Watch OUT . . . . .

I have a new concept for all of you who love to make your home decor!

Design Your Own Layered Elements

For years, I have been designing patterns that took all of the guessing and experimentation
out of the process of making something that was uniquely yours!

I realize that I am still providing elements, but what you do
with them is now entirely up to you!
The colors you use, the layers you use, the embellishments you use,the layout you use.

Do I offer layout ideas? Yes, but only a few such as: Coasters, Ornaments, Penny Rugs, Table Runners, Twirlies, and these are only to get you started.

I do not suggest color, but I do give you some techniques to help you
figure out color variations.
You also receive an Embroidery and Color Idea page to help you
with designing your layered element.

Most of the Design Your Own Layered Elements Collections will
be compatible with each other, although there will be some elements in a
collection that don’t quite fit in another collection.
But, it’s still fun to have all of them!

I have many more Design Your Own Layered Elements Collections, coming!!!!

Leaves, leaves and more . . . LEAVES

Yes! I absolutely love leaves and these are no exception!

I knew I was in trouble when Gary and I decided to make these ~ I want them all!!!

The wonderful thing about these leaves is I can use them
everywhere in my house, outside too, if I choose!

I have one hanging from my ceiling light/fan in
my dining room and on a cabinet door knob.

I think the best is on my sliding glass door ~ every time I open the
door, the leaves sway! What fun is that!

 





Please, take a look at our ETSY Store!
And thanks!

Have a wonderful day!

Busy Summer . . .

Well, like so many people our summer has been very busy,
but we've enjoyed every minute!

Once it cooled down enough to get out into the wood studio,
Gary started scrolling up a storm!

Gary has a wonderful eye for choosing just the right wood and grain
for his projects. The projects this time have been
Oak and Maple Leaves that I designed.
Each piece is sanded, scrolled, then sanded again and buffed.
 
We have used these leaves as "confetti" on our table as a decoration, we have
resin on the top of some, but with collection of leaves, we have made
beautiful Wearable Art! Each leaf has a jewelry pin glued to the back.
 
They look fabulous on scarves, sweaters and jackets, but they are
equally wonderful on jacket lapels, and on ties as a tie tac!
Great as boutonnieres for fall weddings too.
I have mine on my backpack.
