A Little Rain

Posted on May 26, 2023May 26, 2023

I hauled most of my craft items to the Ten Sleep Brewery this morning. I sold a few things… Then a friend and I decided to blow over the mountain to Buffalo and check out their greenhouse and buy some flowers for the library… Mission accomplished. Our idea to eat or shop a bit more…

Come to find out, Jaxon is not a fan of accompanying Tess when she gets her hair and nails done. I said he could come here. He saw that I had been working on some pysanky and asked if he could try. You bet! I’ve tried to get my family to do this with me,…

#TBT: The Easter Egg, v.2.0

Posted on April 6, 2023

This was first posted April 7, 2012. It’s been a busy couple of days, with kids and grandkids all here… But they’ve all left now. Silence reigns and a neglected English Shepherd lays at my feet! Easter Sunday just might be a smidge quiet. While they were here, I did, with Victoria’s help, manage to…

Tis the Season for Pysanky

Posted on April 3, 2023

The huge blizzard they predicted? It hit south of us but as of this evening, hasn’t made its appearance here. We were due to get most of it tomorrow, so I’ll see what I wake up to! The wind did blow all day and it was cold, so I sat down and pulled out my…

In Production

Finally. My arthritic hands can attest that I have braided a set of reins for each of my grandchildren with the completion of this set for Reagan. And don’t forget, I squeezed a set in there for Tess! I’ve also told Megan I’d make a set for her, but I may not get to it…

Aspen Love

Posted on March 5, 2023

My little Fire King mug was damaged by going through the dishwasher. These alcohol inks are hand wash only… so I removed what was left and started over. Aspen trees were on this before… and I love the look. My big, warm your hands in the morning, mug was also ruined. It took a razor…

Perfect

Posted on January 31, 2023January 31, 2023

After all my work on the studio, it’s just not available in the winter. A few small electric heaters and a wood cook stove still take time to warm it up. Supplies that can freeze just can’t be left there. Sitting down to work on a project for only half an hour here and there…

New Creations

Posted on January 27, 2023

I’ve been playing… if you’re interested, leave me a comment and I can get back to you with the details. I’m not sure I’m quite brave enough for an Etsy shop. What do you think? Details in the comments.

Play Time

Posted on January 20, 2023January 20, 2023

With days of bad weather and babysitting and “me time”, my stash of crafts has grown. I’ve been on an alcohol ink kick lately. The trouble I’ve faced is how to seal the ink. I’d made quite a few and knew they weren’t dishwasher safe. And I also didn’t like the way the acrylic spray…

Unique

Posted on December 13, 2022

Cold and snow has arrived and I spent a large part of the day simply inside… working on some Christmas presents. While I can’t share pictures of those… I did take a bit to work on my switch plates for my bathroom. I made this one a while back. Yes, my switch plates are sideways….

A new favorite mug. The picture doesn’t do it justice… there’s ribbons of copper highlighting the forest colors… Yup. I like this one! What colors would you want together on a mug?

Don’t know if I’m done with them or not… but it was better than scrolling through Facebook!
