During the fall, winter and spring months, I get to stay warm and toasty at school–having the ceramics kilns running and getting up over 1800 degrees insures that the art room stays cozy many days!
Now that the spring semester at school is over, I’ve brought my load of goodies home and taken a [...]
Want to learn more about polymer clay? In addition to the upcoming Cabin Fever Clay Festival event in February, I’m also teaching four one-day classes at Front Range Community College, through the Continuing Education Department.

I’ve been making babushka faces and lentil beads all week. Sounds like a horrid recipe, doesn’t it? but the “lentil” part refers to the shape, and even though I’ve been sticking my heads in the oven all week long, things are looking good here. I’m committed to using up old scrap clay for “bead [...]
I’ll be bringing my hand-colored textiles, ceramic and polymer clay faces, beads, baubles, bags, and books to Nomad Beads at 1909 9th St., Boulder, Colorado for a special Sunday Sampler from 12-4 PM on Sunday May 9th.
Celebrate the memorable moms in your life with components for making Spirit Dolls, Hand Beads, Face Pendants, [...]
Sounds like some sort of adult video title, doesnt it?? But its really just about a doll whose head and feet are bound up while she’s decorated.
Hmmm, maybe that doesnt really sound any better….perhaps its time to show pics instead.
Last week I saw the beaded spirit doll (using my polymer clay face) [...]

oh, I do love the time of year when summer is over, winter isnt here yet—and the fall weather starts to make inroads into the garden. There are wonderful holidays at this time, including Halloween, when I’ll be in Houston Texas at the International Quilt Festival again with Judith Skinner, taking lots of [...]
I’ve been having fun playing with face masks, dolls, and beads. All the cotton jersey that I’ve previously dyed has been cut into fat quarters for making into doll bodies and spirit doll kits. I’ve got some premade bodies that were dyed as well, and I’ve put together dozens of kits. Now I’m ready [...]
I had fun with my creative co-workers decorating the Christmas window of the local bead store here in town. We just kept adding more and more…fused and slumped glass bowls, hand dyed silk scarves, dolls, the miniature quilt store, (which we decorated for Christmas too), a polymer clay covered wagon and even Golde in [...]
There’s a movement afoot this year to promote handmade items for decorations and gifts during the holidays. Now, this is something we’ve ALWAYS done here at my house, because I love the excuse to bring out the creative opportunities. Lots of homebaked cookies with colorful icings, an almost historical archive of all the years’ [...]
