Careful What You Wish For....

If you read my blog a couple days ago...

This blinged ornament went to it's new home.

Martha Cole had asked to purchase one 

I told her to have it

 as

 it was an honor that she thought they were fabulous!!

 I did tease Shelby Love who delivered it for me...

that I will trade her for one of her elevators!!

Picked up the mail today to find this little package...

Containing this fabulous book....

and 

A beautiful note about the new owner of my ornament.

The book is incredible.

It is a tribute to ALL of Martha's Elevators...

Such a great history of noble and majestic elevators.

One of our town's elevators just burned down a few weeks ago.

So this means even more!

Iconic statues of the Prairies

Can you believe these are fabric??

Such attention to detail...

They look like paintings.

Martha also has a write up explaining her inspiration

of 

works of art.

Her exhibition has traveled everywhere

and

I was lucky enough to see it in person.

That's the first time I had come across Martha's works

and

I was blown away by her talent.

Still am.

I now own some of Martha's elevators....Jaynie!!!

See...careful what you wish for!

What a nice gift!
