I have started painting again after many years and I have decided that I will sell at a few local craft shows and fairs in my area.  I have also started a Etsy shop.  I know a few of you still check back here from time to time....and no I won't be painting crocks this time but I hope you like what you see.

New Prim Fabric Creations......So Stinken Cute!!!




OK I decided last week to try something new.....I thought it would be cute to have my crocks filled with things...pumpkins....snowmen...sunflowers...gingerbreadmen...crows...you get the idea...well this is what I came up with ....and I sold everyone of them but 2....I of course am sewing my little fingers off for this weeks show at King George.....

I found a a great coffee stain recipe and I am dunking them in a mixture of coffee, vanilla and cinnamon and then baking them for a grungy look...they smell great.....I also rusted my crocks to give that old look......
Wanna see what I am making this week?     ahhh not quite ready for pictures yet but think black cats and candy corn......but here is a sneak pic at the TURKEYS !!



This Week....the Last Show of the Season!!!!!


I will be at Garfield High School in Woodbridge, VA this Saturday, Dec 12th from 9 to 3. I actually still have a few of the whimsical flower crocks and even more of the Christmas Berries. I have been very busy painting and stitching. There may be a few "last show of the year" sale items !!!!





Mention you saw the website this week, purchase any 3 items from booth and receive 50% off 3rd item!!!

Candle Boxes

Candle Box with Battery
I love how these came out. I even grunge up the candle to make the drips show. A LED bulb gives off a soft yellow flicker and uses AAA battery that is replaceable. This comes with the cute pip berries around candle. Available with birdhouse, plaid pumpkin, harvest pumpkin or favorite saying with star garland.$16.00 (inc battery)

Add Berries around Candle?
Special requests, color choice

Handpainted Stoneware Crocks

I handpaint on many sizes of crocks. Most designs can be placed on any size crock. I do ship orders. But because crocks and jar candles have alot of weight to them, I will calculate your shipping cost after order placement. You will have an 5.00 charge for shipping and then I will contact you if additional is needed. I also offer pick ups....I do a show every weekend till December 15th.

Painted Candle Jars

I paint on a variety of jar candles.....I love the look and feel of the glass when I get done. My jars are primed, painted, glazed, crackled, stained (love that part) and them glazed again to protect my painting. They have a great glow coming through the paint and when you have burn the candle just place a little votive candle inside and use forever. Candles range from $ 10.00 to $25.00
