Newsies...

Just listed this starry necklace...CLICK HERE to check out the Single Star Necklace.
P.S. Now that we are Texans, my 4 year old thinks every star is a "Texas Star" and thought I should name this one as such. They get 'em early around here! :)

Painted Rocks

Aren't these so pretty? I keep seeing these painted rocks all around and I just love them! I think I might have to paint a few for myself. Some inspiration...

This could be a fun kiddo project too!

Patio Chair Makeover

My goal was to have our cute little back patio outfitted with furniture by the time fall weather hit. Since we're in Texas now, and still reaching into the upper 80's, I'm assuming that time is now? I don't know, it doesn't feel very "fall" to me, but I'll take it over 110˚.
Anyhow, I spotted this set of vintage metal patio chairs and table at a garage sale for $5!!! All they needed was a coat of spray paint. (I thought).
That job fell on my husband, who said they first needed sanding. He did a great job, and I'm glad he was in charge of that part of the project since I would probably have rust-eaten chairs already by now if it were up to me.
Spray paint colors are limited, but we picked green for the chairs, and yellow for the table. I wish now that I would've done them all the same color, but the husband quickly informed me that he was done with spray paint for a while, and I don't want a green table bad enough to do it myself.
I'm just ready to put my lazy bum in those chairs and enjoy the balmy fall Texas weather!

Before:After:Hard at work (and doing tricks):

Kin Necklace

I can't get enough triangles lately. That sounds funny. But it's true. As a design component they are fun to work with - basic, but so much potential. And aesthetically when you're talking about style, they are a nice contrast to the often too florally girly things I usually wear.
Here's my latest piece the Kin Necklace (I'll be making one for myself too!).

From The Tribe

My latest treasury is also a wish-list of sorts. I would looooove anything from this collection!
