Let's see if I even remember how to do this...

Wow, it has been a LONG time since I have used the Blog. I have been struggling creatively for a few years now. This little guy has recently taken over my life...my Grandson Cole. I'm going to see if I can figure out how to update things here, I need to delete the items for sale pages, I am still selling on Ebay and Amazon and I'd love to sell through this Blog but it will take some time to get things changed. Bear with me.

Scarf Wreath

This summer I painted my front door purple...not just any purple but kind of a Barney purple! My house is a medium denim blue color so it looks awesome together but it definitely calls for non-traditional Holiday decorating colors-a traditional red and green wreath was not going to cut it. I scoured Pinterest and pinned some ideas but I am really into a "use what I have" attitude right now so I was struggling to find anything suitable. I saw one idea that intrigued me-a woman took an old sweater and cut it up and wrapped it around a wreath form....hmmmmm......I didn't have any old sweaters( major closet purge last month) but I have a few scarves that I made during my crochet phase that are ridiculously long and hard to wear. I pulled out a brilliant turquoise one and a metal wreath form(the foam one is too thick once it's wrapped for between my doors), I simply wrapped the scarf around it,let the ends drape down and wired a few dollar store snowflakes onto the front so the scarf is still very usable someday. The color is perfect!

Gelli Print Journal

I took an online class called Monoprint Bound and learned a bunch of gelli printing techniques as well as how to create a fabulous journal with them!
This is pretty much the first creative thing I have done in close to a year...can you believe it?

Everything is BRAND NEW and in perfect condition. If you see something you like you can email me at morningsunstudio@hotmail.com and let me know-I can send you a paypal invoice or if you live local you can pay me in person with a check or cash.

Gelli printed card

I put together a cute thank you card using one of my gelli prints. I used a foam stamp on the wet paint then put the paper down, it pulled some layers of leftover paint underneath red-love that!
