What's New

I decided to frame some of the buttons I've hand painted. I bought a frame and crackled it with cream paint. Then I took a picture of the Eiffel tower I had and pasted it on cardboard. I put a pink border around it and sewed on the buttons. Couldn't put the glass back on though! Buttons are too big. Oh well!





I've also made this collage that spells out HOME. I'm not sure if I'm going to list it on Etsy. I don't know if I like it. Do you ever have these moments?





This little village I like! And so did lovetoshop9! So she bought it. Thank you!


I thought about all those summer things: cherries, watermelon, ladybugs, and the flag of course.

A New Cottage! Mini Storybook Paper House

This is a little storybook cottage like you'd see deep in the woods. Sweet and cozy and ready for a tale!



I even put a little kitty in the window! What could be homier?

Busy Busy!

I've been coming up with new products for my shop! I have so many more ideas I hope I can get to them soon or my head will explode!

Teapots are what got me started as an artist. I hope to put more up on my etsy site soon!

I saw a brooch in an old Victoria magazine. And it just gave me this idea for little sail boats to put on your nightstand. I included a tiny envelope with paper to write your dreams on!
This is my cottage bookmark. I've made oodles of them in different colors. Just posted the pink one to see how it does on etsy. It just peeks out of the book and keeps your place with the door!
This is my Butter Cream Frosting Village. I've made a spotlight with them:
