Inspiration
I was doing a little web surfing this morning and found this website called Polyvore. So much inspiration! I could spend the whole day looking at all the eye candy. I love this!

I am wondering :)
I am thinking. Why not make a room full of pattern and color. Like a quilt. Why not? It may be busy, but it will be interesting and fun to do. I will just look at the walls as a big blank canvas. Maybe I am a little wacky in the head, but lets go for it!

My computer is back up!
This is just a quick post to let you know I am still here. I have not been able to blog due to computer problems. I am still having a few problems but we are working on them. I have made good use of my time off line. I have been painting one of my rooms and will share that in the next post, but you will need a pair of sunglasses.LOL. I have decided after years of keeping it neutral that I am going to just go for it and surround myself with color like the pictures below. I am actually using the first picture as my inspiration. It was really hard to use that green on the ceiling, but I did it and I love it! to see more of this fabulous gypsy style visit Jeanne Boyol

Happy Friday
Those of you who have been reading my blog for awhile know how I love to give myself little challenges. Yesterday I thought to myself how tired I am of digging through the really ugly jewelry. This stuff is just plain ugly. 
I pull it all out on the table and told myself to make something or throw it away.
Waxed linen just happened to be in that same box and that was just perfect.
So I made a pouch out of the waxed linen and then began to embellish.
That little gold piece was an earring.
This is what I came up with. I would by no means call this a masterpiece, but I thought considering the junk it turned out pretty good. I'll wear it! The DH was not to crazy about it, but I never listen to him anyway.LOL. 
Have a great weekend!

Paper Tape Roses
The tape was sitting on the table, so I picked up a piece and just started playing and this is what came out of my play time. I ended up making four sets of three. I have never seen anyone make these, so I did a search for paper tape roses. I found roses made of crepe paper and duck tape, but no paper tape. I am sure it has been done. I made them like you would ribbon roses, but better than ribbon because it sticks to itself, so it keeps it's shape. I then ended up giving them a wash of color. I needed this color for a project I am working on or I would have tried rolling them in glitter. 
What to do on a rainy day?
It is raining and I am sitting here at the computer finding all kinds of cool things. I thought this was interesting and really pretty accurate
