Pen and Ink

This is a pen and ink drawing that I did inspired by this post I saw on Design Sponge. I would have bought a print but there were limited ones left so I made my own...

Party Ideas

I made this little fabric clutch that I found at this website today. I'm trying out some ideas for party favors for Nora's b-day party. I like to give something useful or meaningful as a party favor instead of candy or junk. This actually went together pretty quick and I was able to use fabric scraps that I already have lying around. The only thing that I would have to purchase would be the zippers. This is definitely a contender.

Finally Up

I finally got around to hanging up some watercolors that I did for Benny's room a long time ago. I got the plain white frames from walmart with the mats for $13 each. Not bad...

Farmer's Porch




Jim and I got started on the farmer's porch this past weekend. We figure since the weather has been beautiful we should start on the outside stuff. I can't wait for this to be finished. I've always wanted a farmer's porch with some comfortable chairs and some planters with annuals spilling down the front.

Cinch Sack




I made this little cinch sack for a little friend's birthday. I modeled it after the ones that my kids got from their soccer team for their soccer balls. Now that the house stuff has slowed down I actually have some time to do some fun stuff!
