Creative Stuff

I hope everyone enjoyed Father's Day! My husband got a smoker and had the neighborhood begging for meat with the smell of it cooking all day!

Rachel and I saw this idea in a magazine...so I gave it a whirl. It hangs inside a bookcase, in my studio. The paint set is from Vintiques. Chari found an extra large one and Shelia put it in my bag. TREASURE!!!!! It will always make me think of the two creative souls that they are! I hot glued favorite found objects...most from Vintiques. I did stamp a favorite Inka stamp on it...."Think Outside the Box". Just looking at it inspires me.


We are all artist gently guided by our Master's hand, painting a vision called life. The blending of colors like joy, sorrow, wisdom, and love inspires us to create a magnificent masterpiece of self.-La Tourelle

LOVE what you did with a discarded watercolor paint set. I see familiar things assembled....some I've held on to for 10+ years. A true sucker for little things.
