I’ve had a few people ask me if and when I’m going to sell the resin and alcohol ink petries. Well, I happen to have about 40 of them on hand, so I’m going to have a resin petri sale very soon! They all need some sanding and a second coat of resin to make them perfect and shiny, so I’ll be aiming for either Thanksgiving Day or the weekend after Thanksgiving (perhaps Small Business Saturday) to have them all ready to go. But in the meantime, I thought I’d give y&...

Projects haven’t been going well around here lately, so I needed to take a break and just do something fun and artistic. So I tried out an acrylic pour technique that I’ve seen others do lately called the “cloud effect”. As the name would suggest, it’s an effect caused by adding a certain paint (Decoart Americana Satin Enamel) to the white paint, and it creates these billowy clouds of white paint. And while I was at it, I also added a frame to my canvas. I love ...

Y’all, last week was frustrating one! It started with a pink living room drapery fail, followed by me catching a cold, then some sewing machine trouble, and a mystery ailment causing my dog tremendous pain that received a “best guess” diagnosis even after $650 worth of testing. So let me start at the beginning. My Pink Living Room Draperies If you’ll remember, I found the perfect fabric a few weeks ago for living room draperies. It’s this gorgeous soft pink fabr...

Yes, y’all, we’ve made a slight change to our plans yet again. Since we bought this house in 2013, we’ve been planning on using one of the bedrooms as a gaming room for Matt where he could set up all of his gaming consoles (he’s collected almost all of them from the very first Nintendo) to create some hybrid of a gaming room and museum. ?? He’s been excited about that plan, and I was perfectly willing for him to use a bedroom for that purpose. After all, I have ...

Y’all, I thought there was no possible way this was actually going to happen (which is why I was gearing up for another huge resin tile project), but it happened. I found THE PERFECT teal tile for our upcoming master bathroom remodel!! I had looked at sooooo many teal tiles (and supposedly teal tiles) and nothing was right. Don’t get me wrong. You can combine blue and green in just about any ratio, and I’ll love the color — everything from the lightest of aquas to the...

You guys, I did it! My first building project video! Many of you have been asking me for building project videos for years now, so when I built the second work table for my studio, I took a video of the whole process for you. You can see it here… And be sure to subscribe to my YouTube channel! Videos are a new thing for me, but it’s possible that I might start sharing some videos on my YouTube channel that won’t be shared on the blog. Anyway y’all, this building proje...

For over a decade now, it has been my dream to have a huge workroom table (or craft table) where I could spread out one full drapery panel without the fabric draping over the edge of the table. And now, I finally have that! Oh my goodness, this is 120 inches by 60 inches of glorious goodness right here. And if I’ve done my math right, that’s 50 square feet, y’all! I have been sewing draperies since around 2005, and never once have I had a proper table to work on. I’ve...
