Yes, yes. I have been busy

Mid May already.  Thinking we still have April showers, that are bringing May flowers, making the garden grow and let's me stay inside and be creative! However, the sun is missed but we are promised a very nice Mother's day weekend ahead.  Thus, wishing any Mother's that read this a lovely day.

We are experimenting with the alcohol ink ceramic tiles to see if they will withstand intense heat.  If so, have larger ones that could be used as a trivet.  Will let you know if that's a make, or a break.  Having low inventory for the website store, just finished a few new coaster sets to add in that department.  
Yes, I have been lax in keeping up fresh merchandise and paying attention to promoting as intended.  A fresh start.  Again.







Then let's add a couple new collage, because they are just plain fun for me.  Never, never throw anything away.  One does not know when perhaps the rag or paper towel you have been sopping paint up with might be the perfect accent needed for another layer!   A piece of lace here and a piece of lace there, smudge some paint just right for composition and to coordinate colors, coat with layer of medium.  Opps. Forgot to place letters for a special saying or quote.  Layer, layer, layer.  One on top of another as many times as it takes to have an ah ha moment and say, DONE!

Two more await to be finalized and uploaded in a blog post and then into the website store.  I see little action from the Website.  Since shows for myself are few and far between, I confess to feeling disappointed.  Selling from the comfort of home with a trip to the post office would be soooo convenient.  
In an effort to aid others in their attempts to do the same please do be sure, when you have the time, to peruse the links page.  There are some very lovely handcrafted and artistic items available from your recliners....now that online shopping has become the trend.  From time to time a new source is added.  Soon we will have to build an addition!!

Thank you, for stopping by, taking time to read when you have your own busy schedule.  Until next time....enjoy.
P.S.  please excuse my cranky computer--it seems to think it knows the best layout no matter what I say!
