organized my purse

I like my purse a lot, but is a nightmare finding my stuff. I looked online for some kind of dividers organizer and I found this idea. I decided to try:
The purse is here, and the green 3 ring binder I used.


This fishing vest served me well in the rubber inflatable kayak on Hume Lake a few days ago.



I sewed one pocket onto the outside

and these 5 pockets are sewed onto the inside of the green three ring binder. I could take the rings out, and I might, but I might leave them in there too, they could be useful.

Here is the organiser unit tucked into my purse.

This is all that's left of the vest now.
My mom said I could label the pockets for what goes where, is a good idea, because my brain rebels against order.

Plein air drawing

This was all I had time to draw, too busy hiking and kayaking and fishing! I might post more pics later, but life is getting hectic as I prepare to fly east for the next epoch.

psychedelic psamsonite psuitcase (Decorate your suitcase)

I bought this Samsonite at a thrift shop for $16.99 today. It was hugely boring, so I decided to decorate it.

Here I am with mom's oil paints stenciling in a turtle.

I like the looks of this lots better.

And I don't think anyone will get mixed up at the airport and think it's theirs!

have to be a horrible warning.
