Tell us about what we see in your photos. Most of my work begins in my backyard. I am lucky enough to have a half acre of land that I can plant flowers on all over!! And I do! I also like to jump in my car and find wildflowers growing naturally. I only pick…
Right now, all of my posts about food have the tag “food” whether or not I have included the recipe (or technique, as it sometimes is). If it has the recipe or technique, I also include “how-to” as a tag. But I also use “how-to” for tutorials like the jewelry storage board or recovering your…
I made this by embroidering on foam: And then I scanned it and made it into this: Which you can get by clicking here: download free valentine card. (The inside says “Just sayin’…”) Just open the PDF and print it out, then fold it into a card. I don’t have borderless printing, so I had…
1. Tell us about what we see in your photos. Well this is my sewing room…my little Camp Follower Studio. It was going to be a guest bedroom, but we figure no one is going to travel this far to see us, so I claimed it for myself. Basically it is shelves and shelves of…
Can you tell I’m trying to tie up loose blog ends? First the quilt, now the vanilla. In June, I started making vanilla extract … basically you just get an air-tight container, fill it with liquor (vodka, rum, or brandy are good choices) and stick in several split vanilla beans (just cut them lengthwise with…
1. Tell us about what we see in your photos. (Give us the tour!) Welcome to my craft area! This has been a work-in-progress since I began stamping and card-making around 3 years ago. I live in a 1-bedroom apartment so space is somewhat limited. As a result, my bedroom serves a dual purpose. My…
You know, I realized that I never updated about my quilt that I made in October!!! I teased you with cutesy illustrations but never showed you photos. So here they are! The binding turned out a little weird… but I think that’s largely because of the batting I used… which was pretty puffy, so it…
Tell us about what we see in your photos. (Give us the tour!) I’ve claimed the guest room/office in our house, and skillfully stowed at least 10 years of scrapbooking, stamping, jewelry making and painting supplies. My craft magazines have taken over the living room book shelves, although they’re carefully and secretly arranged in Ikea…
I was at work the other day when I thought of a hedgehog on a tire swing. I don’t think the children remind me of hedgehogs or anything like that… but children are cute and so are hedgehogs. And children like swinging on tire swings, and so do…um… hedgehogs? So maybe that’s part of it….
Give us the grand tour of your creative space. This photo was taken in the afternoon, which is my favorite time of day to be in here. We hung the curtains a bit lower than normal so that we would get sort of a “skylight” effect without sacrificing privacy. The sheer white curtains allow plenty…
Tell us about what we see in your photos. (Give us the tour!) My crafty room is north facing with good light, which is great! There is a small computer table where I craft. The main piece of the craft room is the cabinet. It has a curtain that I can close and cover all…
