My Mom, the Lamp Genius
My mom was some kind of lamp genius. She could make a lamp out of anything, I kid you not. The lamp above was from a tea canister she picked up somewhere. She made many a lamp in her day, and as they say, they broke the mold when she passed away. Mom was unique…

New Project
I am starting a new project, which I hope to have completed by the end of this month. I should have started it earlier, as it is a project I am doing to launch a friend's new book, and typically, with things of this nature,there is a deadline. Things like organizing this new studio have…

The space between the tall cabinets is not terribly wide (48"), so hanging an unfolded quilt…

My job is to unpack these things and find…

Cabinetry
My cabinetry is in! I don't have much time to post today, but wanted to share a picture of my entire wall of storage in the studio. I have four tall 36 inch wide cabinets and two shorter 24 inch wide cabinets. Do you think that will be enough space for all my project boxes…

Spring is in the Air
Look at these buds just bursting open! I am so excited to feel a hint of spring in the air. I have an elevated back deck that gives me the feeling I am up in a tree house, and one of the trees that shades it is starting to do some very interesting things. As…
