Thought you’d enjoy this.

Here’s what Marge Crunkleton writes:

Hi….Just touching base with you to mention a couple of new additions to my mannequin line.

The prices range from 115.00 to 150.00…. very reasonable still….and shipping is 20.00 plus a few dollars for insurance. I ship in Styrofoam for safe delivery by US Mail.

Click on my web page to view all of them at: Vintage Mannequin Heads – Marge Crunkleton or click Lincoln County Garden Club – Marge Crunkleton

You may vary hair, eye and lip color as you please….at no extra charge. Now that I have a new drill, I can drill holes for ear rings for a lesser fee (on certain heads only.)

Sincerely,

Marge Crunkleton

P.S. As you know, my pictures are still bad (sorry)….but I assure you, my heads are great. I finally got a camera…but do not know how to use it.

A trip to Nordstrom’s

Nordstrom’s does buy some very cool art. Photos I took from a recent visit. The paint-by-numbers-style piece is actually really big; like maybe eight feet wide.

Anthropologie sightings

Ok, you can just walk into Anthropologie, hold your camera, close your eyes, and just point and shoot and you will get brilliant stuff. But anyway, here are some pix for you. I want to make a necklace that is vibed off of this.

Amazing photos of Burj Al Arab Hotel in Dubai

What’s so cool about this is the mix of sensibilities. Here are all the vibes I see: Islamic tile a la Alhambra, vintage American game board, The Land of Oz, gaudy and gorgeous, torpedos and Dr. Suess, Trump’s Atlantic City Taj Mahal. Wow. What a whopping load of cross-cultural aesthetics. Can you top this?

Pix from our NYC trip

Did you know I lived in NYC for 8 years? But still, when I visit, it’s like a new city. Always changing. Here are photos for you from our Surtex trip.

I needed a charger for my phone and got it here:
