NEW Items. Feel the Holiday Love.

Here's the scoop:1) You give me your old vacation or family event slides
2) I make them a sweet candle holder, lantern, vase, window piece or table lamp paying lovely homage to said vacation or family event or member 3) You receive a fantastic and unique gift that will be talked about for years to come, made out of memories no one was appreciating last year
4) We can all feel good about reducing, reusing and recycling
5) You tell your friends about me and I make them equally awesome gifts!!!

Business Cards as Usual

So a few of us Sellwood kids think it's important to support our ministries and the ministries of those around us and a simple way to start that is to use our talents for the general good. To that end, an Etsy account in my name was born. You can shop my store, donate to the cause, or just send me a gently harassing conversation at:

http://www.etsy.com/shop/bitsanpieces

I'd love your feedback, ideas of places to score some more Kodachrome slides or window frames, other project ideas, more artists who'd like to locally join the co-op, and new friends just stopping by to say hey.

If you were directed to my blog here via a business card, the web address above or the link to my homepage should take you straight to Etsy and my page there.

Peace, my loves!

True

1. I live with 7 other people that I know love me with a love I hope I can reflect with equal fervor and commitment.
2. I have a great job that will meet my needs creatively and student loans-ly.
3. I am still heinously immature and irresponsible sometimes.
4. I love being with people, in their stories.
5. I want to be around kids more. Other peoples', my own eventually, right now...just other peoples'....
6. I'm discovering a kind of unity that is worth fighting for; these are bonds I expect to defend because of my love for these people.
7. I am now a pastry chef, a sniper, and a barista. And not a sniper.
8. Boop boop boop.
9. Regardless of how I feel about my life in the little pieces, I can feel the arms around me in the big story, making me a very small but integral part of it. Or so I'm told.
10. It's all one story. All of it. Family, your choices affect me, and mine you, and that's alright. That's more than alright, that's crucial. Help me choose wisely for a better story for you.
