Pay It Forward

Life for me is about doing for others...at home, in the community, and now online. I have recently signed up for something that I think sounds like loads of fun...a 'pay it forward' project. As part of the deal, in order to participate, I am offering this on my blog...I get something from someone with a promise to pass along the thought, so here are the rules:

The first 5 (five) people to respond will get something made by me.

This offer does have some limitations and restrictions, so please read carefully.

1. I make no guarantees that you will like what I make.
2. What I make will be just for you, with love.
3. It'll be done this year (2009).
4. I will not give you any idea what it will be. I will not give hints. It will be something handmade by me and will be a real tangible thing. It may very well be kooky or strange.
5. I reserve the right to make it as strange as I like, if I so desire.
6. In return, all you need to do is post this text on your blog (or a reasonable facsimile thereof) and make 5 (five) things for the first 5 (five) folks to respond.
7. Send me your mailing address--after I contact you. I MUST have a way to contact you. If you are on blogger, please make sure you have your email address in your profile. Please make this as easy on me as possible, I am a very busy woman these days.

Important: This offer is null and void if I do not see your post on your blog to pay this forward.

The Arts

I am a well rounded artist. I like to play with many different medias and types of art. I am a ceramic artist, a fiber artist, a folk type artist, I work with found and reclaimed materials and I make soap, salves and creams. I also like to work with watercolor, acrylics, metal, printmaking and paper.

Australian Shepherds

Ryder's Invader Zim is the guard dog. He watches over his domain and likes to ride in and on the truck. He is our blue merle male. W Lazy J Maiden Rock Bett. Bett loves to work horses, goats and help around the property. She is our black tri female.

The two pups left from the last litter.

All About Me

My name is Suzanne and I live in SW Montana. My family and I live on a small acreage in the mountains near Whitehall. We raise Nubian goats, Satin rabbits, Australian Shepherd and Shetland Sheepdogs (Shelties). We also have a variety of laying chickens and a variety of horses.

I am an art and special ed teacher. My interests are in fiber arts, pottery, watercolor painting, and folk art. I have just built a studio and am working on getting it up and running. I have a wheel and a gas and electric kilns, a sewing room and work room.
