1.  Mark your calendars for the opening of Full of Grace – a solo show featuring new works from the Amazingly Creative Anne Carmack.  Friday, April 3, 2009 – just two weeks away – at The Brickhouse Cafe in Venice, CA.  Visit her Folk & Fable website for more details.

2. I went to Unique Los Angeles this past December and got a slew of beautiful, handcrafted Christmas gifts.  They are hosting a second weekend-long event this May, and the deadline to apply is this Tuesday, March 24th.  Click here for information on how to apply.  I hope to see you there!

3.  Elsa Mora – how do I love thee?  Have you seen her new blog The Hidden Seed?  Fabu-lo-so!

4.  The next time you need a gift, head to The Shophouse for intriguing found objects and fine fabrications.

5.  We will miss you Blue Poppy!  Head to her blog today for her – sniff – final entry.  (I will not cry, I will not cry…)

6.  …but the title says FIVE things!  What is this world coming to?  But, hey, it's for a good cause!!  The lovely Carolyn Rubenstein is organizing and online fundraising event for Hodgkin's Lymphoma research, a cause very close to my heart.  Please consider donating one of your lovely creations for this event.  Email Carolyn at carolyn@cccscholarships.org for all the details.  The event is coming up soon!
