I went to the library today.  You know, the building where they have books. :-) Anyway, I was looking through the shelves to see what caught my eye.  Sadly there are ZERO books about dollhous...

I have so much catching up to do.  I have been doing some blog reading but haven't really done much commenting but hopefully that is going to change starting today.  It is time to move forward ...

As you may know, I'm slowly packing up our current home and moving into our new home.  This includes my WRECK of an office.  It has been one of those weeks.  We have a saying..."Sometimes you ...

With some real life stuff happening, my muse seemed to leave and I was at a loss of what to show you folks.  Well I don't have a lot to share, but I thought I would give you a sneak peak at w...

I'm really getting into the excitement of making videos for YouTube, but after completing construction of Lisa's Country Cottage I was at a loss of what to film next.  Oh the life of an artist, ...

Today I spent about an hour outside.  It was a much needed break from the fumes of refinishing wood floors and I had to do something while the first coat of Poly was drying. It was about 80F d...

Some of you may know this, but most probably don't.  Besides my miniatures, I'm a huge fan of Tiki and the Tiki Era. I'm not talking the brightly colored stuff that shows up in the party stores ...

People suggested that I work on a harvest theme for my workbench so I have taken that suggestion and tried making some baskets and food.  Some of you may remember that I have made some bread and...

This past weekend I was able to play around with my miniatures.  A forum friend (Thanks Barb!!) told me how to use empty capsules and resin to make bottles/potions.  This was the first time ...
