The First Time's Always the Hardest



Well, well where to begin? I decided to start this blog for two reasons. 1) I wanted a place to showcase my latest craft projects. 2)I needed a place to talk about how just about everything I see inspires me.


So this is how it's gonna work. I'll post pics of things I've made and or the objects(people, places) that inspired them.




Well since we have now entered the Year of the Rat. I present the "Good Luck" choker. I recently made a pair of earrings and a brooch out of Chinese coins as well.







Right now most of my inspiration comes from the world of interior design. I found a whole bunch of T-shirt stencil ideas in the textbook for my History of Costumes and Furnishings class.

Gothic stained glass window motifs seem to be perfect for making really cool t-shirts.


I really want to use the large circle as a stencil. I m not sure if I'll use different colors (like a stained glass window) or if I'll bleach it out. I'll try both and post the results.
