apteryx wa

we make things



the arty (art + party) was fun. the night began with some painting, card-making and a bit of sewing. the evening progressed with popcorn garland and paper snowflakes. after midnight, some astounding pipe cleaner creations began to appear. my dad (hi dad!) always told me that nothing good happens after midnight. but he obviously wasn't talking about making ornaments out of pipe cleaners.




christmas comes to our living room and kitchen





yesterday we bought this tree and this awesome light-up snowman. i guess i should clarify that i was the one who picked out the snowman. but i think tyson is on board with the idea. his pensive expression in the living room photo is actually a look of quiet contemplation and admiration. mmmm, yes, the snowman does look happy to be living on our counter. yes, i think this arrangement will work out just fine.







continuing with the holiday merriment, we will be hosting a little art party next friday. so if you're a friend in the bay area, please join us on december 7 for our xmas arts and crafts evening.
