Little Girl Pockets


I had some short lengths of cording left over so I decided to make smaller pockets for the little girls who live down the alley. The ones who helped me bake cookies during the snow storm this past winter.  It's the first time I've used my Lego buttons on anything. Perfect!

I brought them over to the girls last night, and this evening, the 9 1/2 year old came by, looking so ready for a party, with a lovely sparkly dress, hair in neat braids, and the little Pocket. She took out something from her new Pocket and presented it to me. A wonderful drawing of her with the pocket on, a thank you note! It promptly was posted on my refrigerator.   Lucky me to have my Pockets appreciated like this!

Love the lego buttons!! Small favour if you have the time. I just opened an etsy store and wonder if you wouldn't mind looking through my website oneofandreas.com and suggesting paintings that might work on etsy? I know paintings are much more personal choice but I'd appreciate your opinion! Thank you!

Oh hi, again. May I order one of the Little Girl Pockets, please? If you have one made up, that would be great. Otherwise, Sarah, my granddaughter is very into PINK, if you catch my drift. Thanks in advance if you can do this. If not, that's okay too. I'm in love with these POCKETS!

How did I get into this?

I was asked when I started doing Mailart. Good question. Like many artists, I was making and mailing art without even knowing it had a name ...
