Then I have had some gardening delights. My rose bushes I planted about a month or so ago have started to getting a few little roses. This is the first on the new rose bushes.
So this has been a busy week in crazy town. It looks like if all the stars align just right I will be getting a new stove. That would be really swell as the oven part is a some days I will work some days you can piss right off kind of stove. The top has one last living burner. Oh what a fancy bitch I will be cooking shit in more than one pan at a time. Don't worry if I get one I am sure I will write you all about how happy I am and put up a photo of it.

Intending on spending the rest of the day hanging out with my old kitty and turning this shirt into a sweater for my dog for Fall. Yes I plan ahead so sue me.

So I have been on a very creative streak. Last week I saw this great post by another artist. http://almastoller.blogspot.com/2011/04/how-to-make-soap-box-canvas.html?m=1 While I did not have a soap box on the ready it inspired me to make you of the Cheez-its box. Ok so I ate the last few Cheez-its. Don't you judge me you bastards it was for art. Any how I did it a little different using fabric and this is how it went. First I sealed up the box and put on a couple of layers of gesso. Sadly I only got a photo after one coat because I am easily distracted. Then I added some fabric and mod podge to it. As you can see I needed another coat of gesso or a thicker fabric. Still this was for fun so I went with it. Now first thing is the top was kind of rough so I see why the paper works better. I added a little prism because why the hell not. Then I gave it a dog theme. I painted both sides and this is what I came up with. It was a fun project I will definitely be trying more versions of this.
Love Cappy Sue I have been busy this week. Dolls are coming a long and recently been on another kick of must try new things and finish up old ones. We have had some ups and some downs. First the ups.
Reindeer that is fucking right I said reindeer. The other day I bought a purse at the thrift. I found this bag folded up tucked inside of it. It is a old Montgomery ward bag. It had the cutest image of a reindeer on it. Being the holiday whore I am I wanted to turn it into a decoration of some kind. So I cut out the main image and modge podged that son of a bitch right onto a canvas. Then I painted it read around it. Added a black border and white polka dots. Then I glazed the whole thing because I don't want anything fucking up my deer. All in all I am pretty happy with it and it will go away till the holidays then come claim a position in my home decor. Next up was my wild crazy art doll. She will be in the shop this next day or two. I love how wild she looks. Her clothing is hand sewn by me and I am greatly enjoying her rats nest of hair. The downs well they involved felt. I love to felt but am still learning. It was meant to be a rainbow colored hot air balloon. Instead I made a rainbow garlic bulb. Now what the fuck do I do with that. Oh wait I have a giveaway coming up on my Facebook page I may know just the thing. I hope this has all given you a laugh. Love Cappy Sue |
