and gather together to make a big cement room come to life.

A special thanks to my Mom who flew up to help out.

Here are links to some of my favorite crafty gals:

A Tea Leaf, Rookie Books, Rachel Austin,

Lori Shippy, and Laura Cooke Ceramics.

Thanks to everyone who came and shopped handmade!

which will be available at Presents of Mind

New Resin Jewelry.

Well, the studio was too cold

for resin pouring,

so the bathroom had to do!

It's well ventilated and warm.

Here I am working away,

of resin pendants and rings.

Come check them out in person...

Hope to see you there!

A busy few weeks...

Phew...What a busy few weeks it has been!

Here's my little shop at the Rieke Elementary Art Fair.

And my shop at Crafty Wonderland.

Both were very fun sales,

and I loved seeing all my crafty buddies.

I also got some amazing trades.

Go see my new friend Leah at

RustBelt FiberWerks for some screen printed treats.

Then I taught some "beginners"

how to carve and print linoleum blocks.

I think they were faking me out

when they said they had never carved before...

look at these awesome images!

I was SO proud of them!

And then my partner and I threw a surprise party

for our friend Saskia, who is finishing her

first year as a high school principal.

We spent a few days readying the yard and house,

I was in heaven.

I don't think I love anything more than making

our yard and home beautiful...

with my partner at my side. Love you Kris.

And I also love a table of good food

and good friends on a warm spring evening.

I think it might be magic.

Post Craft Sale Relaxation

Phew, Craft Sales are done for the season. And what a season it was!

Thanks to all of you who supported your local crafting community!!

This is a picture of me at the tail end of Crafty Wonderland.

It was an amazing day,

filled with zillions of shoppers and awesome fellow crafters.

In the foreground are my good friend Lori Shippy's birds.

Again, I can not say enough about how amazing her work is.

Now it feels like time to rest and renew...

Although... look for some fun new items on my Etsy site next week!
