I recently upgraded my Silhouette software to the Designer Edition and could not be more pleased. There are so many fun new features but the favorite has to be the new rhinestone tools to convert designs into rhinestone templates. Import any image into the new software and it will create a rhinestone template for you!
Here’s a quick tutorial on how I created an easy rhinestone camera template using the software….or you can just download the one I made at the end of the slideshow:
These might look familiar. I’ve made them before….but I made a few more. I love making photos into pillows, sachets, paperweights….they make perfect gifts….and I even use them as pattern weights. CONTINUE READING

The wall space above the countertop was just empty space. The area used to be a huge sunken living room before we remodeled a few years ago. We added a wall at the end of the room to create the storage space.

I wanted to make something handmade and personal for my friends’ wedding recently and I decided on an oversized wine barrel inspired tray. I used a precut wood table top from the hardward store. They actually come in several sizes. This was the medium size: CONTINUE READING
Here’s another painting I did last weekend from reclaimed wood….a rustic American Flag for our outdoor living area. It took under 45 minutes to paint:
