Mermaid Painting

I added this mermaid painting to my store yesterday. The inspiration came from a painting I found on Pinterest. I love the colors of this one and the misty feel it has. Do you dream? I do! Maybe she is dreaming of the rose garden she will one day plant. I have yet to plant mine, but I can dream✨✨✨12x16 stretched canvas.

A New Painting

I have been in the studio painting these past two weeks. The painting above is a vintage inspired 8x10  on canvas board.I like painting painting pictures this size as it’s easy to find frames. The board will fit into most photo frames if the glass is taken out. I painted two at the same time and this one is in my shop. I decided to keep the other as the Mary ended up resembling my mother😊

Bunny Love ❤️

It’s all about rabbits this summer and learning there personalities. Rabbits are a little on the messy side, so we are trying to find creative ways to make it work. It is summer right now and I would not even consider putting one of these sweet little things outside. The jersey wooly does molt and I have one right now that is really losing his coat in a funny way, but the new coat is coming in fairly quickly. I spend lots of time online looking at all kinds of things rabbit, but enjoying every minute.

This is Pearl and she is a real doll baby! She is a talker. She purrs and honks and makes all kinds of sounds. It is so funny! I am thinking I need to make her a little crown for photos after all she is a little princess. Princess Pearl!

Spending Time With The Woolies

There is not much going on in the studio lately because the rabbits are growing so fast and we are trying to spend as much time as possible with them. Each Rabbit has its own personality and it is so much fun to watch. It also takes time to learn how to care for them. I spoke in the post above how I spent two years looking for the Jersey Wooly breed here in Florida, I would run across breeders, but only to find out they no longer had them. I am thinking it probably has something to do with heat and wool. I am learning so much about them on Facebook groups. Sir Precious and Puddin are now 14 weeks and both soft balls of fluff, supposedly they will lose this baby wool, but that has yet to happen. I am not sure if that will change how they look or not, but we are so enjoying getting to know them!!!!

Lots of Bunny love ❤️ 

Two years of searching for a Jersey Woollie

We added two little balls of fluffy sweetness to our family this past week. I have been searching for two years for a Jersey Wooly ( Woolie ). I saw a picture of one on Pinterest and thought it was the cutest thing ever!!!! I ended up getting two and we can not get over their little personalities. Adorable is the word that keeps popping in my head. I can’t help but wonder why it was so hard to find one because they are just so sweet and full of personality! Not much breeding of JW here in Florida. 

 The Gray ball of fluff is named Precious

Tiny Rabbits

I am having so much fun making these tiny rabbits! They are all hand stitched, so I can carry them anywhere to work on them. They are stuffed with wool and then painted with acrylic paints. It does take a while for them to dry, but I love the way they look after the paint. I have always loved little character rabbits, so I am pretty pleased with the pattern and will soon add it to my shop.

This little rabbit is all dressed up in her period attire 

I have everything needed to hand sew them right by my lap in case I find a moment to sit down and stitch.

This one is a boy for sure! I love how each one takes on there own personality!

Did I mention that I just love them! 

Making a pomander

The gadget used is called a lemon zester ! I thought it was!

I also would like to mention that I use a gold sharpie marker as it does not show up as much as some colors for drawing on the design.
