One afternoon after seeing a very cool collage of old beer bottles on pinterest, I was googling for inspiration.  I typed in "vintage foods" and did an image search.  As I was scrolling through the images a cereal box caught my eye.  It was a Kellogg's Frosted Flakes cereal box that brought memories of my childhood.

I decided it was time to make a Grrrrreat collage of my dear friend Tony the Tiger!
Unlike most of my collages that evolve and change throughout the creation process, this one was pretty straightforward.  I drew the cereal box image in pencil and then found magazine pages in the colors I needed.

Then I cut and glued, cut and glued, cut and glued... for what seemed like a long time.

It was fun to work through the process.  The letters - especially "Kellogg's" were a challenge.  But, it slowly began to come together.

I really like the end product!

My Space to Create!

2/4/2015

For a long time, my husband and I shared our home office.  He had his neat and tidy little desk and I had my huge suppose-to-be-a-kitchen-table desk.  My area of the room included my desk, a couple of bookshelves and, of course, the floor in between, and it was filled with papers, markers, paints, glues, scissors, and other crafting supplies.  The situation was, to say the least, not ideal.  I was afraid to make too big of a mess, and my husband had fears that my "contained" mess might eat him alive.
So, about six months after my two boys decided, on their own, that they wanted to share a bedroom, I decided that the extra room would be my space.  

My Art Studio.  WoooHoooies!

One weekend, this past summer, I moved all my "stuff" made a space that is perfect! It's bright and colorful and I can get messy and create to my heart's content without bothering the rest of my family.

I LOVE simply it!
