My SW Chair is Finished

Well, I put the hide on the chair. This is a Bespaq chair I recovered the back and stool top with the faux cowhide I made. I can't wait to put it in the room. Next week I am going to reupholster the chairs I will put up for sale.

Thanks for looking,

Cattle Roundup

Well I am making/painting miniature cowhide. It took forever just to do this small bit-6" x 8" and the background is not as yellow as this. I can not wait to upholster the chairs and sofas with this faux cowhide. At the rate I am going it is going to take a week-and it is sooooooo tedious. As soon as I have enough faux, I am going to cover a chair-should be up next week.

The BIRDS

Well, I am gathering Southwest stuff a little at a time-parrots, now. I have poured all the pots-now all I have to do is fire the white ones and decorate the white and the terra cotta ones. I am making SW mirrors and faux cow hide to cover a few chairs I have. I am not going to have alot of stuff to sell. I am doing the faux cow hide tomorrow-I think. I have had sinus and allergies and am tired all the time-I have to push myself. Everyone where I live is suffering from allergies. Well, I should be posting soon.

The Beginning Thoughts

The mini club I belong to is hosting the SAM birthday party next Febuary with a SW themed room. I love Southwest-the main living part of my house I live in is SW. I am making alot of SW things to sell and some terra cotta pots to donate to my club to sell to help finance the SW room they are providing to the Birthday party. (run on sentence if I have ever seen one) I don't have any pictures right now-but will next week.



I have become very organized lately. I put all the supplies for the SW projects in one box. I will be able to find everything.



The pots I am making are from a terra cotta slip that has really stained the molds. I have had to make more molds to pour the white ceramic slip. I have two more molds to make-which translates into 4 molds.



Can't wait to post again-I will have "art". I will post finished SW items for sale on my web site.
