Christmas came and went in a flurry of wrapping paper and car rides here and there. We all got the flu, which made the holidays rather hard to enjoy at times. But...crafting fever has struck me again and I have been making more jewelry than ever and my brain is going a mile a minute. I haven't taken pictures of my recent stuff yet, but I did two little paintings (two in a series so far) and experimented with the glories of lacquer and polymer clay. I found out how much i hate firing glass on kiln shelf paper (it makes for yucky backs and sharp edges) and mostly, I have a crap ton of ideas for Etsy stuff and also the makings of summer workshops with my mother. Yes, I will be putting together several crafting/jewelry workshops for young kids to make their own stuff.
Between the felted hairclips, polymer clay and glass pendants, the stencil ideas, and some knitting goodness....I'm staying true to my 2009 crafting promise to make sure I do something artsy every week. Right now, it's almost been every day!!! That feels so good.
pictures to come very soon.
