Market Shopping

We went out to the market again today and found some great new things.


This is one of the first masks I've seen that I REALLY like.

This pic shows the size.


I also found this wall hanging.


And this table runner.


They are both reverse applique. I love them!! I think I will be visiting that shop again regularly.

I AM SORRY!!!

I have been sternly reprimanded!! Several people have "gotten on to me" for not posting anything recently. Well.... I just haven't felt that there has been anything to tell really. And I haven't been out of the apartment much because of elections. It's been quite dull really.... (so there) Well yesterday something interesting finally happened. We had ordered some handcarved chests from an artist here and he delivered them!! We got 2 chests that will sit back to back and we will use them as a coffee table in our new apartment.


They are carved on 3 sides and the backs have a diamond pattern. One chest is carved with a village life scene and the other is a "foundation" scene. That means its a scene of the king and chiefs or elders at a celebration. Then Roy also purchased a few panels from him.
They are all pretty cool. The company is having our entertainment centers for the new apartments built buy the same guy. I think they will turn out really nice. So there is a post, now it's late and I am going to bed!! (I will try and do better this month... but no promises!!)
