What I've been making

I'm all over the place with  ideas. I don't think there's ever enough time and energy to create everything I want to, but I sure do try! Here's a few things I've been making lately:

Screen Printing. I've always wanted to do it, and finally I took the time to learn how. It's not an easy thing to just pick up if you've never screen printed before. This took me a couple weeks of research, along with some trial and error...but at last I did it! I made this chicken print from a sketch I made of my own chickens. I'm so excited about it, I now want to print chickens on everything I own! I'm quickly coming up with another design so this does not happen =). Here's my print on a practice shirt, not perfect...but I love it.

New Leather Purse. I mentioned in another post how I'm getting my leather groove back. Well, it's still there. And this butterfly purse is another beauty I've been working on. I have a feeling I will take me a while to finish, but i wanted to share my progress. This piece is the front and back of the purse. The carving/tooling is not complete, and it's just the raw leather with no stain or pant on it.
Redecorating. We got a new couch last weekend, yahooooo! I'm so stoked about it. I changed the pictures on the wall behind it to coordinate a bit more with the new color scheme (our last couch was bright red!). I had to take a picture because I've been admiring my new set up so much.


That's all today folks!
