Happy Easter!

Good Friday

Have a wonderful Good Friday everyone!

Hoping in the Dark: The Light of the world has been crucified. Darkness drowns evening sky, night seems eternal. Gray clouds thicken the heavens, and angels weep,as rain falls from abovelike endless tears,soaking barren earth with sorrow, sharing in the soul deep sadness. The disciples wait,in hollow stillness, heartbroken, confused, yet expectant. The faithful disciples wait, breathlessly, for the promise, to be fulfilled on the third day. They wait for their Savior, Jesus Christ, to conquer death's grasp. His bleeding, broken body surrendered, a priceless gift given in love,they believe, hoping in the unseen Kingdom, knowing they will see Christ again, as triumphant King of Kings and Lord of Lords.

Easter isn't Far Away

At times I wonder if I should change my "name". I LOVE primitives, but really I don't have time to devote to "making" many primitive items other than painting and distressing wooden bowls and cutting boards. I mostly dabble in making vintage~primitive style hang tags and now even more I am into altered art using sweet vintage images. I am therefore leaning more towards altered art as the focus of what I "do/make/etc."

I love my "name" though, as I am and will always be "Abigaile's Mommy". This name started way back in 2001 or so when I first signed up on eBay and started purchasing clothing for my baby girl. Then I became interested in primitives and involved in starting to make and sell hang tags, thus the "Primarily Primitives by abigiales_mommy". Since I've been known as such for so many years I really hesitate to change my name though wonder if perhaps I should. I am in need of completely updating my website, and am strongly considering closing my eBay store and instead stocking an etsy shope with some items. So what do you think? Should I continue with my name as is, or consider a change to something that seems to fit in more so with the altered art that I am now focusing on, or does it even really matter?

Sweet Vintage Spring Images

This week the weather has been somewhat dreary, raining on and off all day and night. It's not helping with my feeling so tired, but thankfully, the good news is Jacob is FINALLY sleeping through the night. *knock on wood* He's almost 21 months old and hasn't slept through a full night up until the past few nights. Hallelujah! Perhaps I can start to feel refreshed in the morning soon!!
