True Portland Day

It's official....it is cloudy rainy and cold! True Portland here. And it is a small preview of the next future 9 months. It seems to always get the creative juices going though! I played soccer this morning at the dog park with my two labs and boyfriend. Now this afternoon is yet another newspaper day.

I had success in making many rolled pieces the other day, and so now I am just creating pendants, rings, and maybe even a bracelet. It spawned thoughs of all of the options for news paper. There are so many things to make. I often like the frames and bowls made with recycled magazines, but I enjoy the thin, flat finish, black and white qualities to the news paper instead. So today I may experiment with that as well. Clocks, sculptures, etc.



These are some of my past made newspaper pieces.

A friend of mine and I are also going to go around Portland and pop into a few shops with selling potential for some of my pieces. It should be fun! And that reminds me...I have to update Etsy with some of my fabric pieces!! AH! So much to do today!
