Such a perfect weekend….
And I’d like to share it with you. First of all the weather was absolutely perfect, and we were heading to Dandy things in Long Grove Ilinois.  A really unbelievably cool indie hand made store that I am thrilled to tell you Stabbies can now be found at………yippppppppeeeeeee. Then we headed into Chicago to see Heidi Kenney’s Seedling, sprout and spores show at Renegade Handmade……….which of course was brilliant.
Renegade Handmade did a fantastic job of hosting the gallery night even the window got me excited to see Heidi’s work, but not as excited as I got when I saw Heidi……….she was so nice.
And I was there early enough (oh boy was I) to snag a goody bag and some of her pieces (they didn’t last long)
This cute little group scene and
the individual tree and the individual mushroom on the right are mine as well as the sprouts on the right
I am so excited to get them I can’t tell you how hard it was to walk away from the store without them (they are on display at Renegade until May 18th).
Mark of course was excited to be in Chicago for other reasons…………..the apple Ipad came out at the weekend so of course we had to head over to the Apple store on Michigan Ave so he could play with one. After picking one up for all of 5 seconds the sales assistant barely gets out the “can I help you” question before Mark blurts out I want one do you have them in stock? So Mark got a goody too…………The store was absolutely mobbed
This was the frenzy of people all waiting to play with the demo Ipads (there was always at least 30 people crammed around the table) and in the 10mins we were in the store they must have sold at least 30 ipads………probably more but still pretty immpressive.   Anyway Mark is in nerd heaven with his new toy…….it is pretty cool though.
So that was my fantastic Easter weekend, pretty great huh? How was yours?
