I am saving money to buy a new couch. It's been YEARS since we had one. I wanted to salvage the one we have-I like it, the bones are good, but unfortunately, recovering it (it's cotton canvass-IKEA) costs more than buying a new one does. ($350)
Right now I have a fitted sheet over the seat cushions because they are in such sad shape. It's pretty pathetic. If I replace the couch, the our living room will have all furnature that we chose.
I vowed awhile back to purge my home of anything I did not love or choose. We had a fair amount of hand-me-down furnature and at this point in our lives, we decided that we wanted GROWNUP furnature. It's our space and we wanted it to reflect us.

I am saving money for another Michelle Allen clock. I have a game room that has approx. 100 clocks. It's called "Time Out." I'm a collector of yours, but need to save up to buy another.

I have some friends who live in Germany and have given me an open invitation to visit them anytime. I'm hoping to save for a fun trip so they can take me all over Europe to see the arts of the ancients and eat delights in every place we stop!
You always have the most fun art works on your site! LOVE THEM!
Hugs

Hi Michelle,
I just became a fan on Facebook, I'm already a follower and receive your newsletter and I'm going to post a button on the side bar of my blog for the give-a-way. I'm saving money to pay hospital bills. UGH! I enjoyed your posts about teaching your first classes ... well done!

I am a huge fan of yours. Used to work at Chiaroscuro in Chicago and watched all your work fly out the stores. I am saving to market my art and apply to more art shows.

Good day Michelle by Belle:
first off I love your art and all your wears. It very nice that you give away such treasures. I have been saving all my extra pennies over the last 6 months for my daughter's wedding in August 2010. It was originally going to be in 2011, but the young loves couldn't wait until then. bye for now going to read the rest of the news letter.

How cute are these banks! Saving money would be such fun when plopping those coins into a frog! I just save, you never know what you might need (want)! Oh, but I am thinking of a cruise next winter!

Michelle,
I'm saving to buy art supplies for my classroom next year.
Serving 179 students daily on a very limited classroom budget leaves me counting my pennys to buy tempera, watercolors, clay, glaze, and especially paper.
Hope you had a gas at art fest. I was hoping to attend but alas, someone needs to teach the next generation of artist.
Hugs,
Debbie :')
