I am an eclectic artist... i do it all... paint sew, rubber stamp, quilt, make jewelry. I love stuff... I really enjoy reusing things my favorite haunts are thrift shops for cool clothing to revamp or alter, and flea markets for quirky items. I am hopelessly an unorganized hoarder.. still dillusional enough to think i will eventually get it together. While my projects are often large...The work space on my desk is usually about 4 inches by 4 inches!

Contemporary Christian and just about anything i can actually understand the words. I even like the show tunes and when cleaning the house Doris Day! ( i feel more like June Cleaver then)
Misc stuff: I am allergic to pineapple..I love charms of anything, glass beads, vintage fabrics and bits of glitzy fabrics to add to my crazy quilts, images of women on paper or fabric..vintage themes of cherries, bluebirds, scottie dogs, mermaids seahorses, pin up girls and sailors, also... red tomato pin cushions! older the better...

I love the movies nearly anything aside from sci fi and monster movies...We are a big movie family and collect movie theater things.. like i have lots of items that would be used to decorate the refreshment stand... Pop corn containers, boxes that look like candy boxes just fun stuff...remember the dancing hot dogs? that sort of fun stuff.

I have become in my 40s.. a reality show junkie... Survivor, amazing race... project runway.... and anything regarding decorating, and or collecting and selling junk... and don\'t we all think we could host our own HGTV show? I watch way too much tv.. mostly for the "company" as I am home alone all day... playing in my art studio or doing some clothing revamping in my sewing room between loads of laundry and figuring what to make for dinner

So many... I really enjoying just about anything but I usually tweek things and do it my own way... I would love to learn to do glass blowing and welding but for now... everything else. I especially like remaking thrift store clothing into one of a kind clothing... I am sure my artsy clothing would not go over well on WHAT NOT TO WEAR but I love being the eclectic wild woman. Kimonos over my black leggings and black T , or using parts of mens ties to make a breezy rich fringe to lengthen a jean jacket that i have appliqued a vintage needle point pillow panel on the back.... I tend to be attracted to all things ethnic or handmade that i can craft with ( not decor..Thats all american 40's 50s fun)newspapers in foreign languages, cool embroidered bits vintage magazines... I love to embellish anything... so buttons, ribbons, game pieces, beads of all kinds... unique paper or bits of cool fabric... lately...my sewing room despite my colorful wardrobe created there.. has been gaining a pink and mossy shabby chic look..
