Alison requested a vase for Christmas and of course I was more than thrilled to oblige. I ordered precut tiles from Ebay and I strayed from my usual color pallet (which I hope she liked.) The tiles were Van Gogh copper and Van Gogh green. They are called Van Gogh because of the pattern on the tile.
I spend most of Sarah's 30th birthday making it. Thanks for not being able to drink Sarah or I don't know when I would have finished it!
Time has been flying by these past few weeks! It's a Christmas miracle I've finished all my shopping THREE whole days before Christmas, this has never happened in all my shopping years. Although we were still waiting on 3 gifts in the mail up until the day before, that snowstorm in Philly I think caused some delays, eek!
The office holiday party at the Witherspoon Grill Restaurant in Princeton was fabulous. The food was great and everyone had a great time. Since I'm the one that organized it (not that organizing consists of much more than finding a place and making a reservation but whatever) I'm always nervous on how it will work out.
Somehow we pulled off Secret Santa at work. It doesn't sound difficult but when it's participants are comprised of 90% men it's not so easy. I did come home with Monster #2 though :)
This blog is about the adventures and struggles of a 20 something 30 year old woman who tirelessly tries to find time to expand and hone her arts and crafts skills. I write about arts and crafts, sales, art supplies, craft ideas and my life.
My new venture is stelladot.com/monicahaley. It's jewelry. Sparkly, shiny, super cute jewelry. Host a trunk show, you won't regret it.
I love all things art. I'm forever trying to decorate my home and find one cohesive style. When I'm not working my 9-5 or spending time with my family and friends I try to find time to be crafty.
