The Cooking Channel

Well, I might have actually found a TV show that I would be glued to... WAY too much.
Stumbled upon this (as I do many things:) via an e-mail marketing piece from the Food network. They always send great recipes, etc... and amongst the little ads in every one of these direct mail pieces- was a small icon for the cooking channel. I bit, and now I think I might be excited by TV again.

Just sayin.

Elegant Thrifter

I have found myself more and more finding GREAT things at thrift shops, antique malls & garage sales that I feel need a new purpose. Recently, I've been fascinated by old spoons. Indulging me, my fabulous husband showed me how to use the air cutting wheel in the barn to cut spoons in half. I use the handles you see. To make jewelry!

I've been scouring the web to find sites for inspiration for repurposing things to make art. Here is a nice look at "Thrifting" that I came across.
