Wooden Crafts
I paint on jewelry and treasure boxes, frames, clothes pins, and framed mirrors. I paint on a signature pattern and use metallic acrylic paint to give them a holographic effect. The main themes that I paint are Japanese inspired cherry blossom trees and Ancient Egyptian art.
Paper Crafts
Cards: I make handmade cards. They are literally handmade (lol), by that I don't just decorate onto pre-made and pre-folded blank cards, I actually cut and make my cards. I cut them into a unique square shape where it gives you more blank space to write in or allows you customize the inside of the card yourself. The materials that I use to make the cards are card stock, various scrapbook papers, stickers, ribbon, wire, feathers, and cut outs. I also made the envelopes myself using brown shipping paper.
Notebooks: This is another functional craft that everyone can use. These notebooks are decorated with vintage magazine cut outs, scrap book paper, and other various decorative papers. The foundation of the notebooks are made out of cardboard and blank computer paper.
Fabric Crafts
Felt Play Food: These play foods are unique and colorful to play with for any age. Most of the play foods are going to be gourmet desserts and fruits. They are plush and 3-dimensional to give an almost real affect. The play foods are made out of felt, various fabrics, fabric paints, and poly fiber fill.
Braided Recycled Fabric Lanyards: This was inspired by my large amount of barely used clothing with colorful patterns on them. Lanyards are a pretty handy tool when it comes to your car and house keys.
