Coastal cool tags and embellishments

Playing with clay and seashell molds

Embellishments and cool bottle shapes

Fiskar scissors and gift tag ideas

Creating stoppers and key chains, 

drawer pulls and doodads,

bathing lotions and potions

summer fun continues at the cottage by the sea... 

The quote of the day

...just a little creative fun in the studio today

using bits and scraps

the white knotted handle off a gift bag

entwined with a remnant of black satin ribbon

bits of an old nylon luggage strap cut

to fit around a pastel pencil

then fabric glued and pinned in place until it dried

a gessoed board bordered in black

and 2 holes drilled at the top

then the center painted with chalkboard paint

and the quote of the day

added for inspiration becomes

the perfect gift for your Francophile friends !
