Neon Pink Painted Canvas Tote

So... our new house is under construction due to some very unexpected major issues. 

It has made unpacking tricky to say the least. 

But, as I was opening boxes and seeing what's what I found a huge bin of fabric paint and some white duck cloth. 

SCORE!!!

Within a few hours that white fabric had an extreme makeover. 


Since I need a tote as we've been doing all our errands by foot, I got to it.

What do you think?



As it is my first bag, I'm pretty happy with it. And we ran errands with it and it was super-comfy and held loads of heavy things without a hitch. Yay!

Stained Glass: In Progress


Moving generates a whole lot of cardboard so I decided to reframe that thought as moving supplies a whole lot of substrates for art

We'll call this my 'recycling period' so it sounds artsy, K?

My husband has a open 'window' above his office door that sounds just moseys through like you would not believe. And his video chat meetings do not need to hear our history lessons... or worse. 

So I'm making him a 'stained glass' cardboard window filler. I'll post proper pictures when it's done.
