I can't believe another week has screamed by! It truly seems like time is flying. I've been busy with my stepped-up job search, renovations in our apartment and sadly, caring for an injured cat. I will write a post about that shortly, but first; I have some photos of beautiful Providence, Rhode Island taken last weekend at the Downcity Art Festival that I want to share with you.
Here we are at the Downcity Art Festival on Westminster Street.
Gorgeous glass pendants
The city's resident hawk.
(We actually saw the hawk hunting pigeons later that day as we walked to a restaurant. He lives on top of one of the high buildings!)
Assorted paintings
Baubles and whatnot
Lovely stained glass pieces
Some funky furniture!
Cute Baby shoes
Colorful handmade clutches
The Balloon Lady
A happy balloon recipient!
Above it all
There is some beautiful old architecture in Providence. I'll feature more photos of it in an upcoming post. Hope you enjoyed coming "Downcity" with me.
Thanks. That was fun. I was transported.

Hi Deedee,
ReplyDeleteI love an art festival. So glad you would take me along. I saw some things I would have come home with. Those baby shoes were so cute. The little purses too. Providence is such a lovely city. It will be fun to have you show us around. Thank you for your visits to my place and the sweet messages you leave me. Makes my day.
Smiles,
June
That looks like it was a fun festival to wander through...have not been to Providence for some time, but always enjoyed Rhode Island when we visited.
ReplyDeleteHad a lovely time, strolling with you!

So good to get glimpse's into someone else's daily life. Very, very different from where I am in the Scottish Highlands! I hope you search for work is successful.
ReplyDeleteA great post, thanks Deedee. (Not sure I'd want one of those crying women hanging on my wall,though.)
ReplyDeleteit looks beautiful, thanks for the tour. it also shows what a city can be and why they are important. take care, jc
ReplyDeleteI really like the style of this picture entry.
ReplyDeleteI think I want to BE a balloon lady. I could really see one of those tables in my place.
So sorry about the cat.
Omigosh, that looks wonnnnnnderful. I love, love, love the stained glass pieces. I have always wanted to visit Providence, so thank you for the tour.
ReplyDeleteAnd good luck with your job search. I think about you often, and wonder how you are doing. Some organization would be very lucky to get you.
Dear Deedee, thanks for the nice photos and for sharing with us! Have a very nice week,
ReplyDeleteBest wishes,
Rosana
What great photos, makes me feel as if I had been to the festival too! Love the hawk pictures and how cool that you got to actually see the real hawk! I really am in love with those stained glass pieces, I just love stained glass. I always wanted a front house door made of stained glass, may be one of these days. We actually have a woman who has a studio here in town and she has the loveliest pieces. One of these days when I make lots of money I will go over there and buy some of her things, they are so gorgous! thanks so much for posting these fantastic photos. It sure looks like you had a great time!! happy sunday, Debby
