So very happy and I guess I need to get busy for my next art show.

So happy they both sold at our Art League open house last night.

Birdhouse

I made this for a swap. A wooden birdhouse which I added stamped tissue paper and a few embellishments.

Bangels

I made these bangles using sari silk. Then I added a few charms.

Crown Me

One of the crowns I made after taking Tobi's class last year with Artful Gathering.

I love using chicken wire for the base and then just keep on embellishing.

Bracelets

These are the bracelets I made for Art For The Creative Mind Swap.

We used zip ties for the base and I wrap mine with sara silk and then wire and beads. Before i joined the zip ties I added hand made jump rings and some glass charms.

A Little Steam Punk

Love making these hats. Started with paper macho and painted and stress them.

Used swimming goggles painted and stress them.

Then the fun begins-embellishing them.

Angel

I made this angel for our Holiday House. The base is a metal pocket, I repainted. I used a porcelain doll head, I painted. I used paper clay when adding the head. Added wood angel wings and some crystals. She did not sell so I think I am going to hang her in my new studio.
