Where Bloggers Create party.....

Here is a my studio! I love my new studio.. I have recently taken it from ALLL PINK to creams and lace. I got alot of my inspiration from Karen Valentine's studio and was so excited to meet her in March at Petticoats on the Prairie Spring Show on the Road in Waxahachie, Texas. I'm having a horrible time with the new blogger this week. This is my 3rd attempt at posting. So we will go with it this time.. even if the pictures don't mesh with the descriptions!!! Hope you enjoy looking at my little place in paradise! I love heading into my Art Studio to create, read or just watch tv. It is my favorite place in our home! It's full of vintage lovlies and photos of my favorite people! Dolls... lots of dolls which I love! Enjoy.. I can't wait to look at your studio! Feel free to follow my blog if you would like. I hope to blog regularly and keep you coming back! xoxo, Jennifer

My Pottery Barn bulletin boards that I redid with cream and lace.. It had been a bright pink & green. I love my vintage photos that rotate on my board. Vintage toe shoes adorn the side. I love vintage horse or fair ribbons and have one hanging on my board. I collect them.

My Covered In Glitter manequin that lives in my room and travels with me to my shows and Art Events. Her sash changes color according to the event. I'm working on a cream/lace sash for her. She is LULU!

My computer desk... It stays very full with a few vintage jewelry boxes that hold many baubles and vintage jewelry to repurpose. A 3 tier lace holder. My Cricuit is hiding behind everything!

My chair.. totally inspired and still a work in process from Karen's chair!!!

The top of my desk (where I create) you usually can't see the top! Today's work is a summertime journal.. I've been working on for an upcoming class!

Girl's 50's Rock Art Camp~ June 2012

I Love Lucy! I love Happy Days! I love The Beaver!! So... what would be more fun that watching re-runs all summer.... Hosting a 1950's themed Art Event for girls! 4 days of fun! We collaged, painted, journaled, beaded and more! It was a very fun and very pink week of 1950's inspired art! Lexi helped me each day! Mom helped on Paper Doll day and Gig helped on Malt party day. The final day of camp was the perfect time for a Malt party! Complete with hot dogs, chips, chocolate/vanilla malts & 1950's dancing! What a great time and the girls looked adorable in their 1950's attire! Can't wait until our next Art Event.... Just a few of the many photos... I'll post more later of all of the projects.

Where Bloggers Create 2012 Party!

I thought Karen Valentine's Where Bloggers Create 2012 Party would be a great place for me to start back to blogging! I have so much to blog about and just can't seem to get it done! So I am going to play along with the Bloggers Studio party! I'll post pictures of my Scrapbooking Room/Craft room/Art Studio.. depends on the day as to what I call it!! Maybe this will give me the push I need to start blogging regularly and maybe pick up a few new followers and follow a few new blogs!! xoxo, Jennifer

Behind on Blogging... Not me!

So my New Year's Resolution to blog regularly didn't quite take off as planned!!! But not to worry! I can start my new year of blogging today!
I'm taking Jeanne Oliver's "Building a Creatively Made Business!" I've loved all of the videos & can't wait to meet all of my online class buddies!
I'm really hoping it will help me to develop my Website & actually post the merchandise I have on the site & to open & list items in my Etsy shop! I have been very busy creating! I have a lot of new designs... Collections & more ready to launch!! So hopefully this class will jump start my creativity in the business side of my endeavor!!
Hope to have lots of posts in the next few weeks!!
