It has been a few weeks since I have posted on my blog I realized.. I've been busy making art. There are lots of new videos on my youtube account.. I've made several new ATC's for the OFB ATC group and attended the Home Thunder Games as well as the OKC Yard Dawg games.. And on top of all of that I've been suffering from major migraines... So to say the least it has been busy for me... But I like to stay busy, don't like to just sit still, if I do I'll just go to sleep. LOL... For those of you that didn't know I also make glass beads. I've not been able to make any for almost a year because I moved my glass studio out so my mother could live with me for a year... I'm hoping that I'll get to set it back up very soon now that she has moved into a house with my brother James... But I still have a few beads so I decided to have a give away through my youtube account.. Subscribe to my youtube account and comment on the attached video and your name w...

How I set up my Video Camera, which is actually a digital camera that is video capable. I used materials I had around the home and purchased: 2 lights, (wiring supplies) and a gorillapod tripod. So far I think this works for me, maybe it will help you in finding a better solution for you? If you have questions please feel free to ask.. A special Thank you to my Husband Henry for helping me.. Have a blessed day...

I was talking to a friend at work about places to buy things and she shared the following websites with me.. The first three websites are deals of the day. Offers that are only good for one day.. Get them while they last.. Some are great steals and some are so so.. It depends on what you are looking for.. http://www.craftysteals.com/ http://www.scrapbooksteals.com/ http://www.peachycheap.com/ This website has a lot of cool embellishments and supplies. http://www.frugalities.com/ A always faithful place to shop for me: http://www.joann.com/ I love all the specials that they have. I got super lucky on Thanksgiving weekend and got some great bargains on Cricut cartridges. I've been getting the newsletter from Cricut and like going to their website when I need some inspiration: http://www.cricut.com/ And I must go weekly to http://www.hobbylobby.com/ to see if there is a coupon! lol... I always print at least three. Today I went to Hobby Lobby to buy some glue and took my husband.. ...

A guided tour through my 11 by 14 "studio". My husband calls it my crap room. lol.. I hope you enjoy the tour.. Thanks for stopping by my blog. Linda

Last night I did my First Video.. Well actually I created more than one.. lol.. I did one video, watched it and decided that I could do better. The second video was better and that is what you see today.. It was hard to decide what to talk about in this first video. There was so much more that I could share, but I was running out of time! lol.. SO I guess I'll just have to save it for the next one.. I hope you like this first video, an introduction of me to you.

Video -The Setup For a while now I have been wanting to do some videos so that I can share some knowledge.. But I felt I didn't have a video camera that would work. Well the other day I got to thinking about the little digital camera I have and remembered that it did video.. did a test and I think it will work just fine.. My next delima was getting it set up where it could record what I was doing... Finding the right angle is hard when you don't have the correct tools. So I did some searching on the web and decided that I wasn't going to spend big money for some crazy contraption.. I purchased a little bendy legged tripod at the "W" (those that know me know I hate this store) and brought it home and proceeded to figure out a way to capture my projects via video... Here is a couple of photos of my contraption.. My husband laughed really hardily when he saw what I had created... I thought I was pretty clever.. The only expense was the little bendy tripod the rest wa...
