I agree with what you say, but dont get rid of them - you will eventually find a use for them ! Definitely the highs and lows- sometimes Im impressed with my work and sometimes I wonder why I call myself an artist at all !

It's a disease, ladies! If it's new, we've gotta have it! Doesn't matter that our studios are already so overcrowded we can't find anything, we foolishly think we can squeeze one more thing in. And books ... OMG ...if it's published, I have it. So...

You know I am in the same delima! I love to buy goodies and then kind of get overwhelmed, because I want to do everything! I finally just am going with my muse and do whatever I feel lead to do at the time. I have been making some magazine bowls, dolls, fabric cards(for christmas), just kind of all over the place. It seems to work for me :)

New Addiction Alert...UTEE !!!!!!!!


WOW!!! I have discovered the most incredibly fascinating material I've seen in a long time. UTEE ( Ultra thick embossing enamel ) Is a product by Ranger ink company. Suze weinberg is the supposed "inventor' of it. It's a plastic powder that looks like sugar in the jar and melts at 340 degrees F. You can use the melting… Continue

Christmas shopping on the wild side!!! IKEA

I just thought I was finished ....and I REFUSE to do the mall! And walmart is a great place to avoid!


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Today I had an eye-opening experience.....I went to IKEA for the first time. I had to keep shutting my mouth , as it kept hanging wide open along with my astonished eyes. I bought a solid pine kitchen table & 4 chairs for $119.00 The place is huge, to say the least....and the stuff is very reasonable to the point of being

Metallic acrylic stamped on suede

This is a scan of my latest project.


I used metallic acrylic paints on green garment suede. The design is a lino-block I made. To enhance the colors , I used Metallic prismacolor pencil. I intend to make a purse from this piece.

Musings on multiple creativity

I'm glad I ran across this site the other day!

I realized that I could have the exact clothes I wanted. Also I realized that I didn't need to pester my folks for new clothes. In the early 1960's all the girls at school were wearing the same thing as everyone else...maybe in a different color. I never appreciated the freedom to be me til
