Trip to Savannah, GA

This past week I have been busy and haven't posted, but I haven't forgotten about my blog. I have still been listing on Ebay and am going to list more today.

I am also planning a vacation (hopefully) to Savannah, GA. I have never been to Savannah so this will be a new spot for me. I hear that it is beautiful and cannot wait to see the southern oak trees. I also want to go on a ghost tour, spend some time at the beach, and walk to river walk.

I am still researching the city but am getting excited about visiting.

DIY glass tile pendant kit

A couple weeks ago I saw a tutorial on how to make glass tile pendants with art on them and decided to give it a try.

It seemed easy enough and I have always loved making jewelry, so I decided to combined my art with jewelry making. So many artists do this and I think it is a great idea. Not everyone can afford to pay for an original painting but, a necklace may be affordable.

I purchases the DIY kit (shown above) from ebay buyer gaila6870 and I am so happy with the items I received. I recommend buying from her. She sells all different jewelry supplies and also scrabble tile kits.

What was included in the kit, were 5 square glass tiles and bails, 1 round glass tile and ring, flower pattern paper, diamond gaze, and E600. You get everything you need to create your own pendants.

New art store in South Buffalo

I wanted to write about a new store that I will be having some stuff in. The store is called Blue Eye Creations and is having its grand opening on April 17, 2010. This new boutique is located in the heart of South Buffalo, NY.

The store is going to be carrying arts and crafts from many talented local Buffalo artists. I will have some of my 'Droopy Heart' dolls and some 4"x6" fine art prints on display.

So if you are in the Buffalo, NY area stop by and support our local art community.

Hope to see you there =)

My rose petal lamp shade

Last month I wrote about my lamp shade that was stained and how I planned to fix it with fake rose petals. Well, I finished the lamp shade and I am very happy with how it turned out. I wanted to shear with you the finished products.

I hot glued cream and pink rose petals to the shade and finished the top of the shade with a light violet ribbon. Hope you like =)

Happy Easter

I hope that everyone has a happy and lovely Easter.
