Hello, my name is Deb and I have always liked art, I am self taught mostly, have taken some local art classes just for fun. I sew, enjoy all kinds of crafts, do photography and cake decorating. I also enjoy altered art, assemblages and making things with "junk"! I don't knit! But I do own a scroll saw and know how to use it! Recycling vintage jewelry is fun! A little bling never hurts anyone, neither does rust!

Married for 32 years, 2 wonderful grown children!I attended a vocational school for sewing. I used an oil can for a collage project for creative writing during the energy crisis in the 70's, I got an A and the teachers asked if he could keep it to show as an example in future classes. At the age of 19; I designed and made my wedding gown. I was a stay at home Mom with a small craft show business. Now I work at a school, the kids are moved out of the house and I am enjoying making things again. I like different, creative things that are simple and fun!

So if anyone sends me a pink monkey eating green chocolate with a cherry on top, who is talking on a telephone you probably will not get a ♥ from me!
