Art Discovery...and my Friday Frenzy

I often escape my day job in the middle of the day so my eyes can stop seeing lines (spreadsheets can be a bitch). The other day I wandered to Madison Square Park and discovered beautiful colors through the windows of the Flatiron Artspace on the corner of 23rd and Broadway:



I spent 15-20 minutes exploring the beautiful cups through the window. I snapped a few photos and walked back to work with a smile on my face, and new eyes now open to color everywhere I looked.



My Friday Frenzy is filled with too much. I know that I will never get it all done but I am going to try. The BF leaves today to travel and visit his brother's family for Christmas and I leave next Wednesday to visit my family so I'll have the apartment to myself this weekend.

  • Unpack and clean up the boxes from the recent renovations.
  • Twist more flower necklaces.
  • Create more tile necklaces if time (this might require a trip to Michael's).
  • Saturday morning city snapshots. (next weekend I will be in Wisconsin so I'll shoot photos of barns, horses and my favorite walking bridge to share with you) I sure hope there will be snow.
  • Pack, oh I need to pack.
  • Find a necklace that my Mom gave me to fix...I wonder where I put it? Oh, and fix it so I can take it with me.
  • Create one of the gifts that I have for my niece, Taylor.
  • Remember to pack the magazine and paper snips for my creative project with Taylor scheduled during my visit home. I am so looking forward to creating with her.
I am selfishly looking forward to Tucker snuggles and the whole bed to myself during the next few days even though I will miss my BF/Superman.

What frenzy do you have planned for your weekend?
