Holiday Time!!

Great news the holiday season is upon us and I have been busting my tail trying to get new purses made. I have about 55 purses created at this point with at least another 45 in production. Follow the Facebook link to see the pictures. I will definitely be at the St. Columba (1801 E. 3rd Ave in Durango) craft fair on December 4th from 8am to 3pm. I'm also trying to organize a public show in downtown Durango before Christmas. I will let you know as info. becomes available.

Carvers Sale was a success!

Spring Purses Coming Soon!

I'm back in the workshop with new fabric and a desire to create. I am attaching photos of one of the purses to get you in the spring mood. Enjoy!

The chair is done!!!

Kathy and I finished the chair!!! It is currently on display at the Bank of the San Juan's Main branch in downtown Durango. The chair will be auctioned off on Thursday March 18th @ 5:30pm at the Durango Arts Center. Buy your tickets in advance because it will sell out!!! Advanced tickets are $15 and are available at the Durango Arts Center Box office or the KDUR station. Please go to the KDUR website (KDUR.org) for more information and to see the other artist work. Thanks for your support!

KDUR Chair

So I am procrastinating because that's how I function. I need to have the chair for the KDUR fundraiser done by tomorrow, I haven't started so we'll see how well I work under pressure! The radio station requested that we try to recycle materials to create our work. I went to the thrift store last week and found some clothing that is past its prime in the fashion world, but will be fantastic on furniture. I will post pictures of my treasures so you can see how they are adapted to the chair. Finished product to be unveiled this week!!

KDUR Fundraiser

So it's a new year and a new opportunity to create a fabulous new chair for the KDUR fundraiser "Furniture as Art". Like last year, Kathy and I will be combining our creativity and artistic talent to create a fantastic piece to be auctioned off for the benefit of the college radio station. This year they request that the piece have as much re-purposed material as possible... so the wheels in my head are turning trying to think of how to reuse materials for the chair. Burlap coffee bags, plastic shopping bags.... what to use? Stay tuned to see what we think of!
