Holidays for a week to the big apple Iv never been there before. I'm looking forward to the museums, galleries and live shows.Will take lots of pictures, and climb the statue of liberty, if that's at all possible, we will see. IM going to look like such a tourist but better a tourist than a terrorist.. they should all be rounded up and shot, and not with a camera.. Sorry but people like that don't make this world a better place.Whats even worse is they feel uncountable for there actions.
Be back in a week..

Frames

<
This is only an idea,that I tried and my not work for everyone.
I have some art that has to be framed for shows that are soon approaching. I like to frame my art it always looks better with a nice frame. The cost is unfortunately too expensive for me to go to a proper framing place. So I opted to go to Hobby Lobby and buy pr-made frames. With the Canadian and American measurements being so different I had to pick up 3 frames larger than my canvas, my husband cut them down to size in a matter of a day. Glued, hammered and stapled them, some minor nicks and cuts that can be fixed up with paint and putty and I'm off to the races with frames that look professional with out the cost. If my husband didn't have the proper tools I doubt I could have done this, with all said and done I saved my self about 190.00

Taking a break

http://bigglassbeads.blogspot.com/ There is no harm in slowing down and planting your garden and working out side. If your like me it refuels my artistic side of the brain and I cant wait to get started on new projects again.Sometimes I think that's it, I'm never going to make jewelry again, or paint, but all I needed was a couple weeks away from it all. Now I cant wait to get back to it.. like seeing the world through new eyes. So if your overwhelmed, take a break. Have a Snack on life. Start over with new eyes.
