ReUse, Recycle, and Reinvent

My Tin Can Tammy..........recycle and reinvent!  She is made out of a soup can....and ready for a rainy day.... she is still a work in progress but I like the way she turned out........stay tuned......

I love to create, create and create and it is never the same thing. One day I may work with re-using everyday items another day its torching something. But I seem to keep going back to the same theme. Kids. It started with my Circle of Love pendent (see my etsy store for a pic) because I couldn't find a pendent that I liked, that represented my kids. Now I just go kid crazy. I am having so much fun with this new line. I have included pics of my current work that will be posting to Etsy shortly. And, I have lots of new idea's to try out...just waiting on the supply fairy to arrive.

Have a great Monday...back to work I go....

Sunday Sunday

A view of my messy back yard....Can you hear the pitter patter of the rain??

Luke. A big snuggly love muffin.

It's Sunday morning......the house is soo quiet...kids are with their dad and I am taking a slow morning......Yesterday was such a productive day, filled an order with a new item . Love it...and will be posting pics shortly.

More later, but for now a view of what my morning is.......raining outside and babysitting our granddog........(the screaming cat disappeared. Guess the audience he had wasn't appreciative enough to his antics)

Missing the pic???

Just like I thought.....picture is missing.....lets try this again.

New Blog, lots of thoughts...PROCEED WITH CAUTION

My dream has always been to be an self supporting Artist. Well, with that said, reality got in the way. I took the path where I could make actual money to support a family. BUT, I am realizing life is pretty short, you never know what tomorrow with bring and its time to take the plunge and follow my heart. Money is not everything...I just need enough to support my family.

I love making jewelry. Wearable Art....I feel I am a little ADD when it comes to creating because there is so much out there, so many ideas, I sometimes find it hard to focus. I like to think of it as enthusiasim or excitement,

My favorite tool is my butane torch.....When I am having a tough day, I know that little torch is there for me to light up and melt something. OHHHH the therapy bills that has saved me!!

OK...enough rambling for now. Today I want to show you something I made.....FYI....I am new at this blogging and not sure on the technical aspects...so picture may show up somewhere else.............

It's a new beginning!

Welcome.......My first post! Wow....I have been wanting to start a blog for sometime now. I love reading other people's blogs. It makes you feel more connected and not alone in the world, which we all feel at times.

More later but just wanted to say HI!
