Little Break



Noticed I haven't been doing much?

I've been sicky again! It's going to be quite some time before I am better so I made a decision to put everything on hold. This is really hard for me because I am all about everything I do. I haven't been able to do any artwork, new home projects and art shows because of what's going on. My doctor is still trying to pinpoint the exact problem and get my body back to tip top sawing, painting and paper cutting status. So for right now that's my main focus...thanks for keeping up with me. Once I get back to being me I have so much planned to do... you're just going to LOVE it!

Topiary DIY Love


I wanted some topiary's I found at a home decor store but they were $149.00 each...ouch, considering I needed two. So me being me I went on the hunt and I ran across these canisters for $5.00 each, on sale!! Then I found these metal thing-a-ma-bobs at Hobby Lobby for $10.00 each. So I was up to $15.00 each which was awesome because I still needed the ivy. I found some super cheap at Michael's because they were on clearance.

my Ivy...

my canister and metal thingy...


I used Epoxy to attach them together...


then I ran the ivy around and around and ta-da!...my two topiary's for $21.00 each!
