show teasers

Slow goes the turtle and slow goes I.
Still in process of documenting my work as I've had difficulty using Word program; and to figure out pricing whoa-ho thats a whole new venture in itself.
At least I was able to figure out how to fill out the gallery forms, lets hope they email back alright as my Word forms sure don't want to behave for emailing. Who ever said computers would make life easier, bah humbug, make trice the work load for me.

On a to a lighter song, I wish to share a couple of the interesting nests that I have built.  Enjoy!

 This one is made from the dryer lint after I washed a red wool blanket. The leaves are some craft leaves picked up at a garage sale last year though I found they were pretty crumbly so I washed a layer of white glue on them to help hold together.

And here we have eggs, yes eggs coated with wasp paper and painted orange inside so they glow.
Don't they look just lovely on the paper bag. Texture combinations, o-how I love the textures.
Have a wonderful weekend!

On the other hand the more you work with computers the more familiar you get with things and the whole thing becomes easier.

Hi Tess, I hope things are going well for you. You seem to be really enjoying making the nests. Hmmm, when I say I'm nesting it means I am cleaning the house. I like your kind of nesting better. :)
I have a link I'd like to share with you, which is also posted on my blog if this doesn't work. It's by a fiber artist I think you'll enjoy the video.
