Upholster your Toms!

Want to jazz up your Toms? Easy - just send them to Flavorful Fish and she'll custom upholster them and they'll be one-of-a-kind!

Another great idea!

I saw this online and thought - what a good idea! If you're like me you have loads of bits of inspiring ephemera and crafty paper bits that you don't want to stack in a pile or put in a scrap book - you want to keep them handy - right? Well this looks like a simple solution - a handy sling that hangs on the wall! You can make it as long or as short as you like to fit that unused space in your studio. Directions are here at Penny Carnival.

Updates and surprises!

So what's been keeping me so busy that I've missed a few daily posts here? Well one of the things I've been doing behind the scenes is designing a few new holiday Cartograms for the Cartolina app. Here's a sneak peek at one of the new designs. In a couple of weeks we'll be adding some of the holiday Cartograms from last year's Seasons Greetings app to the regular Cartolina app - and including a few new designs too. These will be a *free update* and I hope you love the designs! Stay tuned - you should see the update soon! AND we'll be launching our big surprise project in about 3 weeks as well - I can hardly wait. I hope you've signed up to be first to hear about it - you can sign up on the left << over there!

Ephemera sheets

What do you think of these new sheets from Anthropologie? I sort of like them especially when they are combined with other pieces. From here.

I saw this ages ago and ran across it again yesterday. Concrete lace by Doreen Westphal. It's so beautiful isn't it? More information right here.

It's been a while since I checked out the lovely and unusual collections at Lost and Found - and they are bigger and better than ever - check it out.
