Here We Go Again

Here we go again…

I had been going back and forth about whether or not I was going to put up decorations for St Patrick’s Day and had finally decided I wasn’t going to do it {it’s SO MUCH work!}

I mean really, Halloween, Christmas, Valentine’s Day, wasn’t that enough?

And then I was at a shop in town the other day and the cashier asked me if I was planning on putting up any decorations for St. Patrick’s Day…Which I thought was HILARIOUS.

And in an instant, everything changed.

I told her that in fact YES I was planning on decorating for St. Patrick’s Day and I was hoping to have them up next week.

And then I went home and told the HH he was going to have to break out his saw again and cut some more buoys.

He was less than thrilled. HA HA HA.

But you’re so good at making buoys… You’ve got it down now. Can’t you whip out a few more? Oh and while you’re at it you might as well knock out some for Easter too. 

Because HELLO, it appears everyone in town is expecting it now.

Okay, so maybe not everyone. Maybe just a few. But it really is SO MUCH fun to see the look on people’s faces when they drive by. It’s fun to see the double takes.

And to see people out front with smiles on their faces. Some people even bring their dogs along and have them pose in front of the house and buoys.

It’s silly and crazy and a little serendipitous and I love it. I love everything about the way this whole little “art insulation” is unfolding.

I may not have time to finish painting my bathroom, but there’s always time to paint just one more buoy.

So here we go again. It looks like I’ll be pulling a few shifts at the buoy factory this weekend.

Stay tuned… More pictures coming soon.

Have a great weekend everyone.
