Home is where the pencils are..
"There are never any pencils in this house" You can hear this said by my oldest son, my husband, and yup even me. Even though we have tons of pencils, pens, markers, crayons, and various other writing utensils..it seems whatever it is you need, it is not in this house. So I thought it would be funny to create a stuffed house that holds pens and pencils and markers and crayons.





So while you may not find a pen is our house, you can certainly find one in this house. It has four pockets. Two deep skinny pockets, and two wide shorter pockets.





I'll admit it was a little rushed, so the door is off center, and its kind of rumbly bumbly...but I also kind of like that about it.





This morning it started snowing as I dropped off my oldest son at school and hasn't stopped since! They say we are only going to get an inch, but it already seems to be a few inches deep. Its beautiful, like walking around in a snow globe! I do hope it lets up later when i have to go out and run a bunch of errands, or I just atleast hope thye clear the roads. One thing I have noticed about Pennsylvania is the roads are awful! We live right by the border of Maryland, and it is so funny right where the states meet you can literally see a huge difference. The Maryland section of the road will be completely clear, not a bit of snow or ice...while the Pennsylvania side is coated! It looks like they barely scrape them, and don't use salt at all. Its really odd to see such a huge difference.


ETA--I keep forgetting to say, but Taryn has some of my woodblock paintings up for sale at MyMy:
