Sew Sweet!


Well, my first solo show is up! That's super exciting for me. The plans are underway for the reception this coming friday... And I'm actually nervous! It's weird knowing my friends/family/whoever are going to show up just got see my work in a cafe... Hopefully some of them like it!! I'm pretty shy at showing off my work...



My neice is turning 2 this friday, and seems to like balloons and candy (and airplanes and flags) more than anyone I know! I found this cake on cakewrecks, and plan on using it as my inspiration for her birthday party!




Anyways, hope to see people friday night! I'll be the one blushing in a corner somewhere...

Art, Work, and Cakes, Oh My!

I have been working on art, getting more cake orders (3 due this weekend!) and also working full time doing some temp work for the next month and a half. Needless to say, it's getting a little hectic.

I have not gotten a start date yet, but sometime within the next month or two, I should be having a show at a cafe downtown Oshawa. More details to come, I hope! My cake section is getting bigger, and that is not because I have put it before my art. I want to leave some surprises for the show.

I recently sold the piece, "Sewing Bird", which I have mixed feelings about. It's always wonderful to know that other people like and want your work, but it was the first piece that made me fall in love with buttons. It started me in this direction. Luckily, I know it is going to a fantastic home!

If anyone is interested in purchasing my work, please let me know via email. They are all for sale unless it says otherwise beside the title of the work. Thanks!
