Hi all. I'll be taking a little Christmas break from the blog for a few days. The family's all here and we're having fun. I may still do some sporadic posting here and there. I wanted to wish everyone Happy Holidays! See you again soon!

These pillows go with my "reused items" theme from yesterday. They are made out of old feed bags by Rebecca Tegtmeyer of SOWN. I love their subtle worn colors. See many more on the SOWN Etsy site.

I absolutely love the idea of making something beautiful out of found materials or trash. Artist, Dolan Geiman does such a wonderful job of it with his collage and mixed media pieces. That horse with all the different papers/locks/keys is gorgeous! See much more on his blog, website and etsy store.

On Indie Fixx, and a sketchbook






I'm featuring some items in the Indie Fixx Galleria this holiday season and they featured my little pink Alphabet Bear on their blog yesterday. They also showed several pics from my studio. So if you'd like to take a peak into my workspace, you can see pics here. Lastly, I wanted to share a new little product that I'm playing around with. If you've purchased a Kitty from me, you know that I draw a little kitty image on my packaging. Well, I had a stack of sketchbooks laying around so I thought I'd make these little Kitty Sketchbooks based on those drawings. So here are the first two, gold kitty and blue kitty. They are hand-embroidered and then permanently glued onto the sketchbook. I'm excited about them and can't wait to make more.
