Here are some shelves I made with my dad:
Three separate boxes that can be put on the wall in any arrangement... I used to have 2 in the bedroom and 1 above my desk at my last house. Now they are all in the living room as kind of a statement art piece, and for storage.
I like that the shelves can be re-arranged, and we can also change the items on the shelf if we want a change of color or theme. The backs of the boxes can be unscrewed and detached if I want to change the actual shelf color. In fact, they used to be teal (and a little dirty and worn from being in 4 different apartments) so I just updated them with a fresh coat of blue!
Here they are full of STUFF!
A NEW addition to the NEW house is a really cool print from Henri Silberman. My dad made a frame for it and matted it with the brightest blue! I love it.
My Grandmother sent me some beautiful blue silk fabric:
I am so excited to use it in the house... I think I am going to recover some chairs. We'll see!

the biggest project yet
the new house!
I have put the artowork and crafts on hold temporarily because I bought a house!! It is going to take a while to get it just right. There are still boxes to unpack and artwork to hang and thing to be organized.
You can see some "before" pictures here. I will be sure to post more when it looks good.
More sewing projects and more tote bags on the way though. And a re-vamp project for my first bottle cap frame. Stay tuned!
