Mixed Media: Beautifully Unique
The mixed media picture I’ll show you today is a perfect example of if you don’t like it the first time, keep layering. I’ll show you what I mean. I started with a few papers over canvas. I’m using some of the house patterns from the books I bought at the library sale, some scrapbook [...]
Blueberry Muffins
One thing the people in my life absolutely love (and sometimes, beg for) are blueberry muffins. I wish I could take credit for this, but I can’t. The reason for it is that I have a really great recipe. That’s all. (That’s the secret to being a fabulous cook, for those of you kitchen novices. [...]
Mixed Media: Not That Girl
Remember those canvases we talked about recently? I covered two different canvases with different but similar papers, and last week I showed you the first picture I did, and today I’ll show you the second.

Cupcake Plate Stand
I’ve returned from my vacation (or more appropriately, staycation) and that means it’s back to gluing glass together. My obsession continues!
Eiffel Tower Felt Ornaments
Remember those house ornaments I made with felt? Well I had some leftover and wanted to do another ornament project with them.
