First, I was honored to be the "in the studio of..." artist for Portals Zine. I really love Portals (and not just because I am in it this issue) - they really always have great articles and photos.  Check them out here.

I also did some projects for an upcoming book - I was so nervous about it, but I saw the cover on Amazon, and there on the bottom right hand corner is one of my things!  How exciting!  Check it out here.

I had to welcome a friend into the blog world by helping her out with her banner.  It was easy peasy since she takes such wonderful photos.  Please go say Hello and welcome to Lilia of Flea Market Studio!

New items in the shop - and a Valentine's Day special which you can cash in on by clicking here.

I also just made this for a swap - what do you think?  I am a bit nervous about sending it...

Lastly, I had to cancel a anticipated trip to visit my good friend Leslie...(which I am going to try to reschedule so I can still see her) but the reason is a big one.  We bought a house!!  Our first house.  (with a BIGGER craft room!!) We are so excited... we close on Feb 27th, which is when I would have been away.  Any one have any advice for first time home owners??
