Mosaics

A few of my pieces.

New up-cycled ideas!

A few of my recent re-purposed ideas. A Santa shovel with a door knob nose and candlestick eyes, two upside sewing machine drawers with a mirror on one and a clock on the other. Lastly, the hand mirrors are two mirrors with a butter knife sandwiched between them. A little brainstorming and junk can go a long way.

Garden tools make lovely accents in the garden too!

Reggie... Ronald? My rooster boy

Finally a picture with the rooster in place!

Ok here he is!  He's been in my head since January and I didn't get rolling on him until  May.  He will find his home in a kitchen, in a beautiful country home, installed as a back splash piece. After he's installed, I will do another post with him in his roost!

Hibernation

Hibernation, cabin fever, winter blahs, I'm trying to convince myself that maybe these are the reasons my productivity level is lower this time of year. Sept.- Dec. are usually so busy for me that I just tell myself I need this down time to make up for it. It's not like the ideas stop coming, just harder to pull them off. Also,Pinterest certainly captured my relaxation time. Very addicting!With Spring on the horizon and lots of ideas on the brain. I look forward to creating even more.

Ireland

Loved my trip of a lifetime! Ireland was so fabulous and filled me with endless inspiration. The Dingle coast, Bunratty Castle, a megalithic tomb near the Burren and a ruin from the cemetery in which John O'Donohue is buried, are some of my favorites photos from over the 400 that I took. Ireland is such a beautiful country filled with lovely people.
