Merry March to you!

Wow...Lovely March is here.

I am so happy...our snow melted and there is alot of green grass out there.

The green colors are so beautiful...life renewing!

To me...March is all about the green!

I painted this lil lady with shamrocks and thought it would be perfect for the March calendars.

I have a new little pattern:

Chenille stem doll ornaments pattern

Make these Chenille ornaments in no time. Artwork for dolls included!
These dolls are made using my doll faces... I painted.... a couple different leprechauns, a sassie lassie, bunny and cat. The images for faces are great resolution...they fit on one page...but can be print over and over.

I have pictures with all instructions....its super easy....simple supplies too! I give extra ideas too. Make a bunch for you and your friends!
Ornaments measures: 5 1/2" x 5"

There are 17 doll faces to a page. Copy artwork or print artwork again and make limitless dolls.
These dolls are great hanging in holiday trees, on gifts, would make cute wearable pins, great for craft shows and fun for your spring decor.

The cat's have a tail...big eyes!

This is an example of the doll heads sheet.

The one in the pattern is super great quality....all my own artwork.

You can add string to hang, put a pinback on back, glue to a wooden block or an old spool, add to a wreath and much more!

More examples of how you can use the chenille stem dolls...put on top of a pot of gold.....

Hanging from a couple ornaments too.

Other stuff I recently made:

You know how I loved my precious cat Froy, who recently passed away...I made a little froy ornament of him...he is holding his favorite toy that I called rainbow snake.

This makes me smile and not so sad.

I painted this large painting of a girl and her butterflies.

It was fun and really was therapeutic. 

Magic really comes from doing whatever art you like to do. 

I take online art classes to learn something new...I love mindy lacefield ones....check out her youtube videos!

Have a Wonderful March!

Oh Blarney!

Oh Blarney ....St. Patrick's day is upon us!

I took a few pics of my holiday decor...this my cross stitch piece and two leprechauns.

I have a really long skinny tree that is perfect for any holiday...now it is decorated with all my shamrocks and tags. 

I really is festive!

This tree was pretty cheap from hobby lobby during Christmas. 

I've had this leprechaun forever...he never gets into any mischief. 

I collect colored glass for my windows...

I put each color in a different box so I can get to the right ones when needed.

This is a fun assortment...my father is the little boy in the photo.
