New Art O8, over and done

Yeah..we survived! A big shout out to my momma and my aunt Mar, I don't know what I would have done without their help. We were spraying Obama t shirts all-night-long! I would spray and mom/mar would iron. It was a pretty good little system we had going..:) the show, in all, was awesome! We had such a great time. The people were so friendly and excited, the energy was grrrr-eat, the hotel is a trip-if you can ever make it to check it out, or even stay the night, I highly recommend it. It seemed a little odd at first, please come into my room..one man even thanked us for inviting him back to our room..I swear he just walked in on his own!! :)..but that's how it was, easy, breezy..casual. I would love to do it again! I'll be posting the "leftovers" on etsy..stay tuned!




the wall of stencils...too fun!

New Shoes

I've been playing around with the idea of stenciling shoes..yup, pretty darn fun! I have this pair of size 9 canvas flats, stenciled with the rock n roll signature stars and diamonds..and I would like to do more! Send me your "blank" shoes to stencil, and for 25 bucks I'll personalize them for you! Contact me through the comments for more information!

Craftaluma..What a Show!

So, pheww...what a show! For the record, this was my first big Rock n Roll Crafts show. I did a lot of prep to get ready..can you believe I threw my shoulder out stenciling? Yeah, that much stenciling...;0 Of course, totally worth it as I was pretty happy with how my table looked..not to say that I don't already have like 10 other projects I already want to get started on..

Here is the PCM table..two of the elusive members are hiding behidn the red flowers..Cheryl, I can see you hiding..;)

This is some of the relative calm, as the vendors were still setting up.

and here is some of the storm as the doors opened. You might notice that white goody bag the woman in the green is toting..we gave those out to the first 50 people in line..those bags went f.a.s.t.!

Here's Alison "the Needle", showing off her goods..the embroidery to her right..and some of Moxieville's cool kitchen towels..

This is Tami and her sister..and some of her too cute plushies!

I know, I didn't get enough pictures..I did get some video of the Bluebellies..they Rock! I just want to say that Craftaluma was AWESOME! All of the Vendors were so nice and sooooo creative. Let's see..Knitted neck ties, Miniature Dromedary's, custom screen print tshirts, owls and owls on everything, unpaper, plushrooms..I was in awe..and the energy of the crowd and the grooving tunes from Jeff Toriano and then The Bluebellies..it truly was a show of crafts, curiousties and wonderment! A big huge, gigantor THANK YOU to Cheryl, Tami and the Craft Mafia! ...I can't wait for the next one..I'll let you know when..

In the meantimee..be sure to check back as I start to post my goods for sale!
