I made this years ago in college as an assignment in my printmaking class. It's about my grandmother's death from cancer and a car accident. It was one of the coolest things I've ever done. The first picture is paint and so is the second. The third picture is all magazine cutouts. I scanned myself and various objects....and added a filter to the photos so I could split up the various areas of color. The first picture represents the anger I had....."The Virus" is a band that I used to listen to all the time and represents the cancer well. The second photo represents the sad acceptance to it all....and the third picture is about mourning her death.
This is a collage I made years ago too. I love to cut out pictures and words out of magazines. This was in my sketchbook and I took a picture of it.
These are the same words from the collage above, just stamped. I love how the stamped letters look.
This is a bracelet that I made yesterday. I love the red wire....it's different and fun.
I've been wanting to make jewelry with ribbon for quite some time and this was my first attempt. I made it yesterday. I think it's pretty.
A while back Nate and I got a free "Sons of Anarchy" bandana from Harley Davidson for something or another. I've been holding onto it for a long time until I could figure out what I wanted to do with it. I finally used it as a giant patch on a bag that I made for myself. I love this thing! And it's an excellent show.
Let me know what you think of this stuff so far. I still have a bunch of earrings I need to get pictures of and put on here. I hope you're all well. Take care!

New Items for Craft Fair
Hey everyone! I've been working like a mad woman on some more goodies to sell at the upcoming craft fair. Here are some pictures of just a few of the things that I've made. I hope you like them! Cherry earrings!
Two of the new necklaces I've made.
I've also made some more magnet sets. Here are some flowers, baseballs, and ladybugs. I've also made some ladybug pins.
These are some cute little wallet-type things I've sewn up. Really cute and can slip in your pocket.
Another new necklace!

Greenfield High School Craft Fair (Oct. 10, 2009)
Hello everyone! I am so excited to let you all know that I've gotten a booth at the Greenfield High School Craft Fair. It's going to be on October 10th, 2009, from 9am - 3pm. Because I've been wanting to sell just from my blog and not the etsy.com site anymore, I've taken my items off of etsy and will be selling them at the craft fair. I've posted a lot of pictures of different items that are examples of my work...some of which will be for sale at the craft fair. I hope you come out and check it out!
