We are the village green preservation society


I had an explosion of extra succulent babies this winter.  All the babies had babies.  So now I am painting the cutest little 4” pot sets to plant the grandplants in.  I love you, cute little baby cacti 🌵 , but now I will sell you.
The pots will be sealed with polyurethane to protect the vibrant colors. There are currently 6 matching pots.
My potted grandplants will be for sale, if you're in the Kitsap or King County area (DM me).

Sunny Day Girl by Wayne Newton

I had the singular pleasure of seeing an honest to goodness Wayne Newton Las Vegas show in the early 80s.  And wow, what a spectacular treat.  His opening song was Comin' to America, by Neil Diamond.  As a surly Gen X teen, I tried to resist enjoying the show which was clearly meant for an older crowd and full of loungey songs like Danke Shoen, but you know... Wayne Newton is just so uniquely fancy and unironically amazing.  He won me over by the end.

Here's a link to a quick video I made, where I was putting some finishing touches on my painted 45.  https://youtu.be/Btm3loWBB5c

Painting this record brought back Vegas memories and gave me reminiscent joy.
