    T Tuesday: internet interuptus edition

    I’m going to keep today’s edition of T stands for Tuesday very brief as I’m not sure when my cable modem will reboot again. Hopefully this issue will be resolved after the service tech comes out today.

    Until then…I’m working around the house and drinking my green monster smoothie for a nutrient and protein punch this morning.

    Hopefully I’ll be able to do some visiting later on today…

    What are you up to?

    Many irons in the fire

    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.20140920_7030

    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. 20140920_7029

    I’ve also been turning out stacks and stacks of cards….no surprise there.20140920_7036

    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!?!

    Look what I found today….

    I am so excited about the deal I got at a garage sale today…only $7

    20140918_7025A rotating rack for my greeting cards. It will work perfect for craft sales!
    In the past I’ve had my cards in a photobox with theme dividers. When cards are displayed on a rack they invite you to come and check them out instead of flipping through a box.

    It comes apart into 4 pieces for storage, although the pieces are pretty big. Good thing I’m in the middle of reorganizing, right!?!
