Hello Dear Friends!

I have been spending quite a bit of time in my Studio

doing Quite a Few different swaps! 

I find it takes me a while to Create and Craft my Pieces.

My Grandpa would say I was as 

'Slow as Molasses in January'!

I don't know... I do find it a Process. 

I can have one Idea in my Head in the Beginning

but the finished piece can be Completely Different! 

Well if I am Just Slow 

or 

too Detail Orientated and a Perfectionist,

All I can say is I am Having Fun Every step of the Way!!

~*~

What is your Creative Process? 

Does your Piece Evolve as you Create like Me?

Or........

~*~

I have been creating some 

Digital Collage Again. 

( Talk about a Slow Process...for me anyway! Lol! )

This Lovely Beauty  

and the 

Paris Script

is from Karen of the Graphics  Fairy!

Oh my Goodness!

I cannot Tell you how many Beautiful Images I have from Karen 

waiting to become a Piece of Art!!!

So Many Possibilities!

So much FUN to be Had!!

Thank You Karen!!! 

Steam Punk Digital Elements 

from Brandy Murry's,

Time Traveler Collection

~*Curiosities*~

is a Label for some Mixed Media Collections

I am putting together.

 ~*Hope you have Enjoyed my Little Bit of Whimsy*~

 Hello Everyone and 

Welcome to my Studio! 

I want to start off with a Big Thank You 

to our Very Gracious Hostess 

Karen of My Desert Cottage!

Yay Karen! 

Thank you so Much for this Wonderful Party!

 

I Have to tell you that my Studio is Teeny Tiny!

I have been Banished to the my Bedroom 

but Shhh.. don't tell anyone..

I really Love having my Studio there! 

My Mood Board is the First thing I See in the Morning.

I Love waking to  my Creative Muses!

 My Vintage Altered Bottles 

I created with Nancy Maxwell James!

think I just might have to make some more of these!

 

  Studio Right

My Inspiration for this Lamp came from PB,

They wanted .. Wow!  

A Lot of Money 

for their Lamp!

So I decided to come up with My Own.

This is Made with my Own Collection of Images, 

A Tomato Cage, 

Office Depot File Clips,

and A Pull Chain Lamp Kit from Home Depot.

The top is an Old Bedroom Ceiling Light

(Circa 1970's)

That I found at a Local Thrift Store.

Black Spray Paint was all it Needed!

Using my own Collection of Images 

made it More Personal and Fun not to mention 

How Beautiful they are Illuminated!

 

  The Big Picture.. Well the Tiny Picture!

   I Love these Old Watch Faces.

 This is my Mood Board.

 I Like to Have my things Out so I know what I have.

I am kind of like Dory from Finding Nemo....

Short Term Memory.

 

  I Love Old Books....

  I Love using  Serving Pieces for Display. 

They are Wonderful for Organizing your Collected Pieces.

Did I tell you about my 

Love Affair with Buttons and Lace?!!

After Visiting most of your Blogs...

I have discovered I am not Alone! Lol!

 

  Don't they Look Scrumptious!

 

 Aaaa Yumm!

  

 I started keeping a Project Box. 

It just helps me to stay more Organized .

   

 

  ~Rue Lafayette No 33~

I Made this for Organizing My Collection of Jewelry.
