Imagine a door creaking open that has been boarded over. A layer of dust falls on you as you poke your head in. And the dust is words. All sorts of funny words that get tangled in your hair. Painted on the door it says "a child's thoughts" because that is what it is to … Continue reading Doors To Our Memory
Happy Sixth (WHAT) Birthday, A Barefoot Gal! (ft. Favorite Posts, Fond Memories, and a Rather Yellow Giveaway)
It’s so satisfying, somehow, to make lengthy titles.
Anyway hi! How are you today?
Get ready, because today’s post is a very exciting one! 🙂 My blog is SIX years old as of Thursday, the 20th! My goodness that seems old.
But it also does seem like I’ve been blogging for a while (it’s getting closeish to half of my life!), and it has been so much fun! Just some quick stats for those of you who enjoy them… This is kind of an odd tradition, now that I think about it, but who am I to break it? XD

A Peek Into My Life #3
I know it has been a long while since I last wrote here on my blog. Unfortunately, I just have not had the time or inspiration to do so. I will try to post more with the Christmas coming up and Thanksgiving almost here. But I won’t be able to post that much because I … Continue reading A Peek Into My Life #3
Recent Art {+ GIVEAWAY!}
Take a look at Allison’s giveaway! And her amazing art!
Hello, dears!
I haven’t done a recent art post OR a giveaway for rather a while – I think it’s high time for both. 🙂 Today I’m going to show you guys some sketches, paintings, and LOTS of envelope art, and if you stick around to the end, there will be a fun little pen-pal/artsy giveaway which I’m so excited about!
Ahem, let’s get started.
First up we have my new sketchbook! I got a lovely brown paper journal at Walmart for, like $5, and I LOVE it. It lays flat and it’s perfect for drawing with black brush pens/markers.
I really like this spread. ❤
Colored pencil looks pretty nice on this paper too.

No trace of such a … Continue reading I, Pencil {part two}
