Hi everyone. Happy Friday. It's been a mix of very cold days and just plain cold days at my house. And it seems most days we've been having wind. Of course they say next week we're in for some bitter cold days. What a month January has been so far. No January thaw yet. 😐
It's time for Nicole's Friday Face Off and also for Gillena's Friday Lunch Break. I've still been cleaning out my art space so I haven't had much art time, but with all the cold, it's been a good time to do it. I am happy to be just about done with a successful clean, reorganize and purge.👍 Of course, I should move onto my clothes closet which still has some work clothes in it (and I retired 4+ years ago) and even my books could use a good going through.
For faces today I once again have some pages from a holiday journal I made and finished right before New Years. Sorry to be sharing Christmas in mid-January, but hopefully by next week I'll have something new to share. And I really like this Christmas journal that I made.
There's lots of faces today, as well as some dots so I'll also be joining Mia's Dots challenge at Art Journal Journey.

That December page is really beautiful and the little girl sitting on the wreath is just perfect.
...and I thought yesterday was Friday.
Your holiday journal pages are really lovely, Erika. I especially love the face. Is that a family member? Keep cozy this weekend!
Erika, to answer your question on whether the museum tried to buy the ruby red shoes, they did and bid in the auction. The museum solicited donations to boost the amount raised by the city of Grand Rapids at its annual Judy Garland festival. Minnesota lawmakers had also set aside $100,000, but not enough!
Lovely face and pages
Merry Christmas ;-)
Love especially the girl. Have a wonderful Friday and weekend, hugs
Lovely work. Well done

So many closets to clean! I think it took me decades to finally give up my work wardrobe. By that time I wouldn’t have worn any of it for anything except maybe a Halloween costume. Great to hear that you are accomplishing all that.

All lovely
Wow! These are gorgeous. I love that first one. Her hair is so reminiscent of the times. Thank you for joining FFO and have a very nice weekend.
You created a beautiful Christmas journal, Erika.
All that cleaning and purging sounds really good. I regularly go through my things and often have a "free" box in my driveway. My clothes I usually give to an organisation that looks after the homeless people in our city - they have several shelters and also do big feeds, help them find job, do job trainings etc. Much of it is funded by donations and a thrift store. Books I know I won't read again end up in the little library across the street. I'm getting tired of all the stuff we have and don't use or need anymore. Have a lovely weekend, hugs - Carola
