Elf on the Shelf for Busy Moms (With No Time or Energy)

on
Every December, I switch my hat from graphic designer to chief elf coordinator, and suddenly my entire creative energy goes into this little guy and his shenanigans. Because let’s be honest — the Elf on the Shelf has a way of taking over the whole house. One minute you’re designing logos or editing photos, and the next you’re crawling across the floor at midnight, trying not to wake anyone as you set up a tiny “scene” involving flour, toothpicks, and questionable life choices.

After Hurricane Ike Wrecked Galveston Island In 2008, Local Artists Turned Tree Stumps Into Beautiful Sculptures

on

After Hurricane Ike hit Galveston Island in 2008, there was little left intact plus there was a major impact on woody plants. A year later, the city agreed to turn dead trees into pelicans, dolphins and musical instruments.
Since then local artists have been transforming a historical part of the island, making elaborate sculptures to adorn many front yards. Nowadays, this tree art takes on a new meaning as a declaration of resilience and a wholeness with nature.
