LEATHER



Here are those leather collages i was talking about. One of my current projects.
Some are on wood canvas but most are just on re-used shelves or pieces of wood. 

I am also working on a series of paintings. i'm using every single last bit of paint i have right now, i can't wait until friday when i can go shopping and replenish the supply. but it's fun trying to use what you have left in a fashionable and pretty way.

HELLO OPERATOR


Thank you to the wonderful woman who decided that this phone should be mine.
While out walking on Saturday, i happened to stop by a yard sale. I bought a couple of things and on the way out commented on this gorgeous phone (that i could not afford at the time). 
She ripped the tag off of it and handed it to me and said it was mine.
cool

GOOD CROPS

Slackin' on the blog front.

Regaining your creativity is the best feeling in the world. 
I had been in sort of a slump for a while, it happens to all of us.
The worst part is that you know it won't last forever and you keep hoping that today will be the day you make something fucking cool.
I'm back on the jewelry, i've made some cool pieces, i will post.
My new favorite thing is leather collages. 
I knew there was going to be a good use for the mass amounts of scrap leather i have collected over the past couple of years...and last night it hit me.
I had a wood canvas kicking around that I hadn't gotten the chance to use and lots and lots of leather.
Add some good glue and there you go.
I will also post pictures. 

In a week i am free! 
No work no worries, just fun just crafts just me

NECK TIE






It has been a long time since I've made jewelry. 
I made this lovely piece at work today out of two pieces of wood from an old broken necklace.
It felt really good to make something, it feels like it's been such a long time....since I've made anything!

As for this week, it's been long. I'm moved in. this place is beautiful, melt my heart!
The cat couldn't be happier.


more jewelry, more fun!

INK



While packing up the rest of my life this weekend, I managed to run away for a day and share a lovely afternoon of tattooing with my girls Maria and Jen.
I have always wanted to tattoo myself so when the opportunity came up, I obviously took full advantage of it.
It was a little nerve wracking at first. Especially since I have never held a tattoo gun or permanently drawn on my skin before, but I figured it was worth a shot, similar to painting, no?


A nice little peacock feather on the inner ankle.


Today is the move. Tomorrow is the move,
I can't wait to be settled in a beautiful place with the man and my cat.
