Bee Orb Pendant

I made this necklace from recycled materials in my house. Yes, that is a bee, I found it already dead and I put resin on it to preserve it. People frequently stop me to ask about the necklace, and they either are disgusted or amazed by the little buddy in there.

I have such talented friends.

Tucson Postcard

I was browsing stuff I have made, and found this picture of a postcard I created from a picture I've taken out in the Tucson desert. Made it for Alyson and Liesl. Cacti can be real dirty.

Bored? Got it.

I use to spray paint stencils onto shirts, but I found this method to be fun too, and definitely more permanent.

Tip: Use hairspray to stick the stencil onto the shirt.
Another reminder: Make sure the spray bottle isn't drippy, it could really fuck up a lot of things for ya. I learned the hard way. (Sorry Mary Beth!)

I made this shirt trying the bleaching method my first time and thought it turned out very well. :-)

Farmer's Market

I decided last Sunday to check out the downtown Farmer's Market in SD. It was great, reminded me of a compact version of Bloomington's. I think this might be my every Sunday adventure, especially if I get the small booth to sell my artwork (cross my fingers).

I also got this scarf, which I shouldn't have bought. Shut up.
