Mirrored Mosaic Star

One of the perks of working at a local glass store is that I have access to cool scrap glass, like the antiqued mirror that I used to mosaic this tin star from my OTHER job...!  This was a fun project using a $3 star and scrap glass!

Vogue Kid's Socks

I finished my two-at-a-time pair of socks for my daughter in less than a week, the only problem is, is that I now need to make a matching pair!  This technique rocks!  It's quick and satisfying, and as any sockmaker knows, that means alot!!!

Vogue Knitting- New York City!

Last weekend I had the luck to be in NYC again for Vogue Knitting's NYC Confererence.  I love mingling with the knitting world's celebrities!  I took Melissa Leapman's Celtic Cables class and Melissa Morgan Oakes's Two-at-a-time Socks class, which now changes how I knit socks!  If you ever get the chance to attend these conferences, TRY!, because it's an amazing experience!  They will be in Chicago in October, hmmmmmm......

Jewelry Porn Birdcage

I found this birdcage waiting to be adorned with my pretties...   Sorry about the crooked pic, guess i was distracted by the goodies!

Bird Painting- Still Catching up!

Here is my grandmother's Xmas present, a bird painting to liven up her room at the Nursing Home.  It's made with acrylics, which I now remember that I HATE to work with, but at least it turned out OK...  Now I really want to get back into painting (but in oils!)

Catching Up - Virginia Tech socks!

Here's photos of my dad's christmas present- VT socks!  They took forever because I've been busy with my 3 jobs over the Xmas season.  They are just tube socks, since his foot is too huge to guess fitting...

Catching up! - Candy Cane door wreath

I'm sorry for the delay, but now I can finally catch up with all of my recent projects to share with you!

Here is a door hanging I made for my grandmother's door at the Nursing Home, made from fake candy canes and real mints- fun!
