Purse!

This was last weekend's pre-Thanksgiving project. An old garage sale shirt and beads. Thoughts?

Thankfulings

This year there are so many things I'm thankful for. Here are pictures of just a few!

(Dinner at Maribeth's beautiful new house...she set a gorgeous table and even made adorable place cards! This picture of course implies all the great food and wonderful people that sat around it!)

What are you thankful for??

What we've been up to....

So I realized the other day that every free minute lately has been spent sorting, or packing, or cleaning something. I've had a few projects to work on, but other than that, nothing artsy has been done. I had forgotten how much stress relief I get from my art! Yes, I buy glue to avoid drugs.

Anyway, I have all morning tomorrow to devote to pursuing my own artistic ideals, but here are a few pictures of the projects I've been working on. Some of these are surprises, so they'll remain captionless for the moment.....

These also came in the Xmen and Batman variety....

(I did some of these with rainbow seed beads on the base...some stripes, and some covering the rim and the base. Very classy looking, in a rock-star kind of way.)

(By far one of my best ideas lately!)

Okay, so I lied, there were a few captions.....

Moving!

So I haven't posted much lately...but I've been working on three big things.

1. Finishing up invites and centerpieces for a paying party.
2. Working on business cards and plans to make this paying thing a more common occurance.
3. MOVING!

So all projects are on hold unless otherwise needed for holiday gifts...but many pictures to come soon!

Pretty Pictures

Last fall, Paul and I took a walk around our neighborhood, and Paul, who is MUCH better with a a camera than I am, took some pictures. Here are a couple of my favorites!

Autumn is here!

Finally, autumn is here! To celebrated the autumnal equinox (try saying that five times fast!) we had an awesome bonfire, complete with cider, donuts and smores. And of course home made pizza...kilbasa, spinach, French cheese, peppers, onions, lobster...it was awesome.

Of course, in the middle of all this, I caught a cold. And I have all these awesome ideas for things to make -- but the sinus pressure slowed down all brain waves, and I sat on the couch all weekend. But I did find enough brain cells to make a list, so creative crafty things should be coming soon!

Perhaps I should blog about some of these crazy recipes we're trying and inventing. Anyone have any ideas for things to try??

Superheros

I just got my first gig for the fall! I'm doing Superhero decorations for a very special birthday party. Don't want to give too much away, but I'm uber stoked, and of course, pictures will come later!
