Pie anyone?



Just one example of the variety of things I can do with the silver plated goodness that I pick up at my favorite antique-y stores. I can make several shapes and they come in all sizes. I'll have 3 at the Craft House this week. Taking orders now!

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.
