Experiments

The busy keeps on going! Working on some of the final projects for Steamcon and my Client.  I also played for the first time with the idea of printing on fabric from a printer using freezer paper. I want to do clothing tags for my work and I love the idea of being able to design my own patches, etc.

This was just test number one, I used old fabric I had around and simple vectors for a project I am working on.  It was to light of a fabric and one sheet had a problem with the printer because of that. You also have to worry a lot about making sure that the whole sheet is cut as exact as possible. I'm still going to use the sheets I have printed, I kind of like the way they turned out!


Im gonna go pick up some other fabric and try again tomorrow!

Not a calm day in sight!

I have been super busy this week trying to finish some projects up before Steamcon! I have also been invited to be on board with this years Addy Awards committee! I am super excited to be a part of it all!

I did have some downtime today to play with some older photos I took.

Inspirations for Today

I haven't had a lot of time to do projects for myself for a little while, and I think that it messes with me.
I love running my shop and I love my clients, getting to do what I want and get paid is so great! But between all that and trying to get my branding for myself and my business done, and school, sometimes you just can't wait till you can get a little alone time with your creativity
Soon though I'll have a slight bit more time for myself, and hope to get some new items and projects going!

Till then, I just keep collecting images, sketches and ideas!

Lockets

Etsy has me in constant need of things! Lately it has been glass bottles and containers and lockets.
It started with a perfume locket I got in my great-grandfathers things. And again with this locket that I got at a local antique store. Now I just want them all!

Vintage Avon locket ring.


Folding Lockets

Lovers Lockets

Book lockets

Glass "lockets"







Its an obsession! So if anyone needs to get me a gift, they are all in my favorites on my etsy! :)

New items in the shop!

One handmade and a couple vintage items in the shop!

Slow week!

This week has been the least productive in quite a while, but I have gotten a few things done. More things will be added to the shop this weekend, like these:
I definitely am making a pair for myself. All the beads and buttons are vintage from my great-grandpa's stuff. The beads are green glass and the buttons are vintage metal and rhinestone!

I'll leave you with a random photo i found on my camera:

-Till tomorrow!
