My new favorite toy: a Fuseworks microwave kiln.
I did a fun post about how to make this pendant necklace using a quotation from Oz The Great And Powerful and it has gotten a really positive response (so thank you for that) but what it has also gotten was a whole lot of questions about the Fuseworks Microwave Kiln that I used to make […]
“Oz the Great and Powerful” inspired pendant necklace.
I recently received a fun challenge: I was given a copy the new Blu-ray Combo Pack for Oz the Great and Powerful. I was asked to watch it, then to create something that was inspired by the adventures in the Land of Oz. Well, let me tell you that visually, this movie is stunning. […]

These would be perfect for a beach themed wedding or just casual summer time dinner with friends. This post contains Amazon or other affiliate links. I am fortunate enough to live near the beach and can […]
An easy ombre globe.
I love this little globe I picked up at a yard sale a few years ago. I have transformed it a couple of times over. It’s had two Halloween make-overs and been repainted for Valentine’s Day. I have another project coming up, but in the meantime, I got a wild hair and decided to do […]

Easy antique wash for distressed artwork.
I make “subway” or typographic artwork on a fairly regular basis. I am not too precise about the process, which is why I love the, um, distressed look. Distressing artwork that is less than perfect covers a multitude of sins and makes it a “I meant to do that” finished product. Here are a few […]
Sea-Inspired DIY Candle Holders (Made from glass jars & paper napkins.)
A few weeks ago I bought some cool paper napkins on a trip to Roger’s Gardens in Newport Beach, CA. I used them to make invitations to our Mother’s Day Brunch, and in keeping with that theme and color palette, I decided to make some DIY candle holders using the same napkins and Mod Podge. This […]
A beachy bookcase makeover.
I have been wanting to replace the little secretary desk by our front door for a long time. I knew I probably wanted a book case and had my eye out for one that was just the right size. Ding-ding-ding! We have a winner! I love how this beachy bookcase makeover turned out! Last […]
