I've been working on several projects for an upcoming show, but my favorite project has been my canvas transfer. I started with a box of 4 canvases I bought at a garage sale. I'm always on the hunt for art supplies at garage sales.cheap! I think the box was marked low because of the "guidelines" that were already stamped on the canvases. I quickly covered the lines with Gesso so they wouldn't bleed through on my final project. Place your ph...

Sunday, September 25, 2011. O Lord, you have examined my heart. And know everything about me. You know when I sit down or stand up. You know my thoughts even when I’m far away. You see me when I travel. And when I rest at home. You know everything I do. You know what I am going to say. Even before I say it, Lord. You go before me and follow me.

                                        Tuesday, January 31, 2012. I love blue dishes.but my all time favorite is a set my husband gave me for Christmas in 1983. They are called "Denmark", and are made by Franciscan. Originally I received 8 place settings and a few serving pieces. But with all things we love.this pattern has been discontinued. I found these three pieces in a resell shop last week. The egg cups are not marked, however the tea pot is made by Furnivals and is also called Denmark. I love all these pieces used together. So many nam...

                                        I found this little gem along the curb! I'm sure they threw it out because of the old, dirty formica top! A fresh coat of paint, some dark glaze and decoupage over the formica! This old piece was badly scarred on the top and the finish was scratched. A complete sanding across the top and light sanding all over. I also decoupaged some scrapbook paper over the top, then glued a cut out of the little boy on top of that! I used Fragile Crackle over the whole top to give it a really aged effect.

                                        Sunday, May 13, 2012. A Mother . . . When you are a child, she walks before you, to set an example. When you are a teenager, she walks behind you, to be there should you need her. When you are an adult, she walks beside you, so that you can enjoy life together." Author unknown. Links to this post.

It just felt right. Sometim...

I took him to our monthly vintage sale here in McKinney, TX called The Old Red Lumberyard, and he was admired and fawned over but returned to my humble abode. Sam went to his new digs, a young man who is proud to be a Texan. I hope he enjoys this chest and I'm on the lookout for a new piece that just might get another of our Texas flags. I purchas...
