i wanted to make something different for valentines day so i started collecting little trinkets and tidbits that made me think of "the Beebz".  that's what i call my man.  he's a musician, so naturally i thought of him when i found the little toy xylophone, broken, on the street one day and a vintage metal gramophone pencil sharpener.   there is a page from an old dictionary with burnt edges, a rose he gave me one night that i dried, a tiny glass bottle that i put the first lock of hair i snipped off our sons head, skeleton keys, a piece of tattered wood my lil guy and i found on the beach, some die and rummy game tiles with his lucky numbers, and so on...

i  made I, Love, and You signs and had a friend drive around with me to a few of our favourite spots and took pictures of me holding them.   after i got these developed and had a small heap of treasures i began playing with placement.  i used a glue gun and got busy.  now it's your turn.

    I'm Jody Starfish. My friends call me Martha Starfish because I obsess a wee bit over miss Martha Stewart, Pintrest, and all things clever and beautiful. Love to cook, play, craft, garden and love up my friends and family. Welcome to the rodeo.
