Long time no see!

Hey all!  The holiday whirlwind has died down and life and routine are getting back to normal. Happy 2014 by the way! (Won tons were definitely consumed) It has been an embarrassingly long time since I've posted anything here. Hope to get better about that, but I'm still working on those grad school apps so, ya know, priorities.

Anywho, I'd love to share a project I was working on before the holidays. It was a gift or I'd have posted some pictures before, but here they are now!

There you have it!  It was a fun challenge, although it made walking into my workroom in the dark mildly startling! 

And now I need to clear some shelf space in my workroom for this beauty!

Aw yeah! Jar of buttons.

Ta ta for now.
