I can't leave Mexico behind without a final burst of color. It's everywhere!
The doors:
Mosaics:
Chandeliers:
Flowers in store windows:
And on the streets:
Color to eat:
And to drink:
Color Parades:
And their aftermath:
So what did I work on the whole time I was there? These white-on-white bits! These are approximately 2" baubles for a large project I have in mind. I want to do one in color, but it always feels easier to start with a white-on-white version to get my bearings and focus on design instead of color. And it's much easier to grab a small bag of whites for travel.
But as soon as I got home, I decided I needed to jump into color again.
More on these soon.

What a great trip, an amazing riot of colours, and a definately different use for a bath tub. Thanks for your comment.
Wonderful! My sis goes to Mexico regularly to stay with a friend there (almost every January, while it's snowing here). I'm thinking...I need to ask her to bring home goodies for me...

Great colorful photos, I miss Mexico so much especially in the winter months. Love those baubles!!!
I got a chuckle out of all that color and then your white bits! Your last photo made up for that. Love those bits. Welcome home.
Burst of color indeed! I love the bright vibrant colors in your photos-you've really captured Mexico.
Robin, your baubles never cease to amaze me and I can't wait to see what you create with them. One reason I love Mexico is the color- bright, vibrant, full of energy.
