Like all of your stores I was captivated. I look forward to making a visit to both galleries and maybe finding a new one too. I’m dreaming of the fabulous chandelier.

I enjoyed the garden sculptures during the day trip to Shtooball. I felt I had fallen down a rabbit hole and was wary of the Red Queen.

Nancy, the park in Setubal is filled with so many beautiful pieces by Maria. That was the first place we stopped after taking the train from Lisbon. I said to my wife Nancy was here cause I remembered your previous posts you wrote about these whimsical figures.

Now that we have run into you 2 times, I’m surprised we didn’t run into you for a 3rd time in Setubal. 😍

A chuckle reading your words” besides clay is dirt cheap”awesome fines. I recall my visit to

Dominican Republican spending day at woman's center where they created jewelry out of newspapers. quiet a process - cutting into long narrow strips, then rolling n gluing into necklace/ earrings. Or the ladies who were separating color from black n white, using washing machine nine to mix then a food blender to mince n stir, pouring paper mush onto small meshed frames when dry making hand made note cards.Another day spent afternoon in a family home helping with English language skills. Always tear up when I think of young mother do proud of the recycled plastic bottles she turned into pretty flowers!! Think you for recommending this cultural experience to me
