Perhaps it would have been nice if I'd mentioned I was taking a break. Truthfully, life ran me over... between work and family obligations I was swallowed up, but in the last few days I have found more time to pursue my interests.
I may have finished my altered box.
Spent quality time with my friend and a dress form over the weekend. I added strips of antiqued book pages and feathers to the bodice. (Thanks for the inspiration Carla)
Then I made some new polymer clay pieces last night. The next step is to get them made into pendants and on Etsy, that's if all the planets align.
Lastly, this arrived in my mailbox today. An order from Design Talented One containing a bundle of sari dyed ribbon. It is 25 yards of beautiful color that I can't wait to play with it.
Well that's it for me at the moment...perhaps it's a lot but I think I've been out of touch for the last 10 days. Now that I am back in the world of blog I'm headed out to check on my fav's.

I wanna make a shadow box now....Thanks!
Hey Angie! Glad to see you back. I was about to shoot you an email just to make sure all was well. Looks like your break really rejuvenated you. Your altered box is fantastic! And your other little goodies turned out real nice too!
ReplyDeleteI buy my seam binding from a vendor on Ebay. I guess their prices are okay. I like that they have a huge selection of colors. Let me know if you want their name.
Glad to see you back!
