Just call me Auntie. Auntie Ifa.

I created the Emerging Beader Program to help artist have more opportunity to show their work and to give them a leg up into the art world. This artist's work is phenomenal and I'm so happy to be able to help her begin her journey!

I've been working getting this project underway for years. It's finally happening and I couldn't be happier!!

As the director, I'm not able to be a judge (as I organize everything and know the artists), but this piece is one of my favorites! The detail is incredible and it's even cooler in person. Come by my museum and see it in person!

No rights are safe

Temper tantrums that will cost lives.

In person it's even better/worse... you know what I mean.

Working on personal sustainability and being able to support community, you know, with the upcoming ending of the world and all.
Anyway, chickens hatched this weekend!

Temp counter top. Then back to fighting the patriarchy.

Cabinet day!! Getting so close!

History repeats itself, especially when your country doesn't really teach history.

If I were a gynaecologist I would sign my emails with “At your cervix,”
Missed opportunity for an entire field if you ask me.

Putting up stringers in my kitchen! These will give me something to attach the sheetrock to, hold the insulation in place, and also give extra support to a roof built in 1808, which is not in that bad of shape considering.

One of my favorite pieces ❤️

Woke myself up from laughing to hard when I made a fart joke in a dream.
I am forever 12 years old.
(for the record, it WAS hilarious)

Building up reserves of food stuffs and skills in making food stuffs. This year, 4 taps.

This man is incredible. His work is poignant and incredible. And I am so incredibly lucky to be able to display his work at my museum. Please, come check it out in person if you can.

If people are actively discriminating against you, please shout out who they are, even if you don't think they are a person/group/business that others interact with. I wanna know who was only not a dick before because they didn't want to get caught. Tell on them, no shame, shout it to the world.

Perfection

Was told by one of my Docents today "This is the first museum you started? I really assumed it was your third!"
So that was nice.

My amazing boyfriend wrote me this song for my birthday last year. He's incredible, it's incredible, and we're a pretty incredible team. Take a listen and enjoy getting dirty ;)

I've always liked mycology ❤️

You could get a girl who is a cutie-pie. But really, you want a woman who makes a nerdy-pie.

This is one of my more favourite pieces from the "A Novel Tea" Beadwork Challenge. Every little thing on here is related to having a cup of tea. I love it!

It's not that I want another puppy, It's that my dog wants one. A puppy for my puppy. I'm just trying to be supportive here.

My local grocery store had a gingerbread house contest. I don’t know who this sculptor of truth is, but I salute them.

The subtlety here is as thick as day old gravy and I'm all for it.

Now do Pete Hegseth, Tulsi Gabbard & Kash Patel.

Rolled up and put away a half frozen, 75 foot, heavy duty, garden hose today.
Ya’ll, I got a new plan for cardio workouts.
