Private collectionThis is just not a good representation of these rings, but here it is anyway. They are odd little things to begin with, but I liked them. I made them to go with the Purple Plaid Bracelet I made for myself (one of the few pieces I do not mind making over and over).Unfortunately, I did not get documentation… Read more →

Black & White Square Stitch Bracelet
Private collection This bracelet turned out so graphic and cool looking. It was tiny, at least compared to my wrist. I think it measured about 5 1/2″ x 1″, with it’s silver-toned hook & eye clasp. This stitch done in thread is very supple and fabric like, even in the chunky triangle beads it is made with. Read more →
Snowflake Beads
Private collection Please excuse the threads in this picture. I had not attached the beaded beads to anything, wanted the threads intact. I had made a kit from (some place I am currently blanking on, they seem to no longer exist, but I will look for their name and post it), that was beaded friendship flowers. Making those got me… Read more →
My Art House Journal & page
So this is the page in my “My Art House” Journal, that inspired Home (on previous post). I really liked it, even though it is kind of silly with the swedish fish label (one of my vices). This is the first journal I made for my self. I had done lots of book-binding previously, but had made nothing for myself.… Read more →
Home Collage
I did this piece a few years ago. It was inspired by a page in one of my journals. I will scan that tomorrow and post it. This I called Home, and it was done on a 2″ gallery wrap canvas. I love using deep gallery wraps, you can do so much with all four sides as well as the… Read more →

Photoshop Elements Fun
I have been playing with Photoshop Elements. I loved this photo. It was taken at a beach where there is no collecting allowed. My little friend and I really liked these rocks, and wanted some way of taking them with us. Unfortunately the photo turned out blurry. For some reason, I think maybe the strong light at the beach, I… Read more →
Black, White and Pink Bracelet
Private collectionAnother variation of the flat herringbone bracelets, this one in black, white, and pink. This was a wide one, about 1 1/4″ across. Very graphic and cool, but feminine with the pink. The tiny triangles in the two center windows running the length of the bracelet are also pink. Read more →

Dad Journal – 2
These are wonderful pages by my father, in our journal. On the first page, you can see my Dad’s best friend, my Uncle Richard, “preaching” away, and some of my father’s wonderful poetry. You would never know that my Dad has not done this before. He does such great pages. On the second side there is a picture of me… Read more →
