New Paintings Now in my ETSY Shop

These two new paintings are now listed in my ETSY shop. The colors on these two are so bright and happy!

Eric, 10" x 10", Acrylic on canvas (*SOLD)

Olivia, 10" x 10", acrylic on canvas (*SOLD)

Aren't they an attractive couple? They are listed separately, but I think there is some chemistry there between them.

New Teacher Name Sign

These are going in the mail/being delivered this morning. Teacher name signs are always available in my ETSY shop.

New Uses - A Crafty Tip

You know those little scoops you get in laundry detergent? They make the best little containers for beads! I use them whenever I make beaded socks or when I am doing my name sign hangers. They are easy to pour back into the bead bag or container and they can stack on each other and hold the beads in. And the best thing is I get a new one every 40 loads! :)

And This One is All For Me

How fun is this little Bunny Nugget? The pattern is from Rebecca Danger and I'll tell you, I'm more than a little in love with all of her crazy creations!!

Made this one just for me. Not sure what I'll do with him. I may put him on my nightstand. Wouldn't this be a fun face to wake up to?

Next my daughter suggested making a little chick like this so it can be called a....you guessed it-- chicken nugget!! :) Clever girl.

BTW, I have actually been doing A LOT of painting this week. I've finished up several paintings that were in the "half done" phase and now I have several more in the "almost done" phase. I'll post them soon...

An Alien Encounter

It's rare that I can find a knitting project that my son will be excited about. So when I saw this pattern for a little alien, I knew I had to make it--with SEVERAL modifications. I added arms to mine so he could be holding this sign when I set him outside my son's door last night. My son woke up to find this little guy waiting for him in the hall this morning.

New Name Signs

These new name signs are going in the mail this morning.

This Teacher Name Sign is for a teacher who loves Starbust candies. That's where the color scheme came from. Isn't it juicy? :)

And this sign is to add to some connected signs I made a few months ago. This is a new addition to the family.



All personalized Name Signs are available in my bumblebina ETSY shop.

IF - Hierarchy

You may be bigger, but I'm taller.

This is my entry for Illustration Friday this week. The theme is hierarchy.

A Baby Gift

This was a gift for a friend's baby shower last night. I can finally post about it now that's it's out the door and in it's new home. This fun little set has been making me smile all week. The hat is from a pattern in Susan Anderson's Itty Bitty Hats. And I just had to make socks to match!
