The truck is packed and I am Rose Bowl Ready!
It’s been raining all day but tomorrow is supposed to be sunny and chilly which is perfect!
Since I didn’t have to work on new pieces of furniture I focused on some new odds and ends and totally indulged in my love of typography and letters. There are some new HOME sings including Columbus Ohio:
as well as one for Pasadena (since I think Columbus Ohio might be a kind of a hard sell in SoCal).
And then I got it in my head that what I wanted were some painted, distressed letters. So I got to work with my scroll saw, some paint and and a little candle wax.
OK, I know when you put letters together for photographs you’re supposed to spell out words like “HOPE” or “BELIEVE” or something.
But……
What can I say? I was thirsty.
I just really dig all the chippyness (is that a word? spellcheck says no but I’m going with it!)

Also, when I was a kid my dad made a script NOEL that would hang on our front porch every holiday season. I loved that sign and it dawned on me I could make my own (my dad still has the original and hangs it every year). So I rooted around for some scrap wood and came up with my version (and I’m clearly playing with my new Action tools in Photoshop….bear with me).
OK, I have a few odds and ends left to do before tomorrow.
Have a great Sunday everyone!
