One of my very talented and organized buddies made a custom liner for my flea market cart. After we all complained commented about what the old liner didn't have, Patty put together a bag that had all the features we as women thought would be handy. Nice bright color so it's easy to spot in a crowd. Pocket in the back to hold the bag of kettle corn - the all important breakfast food. Flaps on the top to cover our valuable treasures. A removable tote bag on the front just in case. The other great thing is the handles on the front bag will also hold the cart closed when not using it. Now we just have to find to go to the flea market!
Flat Fish Paper Arts was born many years ago when blogging first started. My family did a lot of camping and diving along the California coast. California halibut are huge fish that start out as any normal fish. As they age, one eye will start to move to the other side and the halibut will become flat so it can lay on the bottom of the ocean with both eyes facing up.
I always like the idea that we all start out the same but life experiences slowly changes us. In my case, my creative talents went the way of paper arts. Flatfish are always looking up when they mature and as with any artist, we see inspiration in everything around us - always looking up.

Years ago a local dive shop had a photo of a diver who caught a halibut so big he had to throw it over his jeep to take the picture. Our little spoof with our daughter sitting in her toy jeep with dad's halibut on the hood. 1987
