October Work

Here is some recent orders/work I've done...

 

Boo Gobble Wobble

Here are the latest and greatest! I've had so much fun coming up with some new ideas, and getting ready for the holiday seasons that are quickly approaching!

A Long Time Coming

Wow, I hadn't realized how long it had been since I posted! Here's what I've been up to lately!

Just For Fun!

I had some free time a few weeks ago in between projects and made a few new things.

Circles Frame - Canvas 4x6 Frame $8.00

Crosses & The Art of Distressing

I have been busy, busy lately with some fun projects! I just got done with 2 Distressed Crosses that turned out really great! I'm never sure if the colors chosen are going to turn out well when distressing, but these worked beautifully!

I have had lots of questions about distressing, and all I can say is that it takes time! There are lots of different layers involved to get that really aged look, so if you just want a little distressing, it isn't so time consuming. The red cross has 6 layers and then 3 glaze coats, and the green cross has 8 layers and 3 glaze coats! Whew...that's lots of painting!





I also did a new sign for our house! I needed a new one! It is also distressed, to match the rest of our house which is all rock and wood.


Then I did another canvas painting of a Cross. I don't think I've posted pics of this one yet, but if I have...forgive me, I'm a little scatter brained right now!

Now I know my ABC's

I found this super cute little wooden ABC puzzle the other day, and I just couldn't resist getting it make it adorable for little Lyla. I had fun thinking of different ideas of what to do with this one. I think it turned out really cute, and way more girly than the traditional little learning puzzles!

Each letter has my own special glitter glaze, with 3 extra coats of clear glaze to give it a little extra pop!

And then I also painted this sweet little canvas picture frame for Lyla's room too!

New Canvases & Valentine Fun!

I can't figure out why blogger is turning some of them sideways...I give up! Enjoy!

Mailboxes & Lap Desks

Here is a mail box I did this summer.

And this Flower went with it
