I don't create without my music! For me some good music is an essential ingredient to the work that I create. So here is a small sampling of some things that I cram into my ears while I'm working.

Super-cheesy house music by Bad Boy Bill


all sorts of shit from John Digweed ♥

Just a random blog entry about happenings in my life. :O)

Hello dolly!!! I got this lovely new doll in the mail earlier this week and I named her Pearl.

NEW Ice Ice Baby necklace in the shop!

I don't often get a chance to keep any necklaces for myself but when I was making this Skull Candy necklace I fell in love with it instantly!!! It's a keeper!! ☠

TheLuluBean sent me these awesome DAVID LACHAPELLE (my favorite photographer) postcards
and I just got them in the mail!!
I ♥ them!

My awesome sister Krystal put this crocheted banana split in her Etsy shop and I can't even tell you how many times I looked at it! I was soooooo tempted to order it and I shouldn't have hesitated. It sold. I will have to commission her to make me one!

Mmmm!~ I got this amazing soap (banana buttercream OMG!) this week from CozyMoments on Etsy. It was my first purchase from her shop and I'm so thrilled with everything I ordered. I also ordered a White Chocolate Macadamia Nut soap and a bar of banana soap. I just want to gobble it up!

On another Jones Soda bottle!

Wheeeeeeeeeeeee!!!! I found out today that I'm on another Jones Soda bottle!!! One of my Etsy customers that was inquiring about a custom order had a feeling it was me on her Bohemian Raspberry bottle and sure enough.... it is me!! I'm so surprised about it because I was on a rootbeer bottle awhile ago and Jones notified me about it and sent me some labels. I had no idea I was on another one. I'm really happy about this!!! The cool thing is~ I LOVE RASPBERRY!!! What an awesome flavor to be on. Sad thing is~ the pic I submitted was in color and it got printed in black and white. Oh well.... I shouldn't complain I suppose!

If you can locate this bottle please contact me!

How do you know when a movie is good....

...when you can't stop thinking about it. My mom recommended this movie to me- The Boy In The Striped Pajamas. I must admit that I was pretty skeptical at first because I'm not too into history. The movie is about a young boy who is 8 years old and his father runs a concentration camp. When he is forced into moving he is faced with solitude and loneliness. One day he goes out exploring and he finds a young boy, who is his age, on the other side of the fence. I won't tell anymore... just watch this movie. If you enjoy watching movies that will choke you up and make you want to cry you will enjoy this film.

PINK! is for dogs

My pooch, Bianca, would just adore all of the pinkalicous dog goodies. Look at all these sweet lil pink things I found on Etsy for your precious little pup! ♥ There is no need to go to Petco or Petsmart. I go there quite often to get things for my dogs but I think that might be coming to an end soon... this stuff I found on Etsy is total eye candy for dogs!

♥ I even included my little sis in it! The chi with the pink sundae hat is hers!

Where I spend my time....

Anyone who knows me well knows that I am a total hermit. I wasn't always this way but because of some anxiety and health issues this is what I have become. I don't mind it so much really. I love my home and I love being in it and I'm fortunate enough to work full-time from my home!
So here you go~ an inside look at the places in my home where I spend a great deal of my time. I'm sharing photos of two rooms inside my home... one is my "office"/workroom and the other is my laundry room/resin lab!











I may be a hermit but I'm not totally alone all day! I have my two babies.... JoJo an 8 year-old min-pin and my 14 year-old pekingese Bianca! I seriously do not know what I would do without them. They really do keep me company while my hubby is away at work!

Get WRECKED!

Back in the fall of last year I discovered a book on Flickr titled WRECK THIS JOURNAL by Keri Smith. So I headed over to Amazon and ordered one for $10. And let me tell you.... this was maybe the best ten bucks I ever spent! I had the time of my life "wrecking" mine. I feel guilty though because I was on a roll with it for awhile... doing pages every day... and then I just quit. I really would like to pick my book up and finish it soon. I am hoping that now that spring is around the corner I will be inspired to complete all of the tasks inside. Once I finish the book I might even want to start a new one and try out some different things in it.
