I’ve set aside my art journals for the time being and have been pursing other ideas. Upcycling for instance. T-shirts have been my material of choice. Dog chews and baby bibs are the result. No dogs or babies are in our future…whew…just had to put that out there.
The bottle caps that everyone has been saving for me are sorted for a garden art project.
I’ve been using the big machinery in the garage to help me out. I love using the power tools. 
I’ve also been turning out stacks and stacks of cards….no surprise there.
Basic utilitarian items have been created as well…I made 2 printer covers from a blackout curtain. The thickness of the backed fabric gave it the perfect amount of stiffness.
How’s that for being random!?!
I’ll be taking my sewing machine out soon to do some repairs and make an appliance cover. I also hope to sew some ornaments and snowmen. Are you planning another mobile like the one in your header with the bottle caps?
Random is right. But I like it all. I especially like the fixtures you created to hold your lids in place. Is that a can lid in the first drill photo? I’m a big fan of power tools, too. Wish I had your set-up. Of course, I wish I could sew a bit like you, too. You make such unique and awesome things.
No dog in the future, huh? Gracie and Bleubeard are both happy to hear that!
Halle – you have been a busy lady! I am intrigued by this garden project! Your cards look great and I”m impressed you made a cover for your printer! Thanks for stopping by my blog this weekend – I’m glad everyone is getting a kick out of my cat book! 🙂
