Pugs in New Spaces...

I added my new senior pug as a pop-up in my altered book. I tried to show how the two pugs pop off the page when you open the book.


I love how his face looks so wise and gentle. He really reminds me of Emmitt.
Now I have a story is too funny and made me laugh. Sometimes I think I overlook things that are right in front of me. It is a good example of how sometimes I look outside for things that I already have and maybe do not fully appreciate.

I have been searching on Etsy for awhile for the perfect switchplate for my front hall. I wanted it to have a furniture element in it, and to match the style of art I have hanging on that wall.
Here is my Black Pug Double Switchplate. I have been selling this product in single and double plates for years, and just realized... It is just what I have been searching for!

I just treated myself to one and I love it. I crack myself up sometimes.
