IPad Stand using Book Covers – Repurposed #1

Book Repurposed – Fast and Way Too Much Fun
Having finished the portfolio I was feeling pretty good about getting back into cutting and gluing stuff together again and wanted to get right back into another project. I save scraps – can’t help it. Some time ago in an effort to clean out my side of my husband’s garage I started to throw out…

Vintage Ballerina Music Box – Renovated
Renovating this Music Box was a lot of fun. In the next few days I’ll post the Tu Tu, Dress-Up Trunk and Tiara Box that were made to go with the music box (some days it a very thin thread for me 😉 Spark (more like an explosion) of an idea: My granddaughter loves to…
