaf motifs popping up out there and this beautiful bowl by the one and only Emily Squires Levine was on the top of my list for found leaf motif. (That has a ring to it!)<\/p>\n

Emily has been branching out (pun intended … couldn’t help myself!) with some new designs this that are more of an extension of what she’s been doing than a departure. I am sure, with the In the Forest project<\/a>, more trees and forest imagery will be popping up in her work and many more polymer artist’s pages as well.<\/p>\n

I found these on Emily’s Facebook page<\/a> where you can view more of her latest work. You can also stop by her website<\/a> while you are off wandering through the leaves and such.<\/p>\n

As for me, this will be a particularly busy week with the holiday, house buying paperwork (it’s like a second job!), getting the Winter issue off to the printer and, last but not least … in a non-traditional move that has more to do with logistics, health insurance, and moving residency to California before the end of the year, my beau and I will be tying the knot tomorrow, at least on paper. The official celebration\u00a0is a month away but the fact that there will be no turning back after tomorrow does give one pause. Unless it’s the guy you should have married 3 decades ago. So yeah,\u00a0don’t mind me this week. I may be a bit distracted.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Inspirational Challenge of the Day: <\/strong>Can we just say … get through the week, make time to relax and play, and enjoy your families. Sound good?<\/p>\n
