I finished this one-of-a-kind, glammed-up Valentines garland halfway through the day today so…I’m gonna leave it up for a while! ❤️ It was a really fun way to use up a bunch of tiny treasures and scraps of materials I’d been saving — ribbons, beads, rhinestones, tassels, dollar store ponies, cell phone charms, aluminum foil, broken earrings, etc etc etc. The finished piece includes weaving, embroidery, appliqué, and collage, among other techniques.

 

A friend of mine is starting a group for artists and crafters to meet up (virtually!) and work on projects together, so I made this little cover image for the group! I’m really looking forward to these hangouts, especially since I haven’t been able to visit friends in so long. I need that creative companionship!!

 

A little emotional processing project…
