Coffee Break




Many of the pieces I make are the result of custom requests. I love doing custom work. It is great to try new things. I've done many custom trees, flowers, birds and nursery pieces. Once in awhile, I have a request to try something really different. Recently, I had the great opportunity to make desert landscapes for a friend of mine who lives in Tucson. So much fun working with an entirely different color scheme and different plants and trees! My latest request was for some coffee themed pieces. Now, I love coffee, so I was excited to give it a try. I love the results! Favorite Orange Mug and Favorite Blue Mug are so fun and would be a perfect addition to a kitchen or office! I've also been using alot of metallic paints lately. I am loving all the different shimmery hues. Coffee on Copper shows off one of my favorite new metallic paints. So much fun to try something new!

Pinecone Tree


One of my newest pieces, Pinecone Tree, makes me feel so warm and cozy. It is especially nice to gaze at as I sit here blogging during a cold, and very windy storm! Fall is definitely here and this piece has all of the best in autumnal colors. Great texture, really fun patterns and cozy colors! Gotta love it.
I am getting ready for a couple of shows next month, so there are many, many new pieces in the works. Will be posting some of my favorites soon. Happy fall!

Bewitching Halloween Trio





Happy Halloween! I love this time of the year! I have all of my own Halloween decorations out and it seems that I can never have enough! I was inspired to create these Halloween pieces- best together - celebrating everything I love about Halloween- witches, spooky fun, and, of course, a bit of sparkly glamour! Don't settle for the same old decorations from the discount store- add something special and unique to make a great Halloween statement! Bewitching Halloween Trio is fun and fabulous!
