I LOVE Summertime!!!!!

Last Summer I bought these two "dressing tent" boxes from Lori Mitchell. Beautiful photo (below) taken by my daughter, Sara.
This Summer I decided to order two of Lori Mitchell's figurines to go with them, after seeing them on Viv's Blog. Hi, Viv! : )

Fun pictures. That stationwagon reminds me of one our family had when I was young.

Oh my! How adorable!!!! I can't say which is my fave ~ the dressing tents, figurines or the car. They're all fabulous, and together just so darn cute!

Thanks for sharing.

Thanks! I needed that! UP here in WASH-INGTON we are getting all washed up with weather that is NOT HOT. I needed a little summer beach scene to remind me that somewhere out there, summer is alive and kickin'. We have gray skies, temps in high 50's and 60's unlike the rest of the U.S.
I think Lori Mitchell is a wonderful artist full of whimsy and delight. I might have to get myself one. The car...ha...surfin' USA all the way!

Oh Mary Lou, You have read my mind! I have doodling while on work assignments trying to come up with sailor type beach characters to make with my felt. Aren't these the cutest ever! The tents absolutely make the scene. Always inspiration to be found here, always so much fun to visit! Happy summer! Elizabeth

Love this beachy scene! The woody made me laugh out loud! All together they make a perfect summertime header. I was waiting to see what the RWB would change to. Love this!!
