Colorful fun. An easy way to make your windowsill happy.

Today was STUNNING!!!
Even the early hours. With a colorful beginning and a few clouds “percolating” with possibilities. And when the sun finally made it over the horizon, the colors became even more vibrant. A quick switch from blues & oranges to vibrant golds.

With the clouds working into place at just the right time… and that one layer of clouds in just the right place, the sunrise was pretty stunning as it worked its way through.

You gotta love when the sunbeams come shining through.
Always a magical moment.

Say it isn’t so… but then again, you know I would try almost anything!!!
Even these!!!

Thanks to Amber for sharing this… and for getting my hopes up?!!!
Even though I’m pretty sure this is a hoax, you never know with the crazy influx of crazy Oreo flavors. Find a new flavor and send it my way!!!

Dark clouds everywhere… except over the City.

And about 10 minutes later… still TONS of clouds. Just a bit lighter…

The sky was very dark this morning. A lot of cloud cover spanning the horizon.
With just a small window for the sun to peek through… maybe?!

In this case… maybe NOT.

No sunrise this morning. Just lots of clouds!!!

Tonight I finally worked up the reclaim porcelain that has been sitting out on my plaster bat. Slicing. Layering. Pounding. Squishing. Repeating. Over & over again. After a little “upper body workout,” it came out to 156 pounds of FREE porcelain!!! Sure, it still needs to wedged fully. But for now it’s “resting” in the bags and I’ll do final wedging when I’m ready to throw some porcelain pots!!!

And then while I was on a roll, I decided to pulverize & soak the “other”  half of the porcelain trimmings I brought back from Minnesota in May. Thanks again Emily for the dried scraps… gotta love FREE CLAY!!!

A little bit hazy this morning. Quiet. Calming. And a little slow to get started.
But once the sun made it over the horizon, Monroe Harbor took on a shiny glow.

And let me just say it again… I’m glad the “Taste Of Chicago” is over.
Let’s get all of their extra clutter out of my sunrises!!!
