Additional pictures of my visit to the County Fair here in Orange County, Southern California. This gallery features all the fun I had checking out all the rides and games. I suppose some might think I’d have had more fun participating, but I remain with far more money by being just an observer! I’ll tell […]

There was so much to see at the Orange County Fair that my iPhone was clicking away relentlessly. From enormous dahlias in the garden section to pressed flowers, tablescapes, woodworking, paintings…. ridiculous foods, oh my! More pictures coming tomorrow. ~SueBee

A spontaneous decision a few months back resulted in entering two of my handmade journals to the Los Angeles County Fair. It’s a first for me, but something I’d thought about back in the day while still designing and creating Irish Dance costumes.

In Whittier, a town here in sunny Southern California, there resides the state’s largest antique store, King Richard’s Antique Center.

The gallery shows pictures of seven 3″x5″ tags I made recently for use in a future Junk Journal. Each tag is a color of the rainbow and has its own style and embellishments. The purple tag opens to reveal pages for journaling and is held shut by an embellished clip, while the yellow tag has […]

Photos feature the ever-beautiful Descanso Gardens in La Canada Flintridge on an overcast day this past month. Growing up in the next town over, well before the separate cities of La Canada and Flintridge joined and incorporated, my mom took my brother and me there often. It looked and felt very much like our own […]
