Date Night in NYC

  
  
    
While the Talented Chics of the Arty Tea Party Guild are preparing for a how to make your own washi tape gathering, I stepped out with the hubby for a fantastic concert in NYC.

Pink Floyd was my very first concert ever when Dark Side of the Moon came out back in the 70's.  Now I was not really old enough to go to a big concert, but my older sister told me that she was not allowed to go unless she dragged my sorry butt along.  Love her!!! I had no idea what to expect, and boy was it out of this world!  I will never forget that one!

And last night David Gilmour, the voice of Pink Floyd, still sounds the same at 70 years old!  With a great set that included some of those PF hits, Money, Us and Them, Time, Breathe...along with songs from his new Rattle That Lock album, the show did not disappoint.  As usual, a great light show, too! Comfortably Numb, the whole way home!

Madison Square Garden was sold out for this one...2 nights in a row!  This, after they did a gig just down the street at Radio City Music Hall... And these folks came from Maryland to play in the traffic on the streets of NYC to join in the fun!  And from the way the Mrs. in the passenger seat was waving her hands all around, she wasn't having any fun yet!   Pink Floyd fans, all the way!

Aloha Friends...thanks for stopping by.  Will post the Washi Tape fun upon completion!

You've Got Mail...Art!

The dying art of sending snail mail via the good old USPS, is alive and well with my group of gal pals, known as the Talented Chics of the Arty Tea Party Guild.

Recently, when one of our friends was in a funk due to some medical issues, we got onboard to send her decked out envies...now some of the envies actually contain a note, a letter or some type of message, but not always.  In fact, most times, we just send each other an empty envie that is dressed to the nines....and yes that means decked out!  And if you are the lucky recipient of one, then you must, absolutely must reciprocate and send one back.
From a past LYA POSTCARD SWAP...
Postal workers love when we send MAIL ART!

This one with Alaska stamp, went to Honolulu!
Showing just the back of envie (didn't want to post anybody's personal addies)

OK, so get out those art supplies, and decorate an envie, and send it out as a surprise!

Rosebud Sandy preparing eggs for decorating!
Our Dear Sweet Friend "Rosebud" Sandy, is abit under the weather.  OK, maybe alot, and the cold winter temps surely do not help much.  But we are all very grateful and happy that her quadruple bypass surgery has done the trick, and she has a whole new lease on life!


And boy is she on a mission to figure out what the heck to do with it next!  So here's a great big

"GO SANDY"

Andrea's Awesome Coiled Rope Art

The Amazing Andrea's Awesome Art
I am digging these...all of them!  And the photos don't do them justice.  To see that bag in person is to fall in love!  And it is going up for sale at the Bethel Woods Holiday Market, along with the rest of these beauties, unless somebody snags them beforehand...
(actually, the red bowl is now sold, but more to come.)


GREAT JOB, ANDREA!  KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!

On The Road Again

The talented chics of the Arty Tea Party have once again joined with Nina of Happy Herbs Soap at the annual Grahamsville Little World's Fair.  Being up in the Catskills is wonderful any time of year, but for this event, it is very special. 

Happy Herbs Soap at Two Crow Cottage
With a little bit of something from all the gals of the Arty Tea Party, our booth is certainly busy for all 3 days of this event.  Stained glass, wood paintings, canvas art, altered books, crochet embellishments, and so much more including the wares by Nina, soaps, incense, pulse point oils, solid lotions, lavender sprays...which makes our booth smell so good among the other fair smells.

You can find us back up there again for the Tractor Fest...September 19 and 20.

Aloha, from Vicki who is totally outofhand trying to keep up with Nina here...
