Vintage Sewing Notions Shadowbox

Hello all. So I just launched the Vintage Workshop blog for my work. It's got a picture of me and Amy, my boss on the new entry. It's a great place to visit for project ideas and new techniques for creating great craft projects. The website is blog.thevintageworkshop.com

Also, I just listed my newest project on Etsy.com. It's a vintage sewing notions shadowbox. I used actual vintage sewing notions and a beautiful cherrywood finish wooden frame that be stood up or hung on the wall. Check it out.

So the heat wave sweeping our area has keep us all inside for days. The weekend we'd hoped to again to go the lake, but with my husband having to work today coupled with the heat - we decided the best thing to do was to stay home. Bummer. This give me the chance to do some more art work.

I currently am working on a wall hanging for church and another altered art wall hanging out of a leatherette bound western set of Time Life books. I don't like the western themes so I'm turning one of the covers into a wall art piece with a floral theme instead. I hope it turns out okay. This one is just a test case. I have like a set of eight books I got a garage sale. I'll take some process pics of this one to see what new things I can do with this.

Til Next time...Cheryl
