Its a Christmas Thing

Seems there just isn't enough time in the day.  I haven't posted for a while and have had some dreaded computer problems.  I thought I would post a few pictures of what I have been up to. 

I decided on a real tree this year instead of my little pink one.  I just LOVE the shiny brite ornaments.  I do have to admit I think collecting them is an addiction.

A friend and I got together to make Paula Nerhus style steampunk dolls. 

I just love the way she turned out.

 

Now my crow has a friend. 

Since I had the paper clay  (which I used for the doll head) , I decided to make some snowmen to add to my collection.

Got some more things in the works…I just need more time in the day!!

If your interested, I will be teaching a wire cage doll class at Rita Reade’s in February.  It will be held at Rita’s home in Rainbow February 11th and seating is limited.  You can sign up here or email me for info.  Its similar to the class that I taught at Kim Caldwell’s a few months back.

Hope you are done with your Christmas shopping….I am!!

Happy Holidays!!

Sew Cute…….

I wanted to make some pillows for my sofa today so I started looking for tutorials on the internet.  I came across these Sprocket pillows on Cluck Cluck Sew.

Sew cute!!

So I had to make some of my own.

I had the fabric & buttons in my stash. 

I think I bought it to make a purse a while back.  The edge and the back of the pillow are from a curtain that I picked up at a thrift store. 

I went to the fabric store for fiberfill.

Of course I couldn't resist pink & black fabric to make one for my granddaughters bedroom. 

They are so easy to make and turn out so cute………I'm sure I will be making more.

Beware…….

Its true……..you cant make just one!!

Its been a while…….

I have kinda neglected my little blog.

I have been busy with work, creating and just life.

I am now teaching craft classes for seniors a couple times a month at work.  Here is one of our creations.  Shrinky Dink jewelry.

I had a fun class with Rita Reed at  Jackie's home.  Fabric & soldered charm wall hanging with my  grandparent’s wedding picture.

Jackie has turned her living room into an art studio.    Its the best place to visit and create! 

In fact her whole house is one big art studio!!

Cute Suzi & Gigi

The group. 

A picture from Rita's blog.

And if you visit Sally's blog there are lots more pictures of everyone’s creations.

I took my granddaughter to the San Diego zoo.

We will be going a lot since I bought annual passes.

We visited my youngest son at his new job…..Legoland. 

He said I was “harassing” him by trying to take his picture at work.  No just documenting the “first” job.  That's what moms do. 

His younger cousins are all envious that he works at Legoland.  They think he gets to play there when he goes to work.   

They have a cool show where they take kids from the audience to be part of the show. 

I had Mothers Day brunch at Bali Hai on Shelter Island……..I Y San Diego!!!

And much more……….

Hope you have been having fun too!!!
