Even when it comes to crafts I'm a little all over the place! Some of the items are created for sale at seasonal craft markets, some are pieces for gifts and some are just because. Everything is handmade by me at the kitchen table and most items are one of a kind.
I use a variety of materials and try to use recycled items whenever possible.

Hand Painted Bottles
These are GREAT, especially during the holidays! I like that you can put them in places where you wouldn't want to leave a candle on. They look great mixed in with your holiday decor. Best thing, they cost next to nothing to make! Lights can be added for more effect.
I've played with a few different design ideas. The bottles can be painted with acrylic paint as detailed as you'd like. Take the bottle to another level and stuff the inside with things you'd like to peek through. I've used faux greenery, berries and other seasonal decor to give the bottles a unique look. |
Ornaments
I think ornaments are one of my favorite things to create! Most of the ornaments are made using a variety of materials including recycled bits. After I have made a set of ornaments I like to design a card to display them nicely for sale. Card designing is actually pretty easy and printing reasonable.

Napkin Rings
Challenged to create something unique I turned to my other passion, entertaining! I've always enjoyed throwing a party and love to carry through with a theme. Taking the stretch bracelet off the arm and onto the table was a simple and inexpensive way to custom create any table theme I wanted. These napkin rings are handmade using a variety of different materials and each set is unique! Most are created as six piece sets but similar color patterns allow to add more settings if needed.
I can create custom designed rings just for you!
