Painted Some Jewelry



I finally dug out some old wooden jewelry to paint. I separated the big hoops and made two different pairs of earrings from them.

The paper clay pieces, I am still working on. I haven't done anything but prime the wooden bangle. I will work on those this weekend, hopefully.

Blue Banana Dangles!



This is the top part of the old wooden hoops and some cool blue banana shapes from a vintage necklace. I like these a lot.

Hoops


These are the bottom part of the old hoop earrings. I love to splatter paint!

New Earrings


The hoops I splatter painted. The top part of the old hoops I used to make another pair of earrings. I painted them robin's egg blue. Then I used sparkly nail polish on them. I used parts of a funky old necklace that looked like blue bananas for the dangles.

I like both pairs!

Cleaned the Workspace!!

I am so happy! I got my work area newly organized, cleaned........ready to go! I am so very ready to start creating something........anything.

I just got back from a small vacation with my daughter and grandsons. We went to Georgia. It was colder than in Ohio. I got my taxes done, finally......that was doing me in. My father-in-law is doing pretty well on his chemo.......all is pretty good at the moment. I have no excuses for not getting something done.

My biggest problem now is what to start with......jewelry......painting.....sewing?

I will post something soon about "some" project. All you wonderful, artistic people keep me inspired at all times. Thanks so much.

Some of My Pink Stash




Here are a few things from my "pink" stash. I love pink. I am trying to find my purple stash. I used a lot of that on my daughter's heart I made, but I know I have more somewhere!

Pink and Purple

I haven't had time to make anything new for while, so I thought I would just post some pink and purple jewelry! It made me feel like I did something anyways.

I want to make some eggshell earrings for Easter.......so I am thinking pink and purple.

Have a great day.

Holding Pattern

I haven't been here to talk in awhile. I miss it.

I have a very sick father-in-law, so I won't be here much for awhile. If anyone has any great, inspiring ideas that I can "think" about while I am at the hospital, let me know. My brain never shuts off, for sure.

I tried to get the butcher paper the other day, but couldn't find it. So, I am still thinking about that. I will try to at least check in once and awhile till the crisis passes.

Any good creative ideas you guys have, gives me something to think about.

Also, I was just over on ElizabethCreates.blogspot.com. She is having a giveaway of a beautiful Heart Quiltie. I am inspired everytime I go to her blog. If you have never checked it out, today is the day. I would love to win the heart. It is GREAT.

Thanks!

Butcher Paper

Has anyone ever done any printing or painting on butcher paper. I have some ideas, but didn't want to invest 20.00 on a huge roll of paper until I was sure if it was good to work with.

What did you do with the papers after you painted them?
