Swedish Heart Baskets

I learned to make these Swedish Heart Baskets years ago from my friend Lisa in New York. They are easy to make by weaving paper, and adding embellishments and ribbons. I also tucked paper doilies inside them. You can buy my Swedish Heart basket and use it as a gift card holder, or a treat bag, or fill with dried flowers. If you still have your tree up like I do, you can hang them on your tree.

My newest button on Etsy

I used to make these Valentine buttons years ago. Decided to make some new ones to put on my Etsy shop. I make them with doilies and stickers and glitter. My original ones were made with antique paper doilies belonging to my grandmother. I had to go buy some new doilies to make these buttons.

I made some Valentine ACEOs today.

What is an ACEO?

You can see my Original ACEO cards HERE at Wild Goose Chase, my other etsy shop for original art and vintage items.

Portable Graffiti Buttons in San Francisco, California "Summer of Love" Reunion

My cousins Mickey and Maria are seen in this photo, barely, helping out Portable Graffiti at a show we did in San Franciso.

It was the first music festival in the park since the "Summer of Love" in 1967.

We did several shows that year. One was in Haight Ashbury in the town, and it was a killer show. I had planned to get breakfast and coffee to bring to the booth after we got set up. Before we even finished setting up the booth, we were bombarded with customers. When there was a finally a lull from the endless line of people getting custom buttons made, it was the end of the show.

We never got coffee or breakfast. But the arts and crafts show flew by in a blur.

You can now get the very same buttons from the comfort of your home without the crowds. Grab a cup of your favorite beverage and sit back and enjoy Portable Graffiti by going to ZIBBET: http://www.zibbet.com/PortableGraffiti

You'll find many new buttons as well.

Enjoy! Peace out!
