THE BEACH ANYONE

I think this little guy needs a date for the beach. He's so cute, and light as a feather. He's made of this very thin celluloid like plastic. I just love posing him around the studio.
I worked on this necklace today, for my sister in law. She's really into the symbol "the hand of Fatima"....I think that's what it's called. I don't know much about it but I think it's to ward off evil. My pictures are so bad. I really have to work on my photography skills. I mean no skills!!!! I say this all the time but this pic really doesn't do it justice.

Take   care,

THE BIG EYED PEOPLE


When I was a little girl my Mom and Dad had a collection of prints by various artists. They were all of big eyed little girls. I think they were from the 60s and 70s. I know there was also prints of puppies and kitties. We didn't have those but I've seen them at yard sales and antique malls. I loved looking at them. I actually have one from my mom's house. She always said it reminded her of me. Anyway that's what inspired this little drawing collage on wood. I also used tissue paper and vintage sheet music.


Thought I'd throw in this little sweetheart from my studio.(just cause she's so cute)
Hugs,

AROUND THE HOUSE WITH PHOTOSHOP


I went around the house and snapped a few shots of things that I thought I could have some fun with photoshop. Here's what I got. Definitely not a pro, but having lots of fun! Whatcha think?
Cheers,

DRESS FORMS


I love decorating dress forms. From the little wire forms to the yummy vintage Wolf ones. I usually use mostly vintage fabrics and lace. My claim to fame with my friends and their daughters, and family is every time there is a Bridal shower I'm the go to girl. Could you please make me a dress form for the bride. It actually becomes quite an obsession for me. I can really get carried away with the details. My only problem is I always do it for free. Not that that's a problem but you girls know these vintage fabrics and laces can get hard to come by and also a little pricey.  Well that's about it.
      Talk soon,
                        Jane

Tiny Rollerskates

I don't know when I found these little guys, but I've had them forever. The little wheels are delicate but strong. They just inspire me....I don't know why.



Take care,
