Her ease with young children and her natural talent as a photographer resulted in beautiful, heirloom quality photos.” Leslie S.

A Beautiful Little House



This weekend we took the "back way" to get to my sister's house in Orange County. We went over the mountains and ended up making a day of getting there by stopping a lot along the way. At this adorable little antique shop Alex pointed out these wonderful wire hangers. I thought they'd be perfect as part of a mixed media art piece and couldn't wait to create my first one when we got home tonight. The detailed photos are blurry (you know, bad lighting and all) but you get the idea. It's 6" x 12" including the hanger. I really enjoyed adding layers upon layers of paper and stitching it together. I purchased a bag of lace at a thrift store this weekend while looking for parts to Alex's Halloween costume and before I made the lace flower, I hand dyed it in a mug of tea.  Tonight I also created a collage sheet of children's images and pretty sewing notions to use in your own artwork. Great things ahead for Love, Joleen and I can't wait to share! :)
