Large art

I'm wanting some large art for my living room and this bicycle from the Pottery Barn catalog is giving me some good ideas.

Packing up

I've found the perfect bag for workshops or for anytime! It's by one of my favorite artists, Kelly Rae. She is a true inspiration for following your dreams and living your passion.

Feeling cranky today at work so I've been daydreaming about slipping into one of Jennifer Altman's surreal pics. I wanna go there!

Weekend project

So this weekend we recovered our 4 breakfast chairs. I have before, during and finished product pics to share. I used coffee sacks to cover the chairs and love how they all are unique. The sacks I found at an antique shop in the Heights and were 6 bucks each, not bad. I love a good deal.

The beginning


The helper


One chair down, 3 more to go

Abigail Brown's children's masks make me want to be a kid again and disappear behind a mask and play. I'm feeling that my creativity is stagnant and I'm needing a boost, but her masks made me want to create again.

Sorry for the little amount of posts!

It's becoming harder for me to post fun and creative things. I'm working full time now and it's been a shift for me to continue being creative and having energy to do the things I love. So bare with me, I working on it.
So check out this amazing wallpaper by Trove. Come fly away with me!!!

Nothing better than silk screen

Every month I get so excited to change my wall calendar because of the pure talent of the Ffrench family silk screening skills. This family plays together and enjoys creating art for our pleasure. It's a great gift for friends and family.

How cool is this

You can create your own fabric from your design. So much fun and reasonable. You know how you can't always find what you are looking for, well now you can create it.
