I have long been drawn to cobalt blue glassware.  I had some wooden Mason jar ornament cut outs and put the two ideas together and came up with a cobalt blue Mason jar for each of the four seasons.  This was a fun project and hopefully you will enjoy it too!

This is my original design.  This piece was published in Painting E-Zine in January of 2018.

I originally designed one of these ornaments and painted it on a resin sand dollar and wanted to make it available as a pattern and ended up designing two more ornaments to go with it!  Don't these just make you smile?  These (I think) are really so cute and I hope you think so too!

I had three Halloween cat-oriented themes running through my brain and finally had a breakthrough – put all three into a set of tags!  They are enchanting and so feline!

I came across a few of these wonderful old metal trays and picked them up.  When I got home I was thinking of what I could do with these.  Of course the first thought was “paint them” and the second thought was Fall and pumpkins, and leaves and berries!  It didn’t hurt that had just harvested my pumpkins and it was a very good year for pumpkins!  I used a set of leaf stencils I have (information is included with the pattern) but they of course can be hand traced for this pattern.

This piece came directly out of my childhood memory of the night before Christmas when our Mom would read this wonderful book to us right before bedtime.  I found this wonderful surface that looked like a stamp to me and thought it would be just perfect. The surface is a wood composite. The house mouse is all tucked in with presents and popcorn under his bead and through the mouse hole to the living room you can see that everything is all ready for Santa to come down the chimney.  Looks like the house mouse also helped himself to a bite of cookie!  This was a fun piece to create and I hope it brings happy memories to you as well!

A starlit winter’s evening with a full moon shining down upon a quaint New England village with lots of snow and a stray whale cruising by…..the idea of this cooled me right down (was a very hot day).  One of the benefits of designing and painting for me is that I get to escape into my own little world. I don’t always know where I am going but the journey is always fun and rewarding.

I found this adorable green enamel pail, spring was on its way and I thought the pail would be wonderful with spring chicks in red boots! There are three designs for the chicks and these can be scattered in whichever way you choose.  A pail or container of any size can be used!  If you have a container that you want to paint and then add the chicks, that can be done!  The green color of my enamel pail is very close to DecoArt Hauser Medium Green.

This is my original design, one of which I hope you like!

I was inspired to design these ornaments after hearing one of the songs from the Sound of Music, My Favorite Things, written by Richard Rodgers.   I decided to use the star cut out shapes as they are readily available and usually very low cost.  The front and back of each star is painted and stenciled which is a feature I really like – an extra step, but really nice!

I first came across this Scottish nighttime prayer in a very small gift shop near Seattle, Washington and it stuck with me for all these many years.  It was a small piece of wood with lots of decoratively painted flowers on it.  I was in IKEA recently and saw these wonderful square mirrors and immediately thought of the saying with a painted night scene, a candle in the window of a red house, plenty of stars and plenty of fireflies in the tree tops.  I thought it would be especially sweet in a child’s room but I could see it in any room.  Of course, there is always a "Halloween angle" to this as well (ghosts, ghouls, oh my!). This is an original design.

I have always loved lambs/sheep and when designing Christmas tree ornaments, the first thing I thought of was how do I incorporate sheep into the designs.  This is what I came up with.
