My Mom and Me.

Pretty things are always lovely to look at, they are even better when created by you! Here sits a sweetly decorated jar that once housed salsa. Now, it can keep any little treasure they like. Natalie and her mom worked together to pick just the right paper to decoupage the jar and the sparliest yarn to top the lid. They added the button finial on top to create the end result. The best part is, every time either of them look at the jar, they will remember their time making it together.

And the award goes to…

A family award is a great idea, an item that signifies an achievement, a silly moment or marks a milestone. Erin and her kids were caught in a whirl of creativity that became a statue of silly affection for their family. The industrial thread spool made a great base for the doll head-leaving room for much more frill and since the spool is hollow secret notes can be tucked inside! Feathers and shred give her the GaGa she needed and a final twist of squiggly plastic made her complete. Watch out Oscar!

This is no angry bird!

This little guy is happy to be a creation made out of thick black yarn with a plastic egg body and a soft foamy beak. He now lives at the studio where he makes lots of freinds and is a continuous source of inspiration to all.

There are times when giving is at the root of inspiration.

This soda bottle was the perfect venue for saying I Love You to someone special. Using paint pens to draw butterflies and ladybugs the transformation from beverage container to flower container began, but the mesh vegetable bag and pretty ribbon closed the deal making this unique flower piece a one of a kind I love you statement.
