SQUIRREL GARDEN (Studio 26)

BEAUTIFUL SUNFLOWERS ARE IN BLOOM

Summer is here with its long warm days and mother earth celebrating. Erika, my rag doll cat companion, and I were lying underneath the sunflowers. Emily, the squirrel, and her friends must have planted this beautiful sunflower garden.....we enjoy the beauty now, and as it grows older, the blossoms will produce sunflower seeds for Emily and her friends to eat......the garden is in the alcove where studios 24, 25, 26 & 27 are located....drop by and enjoy the glass art, photographs, jewelry, baskets, and paintings in the alcove! In studio 26, there are doggy milkbones for my friends, and near the sunflower garden, fresh water for thirsty wagging tails. The village is open 7 days a week from 11am to 4 pm! Hope to see you! Love, Bella

If your in Balboa Park today, stop by our village and see "Squirrel Garden" yep that's right "Squirrel Garden" SUNFLOWERS planted and well kept by our 4 entertaining Golden Red Tails squirrels. They are very vocal by chatters, growls and screeches. They love to chase each other up and down their handmade ladder built by artist. Find them at Studios 24-27.

Enjoy the sunflowers while they last!

LOVE BELLA! 

Have a safe 4th of July.

SAN DIEGO POTTERS GUILD SPRING PATIO SALE

Hello Everyone! It's another sunny day in Spanish Village. This past weekend was the Potter's Guild Sale held throughout the courtyard of the village. Lots of people enjoying the original pieces of claywork such as vases, sculptures, coffee cups, dishes, sushi plates, and so much more....and, very interesting assortments of glazes. Brandon, my poodle buddy, and I dug a nice, cool, hole under the blooming Jacaranda tree, enjoying the cool breezes, and the occassional tummy rubs. The Potter's Guild, open daily, has a large workshop/studio in Spanish Village, where dozens of artist display and sell interesting objects de arte, or utilitarian clayworks. A nice coffee cup would make a great FATHER'S DAY gift!

WELL WISHERS from the WISHING WELL

LAI and Bella (aka Roxie) at the Wishing Well

Memorial Day weekend at the village was a sunny day in paradise.....Visitors meandered through the 37 working art studios, listened to live guitar music, while the aroma of hamburgers on the grill wafed through the air from The Village Grill Restaurant....this is a photo of me and Lai in front front of the wishing well.....behind it is Studio 27, Jane's jewelry workshop, where you can check out all sorts of original jewelry, some made out of crystal, gemstones, natural stones and even fossils. I bet you can guess what I am wishing for.....A Village Grill Hamburger, for sure!
