Things Completed - Or Nearly So

My craft cave is full of potential projects, unfinished projects and things that will never, ever become projects (but I'm still pretending they might).   And the sad part is, I don't want to work on any of them. Fortunately though, I've made myself finish a couple of things and here is a photo of one of the completed projects. I must confess that these have been finished for awhile, I just hadn't taken any pictures yet. I know...I'm a slug!


I painted these candlesticks for my son's 1st grade teacher. Of course, I didn't get them to her, so she won't be receiving them until he's in second grade. Maybe that will be more of a surprise: "hey, here's your teacher appreciation gift from last year!"

Printer Update and Wood Things

I know you've been on the edge of your seats wondering how the printer saga will end. I'm happy to say that I purchased a brand spankin' new printer from Office Depot today. It's a Brother MFC-290C and I believe we are going to be very happy together!

I just wanted to post a few photos of some wooden things I've been painting. I especially love the mirror and candle stick holders with matching napkin rings. Would love to do more of these in the future. These photos were taken at the Beaux Arts Bizarre last weekend. Our booth was on the stage, so we had some "dramatic" lighting. I plan on writing more about the art fair, but for now I would just like to show you some pictures.

These are now for sale at Artlandish Gallery on Walnut Street in Columbia, Missouri. They would make great Christmas/holiday gifts, don't you think?
