Kentucky Museum of Art and Craft / Favorite Place


Located 715 West Main Street, Louisville, KY 40204
Found Folk art sale going on now. Also, the artist in residence has done some awesome murals that can't be missed in the lobby and on the third floor.

Goodwill Donation Centers / Favorite Place

I love going to Good Wills esp. in January. I find lots of props for my store. Lots of fun display items. Yesterday I ran into my friend Libby (who I ran into last week at the same Goodwill) and a few minutes later we both ran into Susan. This is a Photo of the Girls (Susan and Libby) with possible treasures.
We feared it might get cut throat will all of us looking but each were looking for different types of junk.

Crazy Daisy / Favorite Place

Crazy Daisy Antique Mall is located on Mellwood Avenue. It has two floors of wonderful stuff. And they have a flair for display. A wall of books. Vintage trays painted with chalkboard paint.


Crazy Daisy Mascot Bear. Heard the click of my flash and smiled. All Bears must be photogentic. All black male dogs must be named Bear.


Always greeted with a smile from Dale.

After...The Milburn/Epler Cottage

WoW!!!! I gasped when I turned onto their street! It's amazing what 6 different colors and a little landscaping can do.

Before..... The Milburn/Epler Estate

Cottage slate blue. Cute but only Kent and Rick could tell what it needs to be to have that WOW Factor.

Found Michael Terra's Squint in a Pot of Plants


I love it when I find art in unusual places.

The Incredible Work of Allen and Mary Dee Dodge

This married couple met in art school and collaborate on small and giant pcs. Go to their web site and be prepared to be blown away at their talent. www.allenmarydee.com.
There is sooooo much art that I covet in Rick and Kents' home.
These are just two examples of the handcarved, handpainted, genius of Allen and Mary Dee.
The boys are having a party new years day do you think they would nottice if these went missing and wound up in my house. Hmmmmmmm.
