Mini Pillow

I purchased to get a thermofax of one of my designs made. I am still trying to get the hang of the screen as far as having a consistant color on the fabric. I'll show you my other attempts soon.

New Charms

I created some new charms that would be perfect on your phone, belt, backpack or even as a necklace. They will be available in my Etsy, 1000 Markets and Artfire store.

Screen Printing

I wanted to show you my latest attempt to silk screen on paper before I try fabric again. When I try fabric again I will probably use a grip to make sure the screen and fabric are closer together, this will allow for the ink to go on evenly.

Vacation in Florida!

My family and I went to visit my mom in sunny, hot Florida this past week. I wanted to share a few pictures with you.

My mom has one of the most gorgeous yards on the block.

As you can see she has put a lot of time and effort.




My three cuties playing in the sand in Daytona Beach.

I am enjoying being under the umbrella in the shade feeling the breeze.

I will share more pictures later but for now off to unpacking and laundry.

New Teapots

I have just finished creating two more teapots that will be available in my 1000 Markets shop soon.

Happy Saturday!

Creative Days

This week was a pretty creative week for me. I worked on my art journal, made some more clay birdies that will go in my shop soon. Today I worked with something I have never used before, the material is called Shrinky Dinks. I drew a picture on the plastic sheet, colored it then cut it out and baked it. I am not sure what I am going to do with them, but they can be quite addictive once you start making them. I'm thinking maybe make them into a charm or keychain. This is a great craft to do with your kids... heck I loved experimenting with this material.

Pendants

I made some new pendants to my collection. I focused on one painting particular titled "Eden". I will be adding them one by one to my Etsy shop this week.

Suwanee Day Festival

I exhibited in my first fall show this past weekend. Suwanee Day Festival was packed with people. My husband who makes circuit board clocks shared a booth with me. The crowds were pretty steady the whole day. I just sold only small items and my husband sold several clocks. The tear down took way too long, it was actually a nightmare. Our kids were able to help us some when they weren't skateboarding all over.

I was supposed to take a pictures of my booth, but forgot because of all the craziness. This is an older photo of my booth. My booth was much more filled compared to this picture.

To top it off the festival ended with lots of music and fireworks for a great ending. We saw the spectacular fireworks at home from our window.

Why Fly Note cards

It has been so crazy lately with my kids end of the year activities. Finally the summer vacation for us has started, so hopefully I can include more items in my blog now.

I have created some new note cards from my original work. My fanciful birds are a perfect little note to send to a loved one, or friend.

I'm looking forward to this Memorial Day weekend with all the festivals and other fun activities in the area. I wish you all a safe holiday!

Check out my etsy shop, I'm always adding new items.
