do what you love ~ love what you do...

... a wonderful thrill at every step..
isn't that when you know you're doing what you love ?
Custom work can be such fun...a chance to create something totally new that you never thought of yourself.
My most recent custom order turned out this way. I needed to take this saying




and recreate it into a time worn, chippy sign with glitter & applique...
a few convo's later...voila!



This came out so neat & I just love the saying...it may be in my store soon!
Thanks Lynn for being such a wonderful custom order customer!

when the terrible aroma of burnt garlic hit me.
lesson here, i'm sure of it!

{summertime blues}


the best blues you can get!
the clouds have parted and we're in for a beautiful 4th weekend.
Blueberries are freshly picked and I'll be making...
{yum!}
Happy 4th to all my American bloggers & Happy Canada Day to those up north!
