made a quick card for a young friend’s bar mitzvah the other day… once again it’s just a quick photo taken with my phone- i’m on instagram now, too! if you’re interested my username is “miromadethis”
hope everyone has a good monday!
Back to blogging- hope everyone had a good holiday season… I get so burnt out with all of the holiday madness that I end up needing to take a break. Anyway, happy new year and here’s a quick shot of a turntable card that I made for a friend’s birthday- he’s a dj. I literally made it a half hour before his party, so there wasn’t time to take a good photo, but you get the idea.
I’ve posted the last of the new holiday cards at the shop– check them out when you get a chance. If you’re a local, you can also check them out in person, during the holiday shows I’m in this year- crafeteria (Dec. 6), Blackbird Holiday Bazaar and Exhibition (December 7- Jan 4) and People Still Need Presents (Dec. 8)
Here’s a photo of a few of the new cards…
Here’s a couple of custom birthday cakes I’ve made recently- I’m pretty happy with how they turned out- sometimes this sort of thing can get a little too busy, and I really like to keep things clean and minimal (my husband would say something about wishing the house was like that too)!
The busy season has started for me- here’s a couple of photos of some cards for current orders… Hope everyone’s autumn is going well. We’ve finally dipped below the 100 degree mark, which in Phoenix, means fall- yay!
each one a little bit different, each one a little bit the same.
just a few more of the little zip pouches I’ve been sewing- including some that I got my mother to paint (she’s a painter). They’ll be up for grabs in a couple of days…
I’ve been doing a little sewing this summer. I love textiles, and it gives me a chance to play with a different set of colors and aesthetics. I like to think that taking time to work with something new and different gives me a chance to stretch my mental wings a bit, and helps bring a new focus back to my other work. Here’s a little preview- I’ll have some stuff for sale too in a little bit…
People always ask how long it takes me to bend something- I never have a good answer… but I can tell you that this pile of wire was made during a 30 minute meeting…
