Add Color to Your Rental Home - or Any Home

The Reggae Argyle Collection My friend is moving into her new condo the beginning of next month. Like most rental homes, the walls are painted 'rental beige' and the landlord is insisting on keeping the 'neutral' color. Note to landlord - beige is not a color, its a shade - at least in my opinion. She decided that she would inject some color into her rental decor by adding fabric to the walls, adding some colorful throw rugs, put up some window curtains and add some vibrant throw pillows. She asked if I would design some pillows that would (1)...

The Way My Mind Works

Psst, I have a secret. I am going to reveal my design process for the pillow pictured below. Here goes... Create your characters as a separate file - that way you can use them over and over. [caption id="attachment_316" align="alignnone" width="400" caption="Summer Fun"][/caption] I was washing my car and my son kept getting in the way, so I turned the hose on him. My niece found it hilarious, so she grabbed the hose and joined in on the  fun.

Pretty Painted Butterflies

My best friend's daughter is turning 7 this week  and I was thinking of making her some earrings from some butterfly Swarovski crystals that I have been saving for the occasion. But last Friday she called and told me that she wanted me to make her something pretty for her new room - they just moved to a new home - I was more than happy to do it, in fact, I had a design that was inspired by her. You see, like me, she loves butterflies. [caption id="attachment_153" align="alignnone" width="398" caption="Catching butterflies"][/caption] We were hanging out one weekend and...
