Today...

Well The Graffiti Crazy Happy Bunny bag was put in the shop today.  Right now I'm working on a clear tote bag and some odds and ends. I'll have it up soon as I'm done. Now here is one of my keychains I didn't make it today. This or last month. It is so cute I might keep this too. This is Happy Bear. The back has a crazy, colorful pumpkin like design with a star! A great way to personalize your keys!

Hot Pink Smiley compact mirror

This item is for sale now on my Etsy.    http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?ref=vl_other_2&listing_id=43010440   It's hot pink polymer clay with glass bead detailing. Cute and functional! And sure to brighten up your day. You might wonder why I'm making this stuff. Thing is I'm always making something. Painting, scrapbooking, etc.  I can't spot myself. In school I drew all over my bookcovers and notebooks. I loved to play basketball and I drew all over my ball with a Sharpie and coated it with clear nail polish. In the Army I drew with pastels (I love oil pastels) and charcoal and used acrylics and found my love of oil paint. I have sold some paintings at Absolute Abstract in Philadelphia. That was awesome and scary. My life was crazy for awhile so I had to take time off of my gallery ambitions but... finally last summer I said I have to just go for it. So now, when I can and am feeling up to it. I will create these fun, one of a kind pieces to share with...
