THIS WEEKEND SHOW- COME SAY HELLO....









2014 Spring Shows.. Whats New!!!

Hey there.... I've been working hard on some beautiful and vibrant additions to my collectables.
I wanted to have the first one ready for our first show and I just made it, barely. It made its debut at the Lido Village Market in Newport Beach last weekend. I will be talking more about it in a bit, but allow me to give you a quick review of our Lido event.


Here is our booth space at the Lido Village Market.

Take a good look, so you know what to look for the next time you visit us at any of our upcoming shows...


My pocket watches are always an intriguing piece to experience...



TouchOfSoulfulCreations-Owner/ShaRhondaHouston product line was also at the show. Her floral hair accessories,mason wine and margarita glasses and bejeweled journals are always a shoppers favorite.They nest comfortably with my 5x8 canvas mixed media artwork.


Speaking of favorites, I can't seem to keep my purse holders in stock. I'm so glad they are fun to make, I always try to change the design a bit. This collection had glitter in the resin which gives the purse holder image a more "lucid" appearance. Very cool to see in person!


These girls are taking an up close look at the purse holders...
All in all, the event was lots of fun and we met some great and friendly people.
We look forward to doing this show again...hopefully this summer!



***NEW ADDITION.***

As promised, now lets review the debut of my new piece. These are metal stretch band ring watches. Yes, real watches that work great and battery is replaceable.The bezel comes empty, which is the cover-face of the watch. This is the section of the piece that I add my art work and design.


Lets take a closer look..... 



I create my digital image and reduce it to fit the size of the bezel.
I then print, cut, adhere. Then I hand place each swarovski crystals.
The last step is mixing, pouring and setting the resin.



I sometimes used S_Crystals, or seed beads, or S-Opals.
I will continue to play with my designs and evolve with different designs.
The face opens on a spring hinge. Here is a view of the inside watch piece. 


To introduce the RING WATCHES, I created this advertisement and will be
sharing them at the upcoming shows.

Well, that's about it for now, 

I hope you are excited about spring, its here in all its glory and
ready to shine into all our lives...I will be making more posts on what I am working on....
Its a little crazy right now, I'm booking new shows, I'm working on new product and I
want to also make time to show you what I'm working on. Stay tuned....
