Garden Harvest

Here is just a small example of what we get to enjoy:

 The initial work of building the raised bed, hauling the dirt, researching and planning was an investment that will payout for as long as we bother to spend a few minutes in the backyard every other day.  And even though the garden isn't providing the lion's share of our food: it reminds me every day that food is precious and sacred. 

Custom Wallet Project Completion

I recently posted some photos that I was using as reference for a custom wallet project.  Well, it's done and it got a great reception.  In fact I am even getting work from all the good reviews it got! Here are some photos of the beginning wallet and the finished project:

Glad I could overcome my horrible procrastination and performance anxiety to just jump in a get this project completed.  Here are links to purchase the painted cow skull design and the dream catcher design. Want a different style/color wallet/purse or a custom colors?  Contact me and I will be happy to create exactly what you desire!

Older than the dinosaurs.  Horseshoe crabs be lurking in your serums!

 Best food we had on the trip was from The Crab Trap.  Shrimp, oysters and fish that was caught that day!  So fresh, I could really taste the difference and I don't have a sophisticated palate.

The first part of processing a commission is my second favorite part:

having the person personalize and select the perfect design.   My favorite part of commission work is when I present them with the finished project.  If I've done my best, they are always pleased with the work!

[Tyler - Message me with your favorite one and let me know what your favorite colors are.  I'll have your wallet painted in a few days.  Thanks man! ]

Container and Raised Bed Garden - Oklahoma City 2012

Bird feeder and bird water fountain hanging from a re-purposed swing set. It is a big hit.  The birds love it and I end up spending about $50 - $75 a month on bird seed, suet and sugar for the hummingbirds.  So worth it though.  Keeps the cats occupied and pleases me to no end when I glance out to see the daily visit from pigeons, cardinals, sparrows, morning doves, black birds, starlings, crows, blue jays and the occasional finch.

Porch potted plants,  Rainbow carrots, oregano and a huge pot of basil.

Garlic chives and a rosemary bush; both of which survived over the mild winter.

A potted tomato plant.  The potted plants seem to do very well with plenty of water and the addition of compost and/or compost tea.

View of the south tomato and pepper raised bed garden.  Just planted some kale in the empty spaces and it seems to be doing well in the 100 - 110 degree heat.  There is a fat dog wallowing in the grass as well!

Big pepper!

Tomato harvest from one day!  The sun and heat may end up killing all our tomato plants but I hope that isn't the case.  Never get sick of toast and tomato sandwiches!

Porch plants.  Tub of Genovese and bush basil, oregano, carrots and freshly spouted Italian zucchini!
