Eggstravaganza Countdown: 6 Days To Go

A couple of years ago when I decided I wanted to start making paper flowers, the first kind I made were these:

I still like them. Very simple with a bright jewel in the center.

I make them with very thin wire so they look good in all kinds of vases. Vases made of wood...



...and vases made of books.

I like to mass them together in a big jumble.

You can too. Just come buy some at the Eggstravaganza. April 9.

Eggstrvaganza Countdown: 7 Days To Go

Lots of tiny folded pieces.  

Pieced together to make five petaled lovelies. 

And crowned with a dazzling jewel. 

Because butterflies need a place to land. 

Eggstravaganza in one week. 

Eggstravaganza Countdown: 8 Days To Go

Guess what these are.

They're my shelves in my workshop full of RDCB pages that I've removed from books that I folded. 

I have boxes of them now. 

And stacks on tables. 

But check out my new obsession. 

Butterflies made of RDCB pages!

I love them! I've added a magnet to the back of them so you can pin them to your fridge. 

Or hold your favorite picture to your bulletin board. 

And they'll be on sale at the Eggstravaganza next week. 

Butterflies are free!  Well actually $2 each. 

Eggstravaganza Countdown: 9 Days To Go

Nine days to go until Eggstravaganza and what could be hiding behind the rich black cover of this RDCB?

It's one of my new favorites:

Ever since I saw this paper, I wanted to make this book. I love the subtle pink, gray, and taupe.

It really highlights the color of the pages.

And the black edge of the cover really sets it off.

Will this book be available at Extravaganza? Believe it!

Eggstravaganza Countdown: 10 Days

Spring has sprung! How do I know? The usual way. 

I saw a snake in my driveway.

Oh, and the new azaleas in my front yard are blooming.

And because my wreaths are looking forward to Easter!

What says Easter more than plastic Easter eggs and neon pink plastic grass?

How about a folded bunny?

This bunny is destined for the Eggstravaganza Craft Show at Klein United Methodist Church on April 9. Starting today I'm going to count down the days with pics of what you'll be able to see at my booth.

The bunny book is folded from an RDCB with a cherry pink and taupe diamond pattern and coordinating pastel watercolor-y endpapers. 

Wouldn't it look great sitting on your bookshelf to remind you that Spring is here?

Much better than looking for snakes in the driveway. Trust me.
