Monday Monday

Well, today is the last day of my vacation....back to work tomorrow...sigh..
Here is the piece I've been working on that turned into something else!

Sunday Afternoon

Whenever I start out to make a collage it always...always turns into something unexpected. I start with one idea and another just takes over.I just finished a piece that took off in a crazy direction....I'll put the photo up soon...hope you're having a lazy, happy Sunday. That's what Sundays are for!

It's Friday!!

Not that it really matters what day of the week it is when you are on vacation! I am so enjoying my time off although the weather is totally NOT co-operating with me.....snow snow and more snow...anyway...I am working on some new, bigger projects and am excited to be working on something larger. I found this great illustration on a vintage pattern package the other day....

Wednesday

So enjoying my vacation. Went to the library yesterday and found so many sale magazines I wanted I could hardly carry them home! 10 cents each and they were Art Magazines! I've got to go back and get more. LOL!
I've been working as well and finally got some photos taken. A cute little pillow and a small box.

Will This Winter Never End??

More snow this morning....My goodness but this winter is dragging on! The good news is that I'm on vacation! 9 whole days off and lots of time to work on all of my projects. I have a list a mile long!

Late Night Thursday

Back to work today and this is my night to work late so it's a loooong day.... I finished this wall hanging yesterday and just love it! The page is from a 1938 copy of a Book called 'Hints on Girl Guide Badges'.

Spring Has Sprung!

Well at least I hope spring is here! It feels like it but you never know...it could snow again. Still have a bad cold and even came home early from work yesterday. I've finished a few more art pieces...check them out on my Etsy Shop!

Sundays' Child

I really am a Sunday Child...having been born on a Sunday...anyway, Sunday's child managed to finish some work today and get it photographed. Like everyone, I am sure, it is so hard to fit everything into a day....Here is my latest Mixed Media Collage - 'Party Dress'.....hope you like! I have finished some other pieces that I will put in my Etsy shop tomorrow.

Friday Morning

Yesteday as the day went on I realized I was geeting a cold. I haven't had a cold in over a year.....must be this terrible weather we're having. Winter just won't go away! It was pretty nice yesterday and this morning it's winter again. A lot of people are sick with colds and the flu...I think we're all just sick of the weather!

Wedneday Morning

I like to work with recycled materials. I've always thought there is just too much 'stuff' in the world, so to be able to 'repurpose' is fantastic! I stopped by my favorite thrift store yesterday and it was a treasure trove of goodies! I found ribbon, vintage hankies, lace bits and lots of this and that to inspire me. When I sit down to work,  sometimes I have an idea in mind and sometimes it's just a color or a fabric that I start with and the piece I'm working on seems to create itself! The weather has warmed up a bit here....hope the sun is shining where you are.

Sunny Sunday

A sunny day and best of all a day off!! Found some great 'bits and bobs' at the Flea Market this morning. Also managed to finish a couple of pieces and here they are.....

It's Saturday!

I've been very busy at my 'other' work but have managed to finish a few pieces which I should have in my Etsy shop this weekend. The weather continues to be cold, cold, cold, so here is another of my photos to warm us up! It was taken at a friends house in Mexico.

Wednesday Morning

After 2 great days off (although it is still freezing cold here) I have to get back to my job. I had a productive couple of days. I finished a couple of pieces and have 2 more that are just about there. Here is my latest collage.....reminds me of spring!
