I made a bunch of terrariums yesterday. Bowser decided it was something to fluff his tail at.

He thought my work lacked “taste” so he made his own improvements.

Bowser is giving me constructive feedback on a new project! Aww.. how helpful!

“You should put birds on this! Mmm.. I like birds!”

It has been raining for a long time.

I finished this journal last night. Love the bright colors.

I did this doodle last week, when we brought Bowser to play with a house full of cats and dogs. He ended up somehow climbing up inside a recliner and hid for about 3 hours. Poor gato.

This is a dishtowel that I cut from a large thrifted blanket. There are three designs in the works, and this is the first- the little worm that tells you to eat dirt.

I just whipped up this marker case, basically for free! Fused plastic bags and a reclaimed jeans zipper.

I re-did the binding on my new art journal, and I’m determined to.. do stuff with it I guess. I haven’t written in a journal for a long time, since all I seem to write are to-do lists, but hopefully I will find neat/meaningful things to capture in this journal.

This isn’t a pic of the journal btw, it’s just a mixed media piece I did that sums up how I face a blank page.

This is what I actually made today.

I’ve been inspired to try and keep an art journal again. I don’t think I ever had much of one, and it’s been a long time since I’ve kept a writing journal as well, but I took the time today and made a special journal just for me. The binding isn’t the best and I might end up modifying it, but we’ll see how it goes.

On top of the art journal are two tiny notebook pendants fashioned out of metal and paper. The reporter-style one is my favorite although the craftsmanship is admittedly amateur—solder everywhere! Oh noes!! Call the jewelry police!

It seems as though whenever I try to take pictures of my accomplishments, Bowser always manages to steal the spotlight. Even so, this photo cracks me up.

“Mmmm.. thread! Tasty!”
